Cookie Policy

Cookies are small files a site stores in your browser. We use them for analytics and advertising. We use Google Consent Mode, so until you consent, analytics and advertising cookies are held in a denied state.

Categories we use

• Essential:needed for the site to work and to remember your consent choice. These can't be switched off.
• Analytics:Google Analytics 4 (_ga, _ga_*) to measure aggregate traffic and which guides are read. Set only after consent.
• Advertising:Google AdSense and its partners may set cookies to serve and measure ads, including personalized ads where permitted. Set only after consent.

Local storage

To avoid double-counting, we store a small flag in your browser's local storage after you rate a guide or mark it helpful (for example vd-rated-…). This stays on your device and is not personal information.

Controlling cookies

• Manage or block cookies in your browser settings.
• Opt out of personalized ads at Google Ads Settings, aboutads.info/choices, or youronlinechoices.eu.
• Opt out of Google Analytics with the GA opt-out add-on.
