This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar technologies (like browser local storage) we use on byismile.com, why we use them, and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. We also use local storage, a similar browser technology, to remember choices you've made on this Site.
Cookies & Technologies We Use
Essential
We store one item in your browser's local storage to remember your cookie consent choice, so we don't ask again every visit. This is strictly necessary for the cookie banner to function and can't be switched off.
Analytics (optional — requires your consent)
If you accept analytics cookies, Google Analytics 4 (GA4) sets cookies (typically named _ga and _ga_*) to help us understand how visitors use the Site — which pages are popular, how people navigate, and general traffic trends. This data is aggregated and does not identify you personally. Analytics cookies are off by default and only load after you click "Accept All" or enable Analytics in Cookie Preferences.
We Do Not Use
- Advertising or retargeting cookies.
- Cross-site tracking or ad-network pixels.
- Cookies that sell or share your data with third parties for behavioral advertising.
How to Control Cookies
- Use the Cookie Preferences link in our footer at any time to change your analytics consent.
- Use your browser's settings to block or delete cookies generally (this may affect functionality on other sites, though this Site will work fine with cookies disabled since we don't use any for core functionality).
- If you have Global Privacy Control (GPC) or a similar opt-out signal enabled in your browser, we honor it as a request to keep analytics off.
Third-Party Cookies
Google Analytics is our only third-party cookie source, and it only runs after you consent. Google's use of this data is governed by Google's Privacy Policy.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy as our tools or practices change. Check the "Last updated" date above for the most recent version.
