Cookie Policy
What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser. Rignetic uses them, together with equivalent browser storage such as local storage, to remember your preferences, measure how the site is used, and serve and measure ads.
The Cookie Banner
Every page on Rignetic shows a cookie banner the first time you visit, with three options: Accept, Decline, and Manage. Whichever you choose is saved in your browser's local storage and sent to our /api/cookie-consent endpoint, which records it in a cookie_consent table in our Cloudflare D1 database. This is how we know your preference on future visits and can show evidence that consent was requested and recorded.
Categories We Use
- Essential cookies. These are required for the site to function and are set regardless of your choice — for example, the local storage entry that remembers whether you have already responded to the cookie banner, and the record of your consent choice itself. Essential cookies cannot be disabled through the banner because the site cannot operate correctly without them.
- Analytics cookies. Google Analytics 4, loaded through Google Tag Manager, measures which pages are read and how visitors reach the site. The Google Ads tag measures the performance of our own advertising campaigns.
- Advertising cookies. Rignetic uses Google AdSense to display ads. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies, including the DoubleClick cookie, enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to Rignetic and/or other sites on the Internet.
Opting Out of Personalized Ads
You can opt out of personalized advertising at any time:
- Google Ads Settings — controls the ads Google shows you.
- www.aboutads.info — opt out of personalized ads from participating third-party vendors.
To learn how Google uses data from sites that use its services, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.
Changing Your Choice
You can change your cookie choice at any time by selecting "Manage" in the cookie banner. If the banner is not currently visible, clearing your browser's local storage for rignetic.com will cause the banner to reappear on your next visit.
Browser Controls
Most browsers also let you block or delete cookies directly through their settings. Doing so may affect how well Rignetic and other sites function, since some essential cookies may be blocked along with the rest.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy as our use of cookies changes — for example, once a specific advertising or analytics partner is connected. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
