Cookie Policy

This page explains which cookies and similar technologies our website uses, why we use them, and how you can control them.

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files a website stores on your device. Similar technologies, such as local storage, work in a comparable way. They help websites remember information between visits.

Essential cookies and storage

These are needed for the site to work and are always on. They do not identify you personally.

  • tcm-theme (local storage) remembers whether you chose the light or dark theme.
  • tcm-cookie-consent (local storage) remembers that you closed the cookie notice, so we don’t show it again.
  • Our hosting provider may use strictly necessary technologies to deliver pages securely and reliably.

Analytics cookies

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site, such as which pages are popular and how people find us. This helps us improve our content. Google Analytics sets cookies such as _ga and _ga_*, which typically last up to two years.

Learn more in how Google uses information from sites that use its services. You can opt out with the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

Advertising cookies

We show ads through Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies to show ads based on your visits to this and other websites, to limit how often you see an ad, and to measure ad performance.

You can turn off personalised advertising in your Google Ad Settings or opt out of third-party vendors at aboutads.info.

Third-party content

Some pages include images or links from other services, such as our blog platform (WordPress.com) or external platforms like GitHub and Firefox Add-ons. When you visit those services, they may set their own cookies under their own policies.

Managing cookies in your browser

You can also view, block or delete cookies in your browser settings, and most browsers let you block third-party cookies. Blocking essential storage may affect how some parts of the site work.

Changes to this policy

We will update this page when the cookies we use change. For how we handle personal data, see our Privacy Policy.
