This page explains what cookies we use, why, and how you can control them.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device. They're useful for remembering your preferences across visits and for measuring how people use the site.
The cookies we use
We group cookies into three categories:
- Essential cookies — needed for the site to work. These include the session cookie, the CSRF protection cookie, and the locale cookie that remembers your preferred city. You can't disable these and still use the site.
- Analytics cookies — help us understand which pages people visit and how long they stay. We use this to improve the site. Optional.
- Advertising cookies — set by Google AdSense to show you ads that may be relevant to your interests. Optional.
How to control cookies
We use a consent banner (powered by Klaro, an open-source consent manager) to give you fine-grained control. You can:
- Accept all categories.
- Accept only essential cookies.
- Pick and choose which categories to enable.
- Change your mind at any time by clicking the "Cookie settings" link in the footer.
You can also block or delete cookies through your browser's settings. Note that disabling essential cookies will break some site functionality.
Third-party cookies
Some cookies are set by external services we use:
- Google AdSense — for personalised ads (when you've consented).
- Cloudflare — for site delivery and security (essential).
These third parties have their own privacy and cookie policies that govern their cookies.
Changes to this policy
We may update this cookie policy as we add or remove services. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent change.
