This Cookie Policy explains how recepemreercetin.com uses cookies and similar storage or access technologies, including pixels, tags, local storage, SDK-style web technologies and comparable mechanisms where relevant.

This policy should be read together with the Privacy Notice.

1. What these technologies do

Cookies and similar technologies can be used to:

  • keep a Site function working;
  • maintain security or prevent abuse;
  • remember a setting or preference;
  • measure Site usage and performance;
  • understand how visitors interact with content;
  • support embedded content;
  • measure or personalise advertising;
  • connect activity across services or devices where a user has permitted this.

The legal rule depends on the technology’s actual purpose and configuration, not merely on the name of the tool.

2. Cookie categories used by the Site

Strictly necessary and security technologies

These are used where necessary to provide a function you request, keep a session or account working, remember a privacy choice, protect the Site, prevent fraud or abuse, balance traffic, or deliver other essential technical functionality.

Where a technology falls within a valid strictly necessary or communications exception, it may be used without consent, although appropriate information should still be provided.

Functional and preference technologies

These can remember choices that affect how the Site appears or functions, such as a user-selected preference.

For UK visitors, the post-DUAA PECR “appearance” exception may apply to a qualifying use where the statutory conditions are met. This is not a blanket exemption for every preference or functionality tool. If the use goes beyond the exception, consent is required where PECR applies.

Where the appearance exception is relied on, users must receive clear information and a simple, free way to object.

Analytics and statistical technologies

These help measure traffic, engagement, technical performance and how Site content is used.

For UK visitors, a narrow PECR statistical-purpose exception may allow a qualifying analytics use without consent when all legal conditions are met. Among other requirements, the sole purpose must be qualifying statistics used to improve the Site or service; clear and comprehensive information must be provided; users must have a simple and free way to object; and personal data must not be retained at individual level longer than necessary for aggregation.

The exception does not cover advertising, cross-service tracking, profiling or uses that exceed the statutory purpose. If the analytics configuration does not satisfy the exception, prior consent is required where PECR applies.

Advertising and marketing technologies

These may be used to measure campaigns, create audiences, support remarketing, personalise advertising or track interactions across services.

For UK visitors, advertising and marketing storage/access technologies require prior consent unless a specific applicable exception exists. The current statistical-purpose exception does not extend to online advertising.

Embedded third-party content

Videos, social-media content, maps, fonts, widgets or other embeds can cause a third party to receive technical information or place/access information on a device.

Where such use is non-exempt, the embed should be blocked until the required consent has been obtained.

3. Providers and technologies

The Site may use technologies associated with categories such as:

  • Site and account functionality;
  • Cloudflare security and content delivery;
  • hosting and server-side security logging;
  • WordPress and WooCommerce functionality;
  • MailPoet newsletter functions;
  • analytics and tag-management services;
  • advertising and campaign-measurement platforms;
  • embedded media or social platforms;
  • performance, session-analysis or user-experience tools where enabled.

Because the exact cookie name, lifetime and provider configuration can change when software is updated, the current technology list should be presented in the Site’s cookie-preference panel or scanner-generated cookie list where that feature is enabled. That live list forms part of this Cookie Policy.

A provider must not be categorised as “necessary” merely because it is useful. Classification should follow the actual purpose for which the technology is used.

4. UK-specific consent and objection rules

For users covered by the UK’s Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), as amended following the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025:

  • a qualifying communications or strictly necessary use can operate without consent;
  • a qualifying statistical-purpose use can operate without consent only if all conditions of that exception are satisfied;
  • a qualifying appearance/functionality use can operate without consent only if all conditions of that exception are satisfied;
  • statistical and appearance exceptions require clear information and a simple, free means of objecting;
  • any non-exempt purpose requires valid prior consent;
  • non-exempt technologies must not be pre-enabled before consent;
  • rejecting non-exempt technologies should be as easy as accepting them;
  • withdrawing consent should be as easy as giving it.

A single technology can have multiple purposes. If one purpose is exempt but another is not, consent is required for the non-exempt use, and the configuration must technically respect that distinction.

5. United States-specific privacy controls

The United States does not use one nationwide cookie-consent rule equivalent to UK PECR for ordinary website use. U.S. obligations can instead depend on the visitor’s state, whether the relevant privacy statute applies to the Site, and what a cookie, pixel, identifier or similar technology actually does.

Where an applicable U.S. state privacy law treats a technology or resulting disclosure as sale, sharing, targeted advertising or qualifying profiling, the Site will provide and respect the opt-out required by that law. A technology is not treated as harmless merely because it is labelled “analytics” or “functional”; its actual purpose, recipient and data flow control the assessment.

I do not sell personal data for money. However, certain advertising, cross-context behavioural advertising, audience-building, retargeting or analytics arrangements can fall within broader statutory definitions of sale or sharing. If such a use is enabled and the relevant law applies, the Site’s privacy controls must allow the legally required opt-out.

Where legally required, a valid Global Privacy Control (GPC) or other recognised universal opt-out preference signal will be honoured for the purposes and scope required by the applicable state law. This is particularly relevant to laws such as the California CCPA/CPRA framework and state regimes that recognise universal opt-out mechanisms for sale or targeted advertising.

The Site does not intentionally use optional cookies or similar technologies to collect sensitive personal information as an ordinary feature. If a future technology would process sensitive data, that use must be reviewed before deployment and any notice, consent or limitation right required by the applicable U.S. state law must be implemented.

The Site may choose to present the same consent interface to users in multiple countries even where a particular U.S. jurisdiction would permit an opt-out model rather than prior consent. Using a stricter interface voluntarily does not remove or replace any state-law opt-out right that applies.

6. Consent controls

Where consent is required, the Site should provide controls that allow you to make a genuine choice. Depending on the configuration, you may be able to:

  • accept all optional categories;
  • reject non-exempt optional categories;
  • enable or disable categories individually;
  • change your choice later through a cookie-preference link or panel.

Strictly necessary technologies may remain active because disabling them can prevent the requested service or security function from working.

7. Browser and device controls

Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Browser settings may affect all sites and can cause Site features to stop working.

Browser controls do not replace a consent mechanism where the Site itself is legally required to obtain prior consent.

8. Tag managers and server-side tagging

A tag-management system may control when analytics, advertising or other scripts run. The legal classification depends on the purpose of each deployed tag and any information stored, accessed or shared.

Moving a tag from the browser to a server does not by itself remove privacy obligations. Where personal data is shared with a third party, that sharing must also be described in the relevant privacy information.

9. Data generated by cookies and similar technologies

Depending on the technology, data can include:

  • IP address or truncated IP address;
  • cookie or device identifiers;
  • browser and operating-system information;
  • page views and navigation events;
  • referral information;
  • timestamps;
  • interaction events;
  • account or session status;
  • campaign or advertising identifiers where enabled.

The data may be processed by the Site operator and relevant technology providers as described in the Privacy Notice and provider documentation.

10. Retention

Cookie duration depends on purpose and configuration. Some are session-based and expire when the browser session ends; others persist for a defined period.

For a UK statistical-purpose exception, individual-level personal data must not be kept longer than necessary for the aggregation process. Other technologies should use retention periods proportionate to their purpose and legal requirements.

11. Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated when technologies, providers, consent rules or Site functionality change.
