Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how W1sdom Prod. ("we", "us", or "our"), operating at www.w1sdom.pro, uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website. It describes what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control them.
By continuing to use this website, you consent to the use of cookies as described in this policy. This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which provides further detail on how we handle personal data.
1What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, or tablet) by websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to website owners.
Cookies are not programs — they cannot carry viruses or install software on your device. They are simply data files that help websites deliver a better experience. Alongside traditional cookies, we and our partners may also use similar technologies such as pixel tags, web beacons, and local storage — all of which serve equivalent purposes and are covered by this policy.
Cookies can be session cookies, which expire when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. They can be set by us (first-party) or by third-party services we integrate (third-party).
2Types of Cookies We Use
We categorize the cookies used on this website into four types based on their purpose:
3Cookies We Set (First-Party)
This website itself sets a limited number of first-party cookies to support basic functionality:
• Theme preference: If our site detects or remembers your light/dark mode preference, a small value may be stored locally to persist that choice across visits.
• Form sessions: When you fill out a contact or order form, a temporary session identifier may be set to prevent duplicate submissions and maintain form state while you navigate.
• Rating state: After you submit a star rating on a product page, an anonymous browser identifier is stored via Cloudflare Workers & D1 to prevent duplicate votes. This identifier is not linked to any personal identity.
These first-party cookies are either strictly necessary or functional, and do not collect personal data beyond what is needed for the above purposes.
4Third-Party Cookies
In addition to the cookies we set, several third-party services integrated into this website may set their own cookies. We do not control these cookies — they are governed by the respective third party's privacy and cookie policies, linked below.
We use Google Analytics (operated by Google LLC) to collect anonymized information about how visitors use this website — pages viewed, session duration, geographic region, and referral sources. Google Analytics uses its own set of cookies (e.g. _ga, _gid) to distinguish users and sessions. This data is processed by Google on our behalf and is not used to personally identify you. IP addresses are anonymized before storage.
You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking at any time by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Some pages on this site embed YouTube video players and a YouTube Subscribe widget, operated by Google. When you load or interact with these embeds, YouTube may set cookies such as YSC, VISITOR_INFO1_LIVE, and PREF, regardless of whether you are logged into a Google account. These may be used to track video views and personalize content across Google's network. We use YouTube's privacy-enhanced embed mode (youtube-nocookie.com) where possible to limit tracking prior to playback.
This website is hosted on Google's Blogger platform. Blogger may set cookies for platform functionality, session management, and security. These are governed entirely by Google's policies and are considered strictly necessary for the site to operate.
Our site uses Cloudflare's global network for security, performance, and content delivery. Cloudflare may set a cookie named __cf_bm to distinguish between humans and automated bots, protecting the site against DDoS attacks and malicious traffic. This cookie is strictly necessary and does not track you for advertising purposes. Cloudflare also processes IP addresses and request metadata for security and routing purposes.
Contact and custom order forms on this site are powered by Web3Forms. Form submissions are transmitted through Web3Forms' servers and forwarded to our email. Web3Forms may set technical cookies to handle form state and prevent abuse. Your submission data is not permanently stored by Web3Forms.
Some pages feature free-download buttons that link directly to files hosted on Google Drive. Clicking these may cause Google to set cookies associated with your Google session (if signed in) or log the request for security purposes, in accordance with Google's own privacy practices. No personal data is transmitted to us as a result of a download.
5Google AdSense & Advertising Cookies
This website participates in Google AdSense, Google's advertising program. Google AdSense uses cookies and similar technologies — including the DoubleClick cookie — to serve advertisements on our pages and across the web.
These advertising cookies enable Google and its partners to:
• Show you ads that are relevant to your interests based on your browsing history across sites that use Google's advertising services (interest-based or personalized advertising)
• Limit the number of times you see the same advertisement (frequency capping)
• Measure the effectiveness of ad campaigns (conversion tracking)
• Report aggregate ad performance statistics to advertisers
W1sdom Prod. does not control which specific ads Google serves, nor does it have access to the data Google collects for advertising purposes. Google acts as an independent data controller for the data processed through its advertising technologies.
Manage or opt out of advertising cookies:
You can also manage personalized advertising directly from within the EU/EEA by visiting www.youronlinechoices.eu.

7Managing & Disabling Cookies
You have several options for controlling cookies on this website and across the web:
Browser settings: All major browsers allow you to view, delete, and block cookies through their settings menus. Below are direct links to cookie management guides for the most common browsers:
Impact of disabling cookies: Please be aware that disabling all cookies may affect the functionality of this website. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled without preventing core site features from working. Disabling analytics or advertising cookies will not break the site's primary functionality but may result in less relevant ads being shown.
Opt out of interest-based advertising: You can opt out of personalized advertising without disabling cookies entirely through the tools listed in Section 5. This does not stop ads from appearing — it stops them from being personalized based on your browsing history.

We encourage you to review this page periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies. Continued use of the website after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
