Cookie Policy

1. What Are Cookies?

A cookie is a small text file that a website asks your browser to save on your device. The next time you visit, the browser hands that file back, so the site can recognise that something happened before.

Cookies cannot run programs, install anything, or read other files on your device. They mostly hold short pieces of information, such as a random identifier or a setting you chose.

Related technologies

A few other things work in a similar way and are covered by this policy:

• Local storage, which lets a site save information in your browser without sending it back automatically
• Pixels and web beacons, which are tiny invisible images used to record that a page or an ad was loaded
• Device identifiers, which advertising systems sometimes use in place of cookies

How long they last

Session cookies are deleted as soon as you close your browser. Persistent cookies stay for a set period, which can be days, months, or longer depending on what set them.

2. How We May Use Cookies

The important point first: the tools on this site do not depend on cookies. The Blog Post Title Generator runs entirely in your browser and does not store what you type. If you block every cookie on this site, the generator still works normally.

Depending on how the website is configured, cookies or similar technologies may be used for the following purposes:

• Keeping the site running correctly and securely
• Remembering a preference, such as a cookie consent choice you made
• Understanding in aggregate how pages are used, so the site can be improved
• Selecting, limiting, and measuring advertising, where advertising is enabled

The sections below describe each category. Where a category is not active on the site, no cookies of that kind will be set even though the category is described here.

3. Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are the ones a website needs in order to function or to stay secure. They are typically set by the website platform or the hosting infrastructure rather than chosen page by page.

Depending on how the website is configured, essential cookies may be used to:

• Balance traffic across servers or keep a page request connected to the right response
• Protect against automated abuse and basic security threats
• Remember the choice you made on a cookie consent banner, so you are not asked repeatedly

Cookies in this category do not track you across other websites and are not used for advertising. Because they support basic operation, they usually do not require consent, and blocking them may cause parts of the site to behave unexpectedly.

4. Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help a website owner understand how visitors use the site: which pages are opened, how people arrived, roughly how long they stayed, and which browsers and devices they use.

Depending on how the website is configured, an analytics service may be enabled on this site. Where it is, the information is looked at in aggregate. The interest is in patterns across all visitors, such as which pages are useful and which are being ignored, not in identifying any individual.

Blocking analytics cookies will not affect your ability to use anything on this site.

5. Advertising Cookies

Advertising cookies are set by advertising partners to decide which ads to show and to measure how those ads performed. This site may display advertising in order to cover hosting costs and keep the tools free to use.

Depending on how the website is configured, advertising cookies or similar technologies may be used to:

• Choose which ads to display, in some cases based on pages you have visited before
• Limit how many times you see the same ad
• Record whether an ad was displayed or clicked
• Detect fraudulent or automated ad activity

These cookies are set by the advertising partner, not by us, and they are governed by that partner’s own privacy policy. We do not pass advertising partners your name, your email address, or anything you type into the contact form or the generator.

Where you are shown a consent banner, your choices there determine whether advertising cookies are permitted. Declining them does not remove ads; it means the ads you see are less personalised.

6. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies come from companies other than us, because running a website involves other services. Depending on how the website is configured, third-party cookies may be set by:

• The hosting or website platform, for delivery and security
• A content delivery or security service, which speeds up loading and filters malicious traffic
• An analytics provider, as described in section 4
• An advertising partner, as described in section 5
• Embedded content, if a page ever includes something loaded from another site

We do not control third-party cookies and cannot read the information they collect. Each provider operates under its own privacy policy, and where one is in use on this site, it is subject to that policy rather than ours.

Our Privacy Policy explains in more detail what kinds of third parties may be involved in running the site.

7. Managing Cookies

You are in control. Every major browser lets you see which cookies have been stored, delete them, and block new ones, either for all sites or for specific ones.

Where to look in your browser

• Chrome Settings, then Privacy and security, then Third-party cookies and Site settings.
• Safari Settings or Preferences, then Privacy, where you can block cookies and manage stored website data.
• Firefox Settings, then Privacy and Security, under Cookies and Site Data and Enhanced Tracking Protection.
• Edge Settings, then Cookies and site permissions, then Manage and delete cookies and site data.

Other options

• Private or incognito windows discard cookies when you close them.
• Browser tracking protection, built into most modern browsers, blocks many advertising and analytics cookies automatically.
• Browser extensions can block cookies and tracking scripts entirely.
• Industry opt-out pages, run by advertising trade bodies in various regions, let you opt out of personalised advertising from participating companies.
• Device settings on phones and tablets include controls for limiting ad tracking.

8. Changes to This Cookie Policy

This policy may be updated, for example if an analytics service or an advertising partner is added, if a consent banner is introduced, or if the way the site is built changes.

When it is updated, the date at the top of this page will change. If a new category of cookie starts being used, this page will be updated to describe it rather than the change being made silently.
