What are cookies?

Cookies are small files stored by a browser. Similar technologies can store or read information on a device. They may support essential website functions, remember settings, protect a service or measure activity.

What this version of WhateverTings uses

The static HTML, CSS and JavaScript files supplied for this version do not intentionally create analytics or advertising cookies, and no visitor analytics or advertising script is included. The site does not provide visitor accounts, comments, a newsletter sign-up, a shopping cart or an on-site payment facility.

The hosting provider and any content-delivery or security service used for the live domain may use essential technical cookies or similar measures to deliver pages, maintain security or help distinguish normal visitors from automated abuse. The exact cookies, names and lifetimes depend on the provider and the active configuration. This page does not claim to be a live cookie scan or a complete list of provider-side cookies.

External images and links

Some images are requested from external image services such as Unsplash or Wikimedia Commons. Those services receive a connection request when your browser loads their images and may use their own technologies. External websites opened from a link are responsible for their own cookies and privacy practices.

Affiliate links

Where affiliate links are added to an article, the retailer or affiliate network may use tracking technologies to attribute a qualifying visit or purchase after you choose to follow the link. Any such relationship will be labelled beside the recommendation. The third party’s own notices explain its cookies and choices.

Managing cookies

You can usually view, restrict or delete cookies through your browser’s privacy or site-settings controls. Blocking all cookies may affect essential security checks or other functions provided by the hosting or security service. Browser controls do not necessarily stop every form of device storage or network logging.

Changes to this notice

If analytics, advertising, embedded services, a consent tool or other features are added, this page will be reviewed and updated. Where the law requires consent for non-essential cookies or similar technologies, they should not be activated before valid consent is obtained.

For more information about information processed when you visit the site, read the Privacy Notice or contact support@whatevertings.com.

This notice describes the supplied static website files. The actual cookies used by the live hosting and security services should be checked in the deployed environment.
