Cookie Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to Heightopedia.com. Like nearly all modern websites, we use small data files called cookies to help us analyze traffic, personalize your experience, and make our site function efficiently.

By continuing to use Heightopedia, you are consenting to our use of cookies as described in this policy.

2. What Exactly is a Cookie?

A cookie is a tiny text file that a website sends to your web browser (like Chrome, Firefox, or Safari). This file is then stored on your computer, phone, or tablet. Cookies are harmless; they don’t contain viruses or run programs. They are simply memory aids for the website.

Cookies generally come in two flavors:

  • Session Cookies: These are short-lived cookies that vanish immediately after your browser session ends. They help with basic site functions during a single visit.

  • Persistent Cookies: These stay on your device for a set period (until they expire or you manually delete them). They help the site remember you and your preferences when you return.

3. How Heightopedia Uses Cookies

We deploy both session and persistent cookies strictly to enhance your experience and maintain our service:

Cookie Purpose What It Does
Site Functionality Helps the pages load correctly and ensures essential features work as intended.
Performance & Analytics Allows us to track anonymous information about how you use the site (e.g., which articles are most popular). This aids in continuous content improvement. (Typically via Google Analytics).
Personalization Helps us remember settings you’ve chosen or content you’ve previously interacted with.

4. Third-Party Cookies

When you visit Heightopedia, you may also encounter cookies placed by third parties. These are cookies placed by other companies or services we use to run the site:

  • Analytics Providers: Services like Google Analytics use cookies to provide us with accurate usage statistics.

  • Advertising Partners: If we display ads, our advertising partners may use cookies to track your browsing across different websites. This allows them to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to your interests (known as interest-based advertising).

Important Note: We do not have direct control over these third-party cookies. You should review the privacy policies of these providers (like Google, etc.) for detailed information on their cookie practices.

We may use Google AdSense or similar ad networks that use cookies (including DoubleClick cookies) to deliver personalized ads.

5. Managing Your Cookies and Choices

You are in complete control of the cookies stored on your device.

Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your settings to block them or receive a warning before a cookie is stored.

How to Manage Cookies:

  • Blocking: You can adjust your browser settings to block all cookies. Be aware that blocking cookies may affect your browsing experience and limit functionality on Heightopedia and many other sites.
