Cookie Settings

Last updated: April 27, 2026

We keep this simple. Bytes of Us uses:

  • Essential cookies (needed for the site to work)
  • Analytics cookies (Google Analytics 4) to understand what content is helpful
  • Advertising cookies and similar technologies (Monetag) to show and measure ads

Manage your cookie choices

Essential cookies (always on)

These help the website function (security, basic performance). You can block them in your browser, but parts of the site may not work correctly.

Analytics cookies (optional)

If you allow analytics cookies, we use Google Analytics 4 to measure things like:

  • which pages are read most,
  • how long people stay,
  • what content is useful,

so we can improve Bytes of Us.

You can change your choice anytime:

  • via the cookie banner (click "Cookie Settings" if it appears again), or
  • by clearing cookies in your browser and revisiting the site.

Google Analytics 4 does not log or store IP addresses.

Advertising cookies and similar technologies

We use Monetag to display ads. Monetag and its advertising partners may use cookies, local storage, service workers, push-notification permissions, or similar technologies to deliver ads, measure performance, prevent fraud, and manage ad frequency.

You can block or clear cookies in your browser settings and manage website notification permissions from your browser's site settings.

Cookies we use (typical)

Google Analytics typically sets first-party cookies such as:

  • _ga (helps distinguish users; often stored up to 2 years)
  • _ga_<property> (stores session or event-related data)

Cookie names can vary depending on configuration.

Opting out (browser-level)

You can also:

  • block cookies in your browser settings, or
  • use Google's Analytics opt-out browser add-on (if available for your browser).
