Cookie Policy
We use exactly one of our own cookies — to remember your ad-consent choice. Our only third-party cookies come from Google AdSense, and only after you click Accept.
Effective date:What Are Cookies?
A cookie is a small piece of text that a website can store in your browser so it remembers something across page loads. Similar technologies include localStorage, sessionStorage, and pixel tags.
Cookies We Set Directly
| Name | Type | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
sfc_cookie_consent_v1 | localStorage | Remembers whether you accepted or declined advertising cookies. | Until you clear browser storage |
Third-Party Cookies (Only After Consent)
If you click Accept on the cookie banner, we load the Google AdSense script. Google and its partners may then set the following cookies:
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
IDE | Google DoubleClick | Measure and report on ad performance, deliver targeted ads. | ~13 months |
NID | Preferences and safer browsing. | ~6 months | |
_gads, _gpi | Google AdSense | Frequency capping, fraud prevention, and measurement. | ~13 months |
Cookie names and lifetimes are set by Google and may change. For the authoritative list, see Google's How Google uses cookies.

You can reset your consent at any time:
