Cookie Policy

Last updated: June 9, 2026

Note: This is a general template. Have a lawyer review it before relying on it.

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how this website uses them, and how you can control them. The site is run by Nick Wharton (“we”, “us”). For more on how we handle personal data, see our Privacy Policy.

What are cookies

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device when you visit. They help the site work, remember choices, and understand how the site is used. Similar technologies, such as pixels and local storage, work in much the same way and are covered by this policy too.

How we use cookies

We keep cookie use light. We use cookies mainly to remember your cookie choice so the consent notice does not keep reappearing, to keep the site working, and to measure traffic through analytics so we can improve the content.

Types of cookies we use

Essential cookies. These are needed for the site to function and to remember your consent choice. The site cannot work properly without them.

Analytics cookies. These help us understand which pages are visited and how people use the site, usually as aggregated, mostly anonymized data. This shows us what is useful and what to improve.

Affiliate cookies. Some links on the site are affiliate links. If you click one, the partner may set a cookie so any resulting purchase is credited to us. This does not cost you anything extra.

Third-party cookies

Some cookies are set by third-party services we use, such as analytics providers and affiliate partners. These companies set and read cookies under their own privacy and cookie policies, which we do not control.

Your choices

When you first visit, you may see a short notice about cookies. You can also control cookies through your browser settings: most browsers let you block or delete cookies. Blocking some cookies may affect how parts of the site work. Turning off analytics or affiliate cookies will not stop you from reading the content.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy as the site and the tools we use change. When we do, we will update the date shown at the top of this page.
