Cookies Policy

This Cookies Policy explains how Golden Retriever Insight (“we,” “us,” “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on goldenretrieverinsight.com. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They let a site remember your actions and preferences (such as pages viewed) over time, and they help the site work, measure performance, and support advertising. Similar technologies include web beacons, pixels, and local storage, which we refer to collectively as “cookies” in this policy.

Why we use cookies

We use cookies to keep the site functioning, remember your preferences, understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it, and to show and measure advertising.

Types of Cookies We Use

Strictly necessary cookies — required for the site to operate, such as page navigation and security. The site cannot function properly without them, so they cannot be switched off in our systems.

Functional/preference cookies — remember choices you make to give you a more personalised experience. They do not track you across other websites.

Analytics/performance cookies — help us understand how the site is used, including which pages are most popular and how many unique visitors we receive. We use Google Analytics (GA4) for this.

Advertising/targeting cookies — set by us and our advertising partners, chiefly Google AdSense, to deliver ads, limit how often you see an ad, measure ad performance, and show ads relevant to your interests. These cookies may record your visits to this and other websites.

Third-Party Cookies and Services

Some cookies are set by third parties that provide services to us:

Google AdSense (advertising). Google and its partners use cookies to serve and measure ads, including interest-based ads based on your prior visits to this and other sites. You can learn how Google uses information from sites that use its services at https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

Google Analytics (analytics). Used to measure site usage, governed by the Google policy linked above.

We do not control third-party cookies; they are governed by the relevant third party’s own privacy and cookie policies.

How Long Cookies Last

Cookies are either session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device until they expire or you delete them. The lifespan varies by cookie and provider.

Your Choices — Managing and Opting Out of Cookies

You can control cookies in several ways:

Browser settings — most browsers let you accept, block, or delete cookies. Blocking some cookies may affect how the site works. For guidance, see https://www.allaboutcookies.org.
