Cookie Settings

Last updated: January 12, 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

We do not use advertising or remarketing cookies at this time.

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.

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).
