This page lists the cookies and similar technologies used on en.ip1blog.com, what each one is for, and how to control them. It sits alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains the wider picture.
What a cookie is
A cookie is a small text file a website asks your browser to store. On the next request the browser sends it back, which is how a site can remember something between page loads — such as the fact that you already answered the cookie notice. “Similar technologies” means things that do the same job by other means, such as local storage.
Strictly necessary
These are set regardless of consent, because without them the site cannot do what you asked it to.
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
inglatech_consent | This site | Remembers whether you accepted or declined non-essential cookies, so the notice is not shown again on every page. | 180 days |
PHPSESSID (if present) | This site | Server-side session identifier used during a form submission. | Session |
wordpress_*, wp-settings-* | WordPress | Set only for a logged-in administrator. Ordinary readers never receive these. | Session to 1 year |
__cf_bm, cf_clearance | Cloudflare | Distinguishes people from bots and protects the site from abuse. | 30 minutes to 1 year |
Advertising and measurement
These are used only if you accept. Until then, Google’s tags run with advertising and analytics storage denied through Google Consent Mode.
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
__gads, __gpi | Google AdSense | Ad selection, frequency capping and measurement. | Up to 13 months |
IDE, test_cookie | Google (doubleclick.net) | Measures and personalizes advertising across sites. | Up to 13 months |
NID, AEC | Preferences and security for Google services. | Up to 6 months |
Google may set further cookies, and the exact set depends on which of its services serve a given page view. The authoritative, maintained list is Google’s own: Types of cookies used by Google.
Third-party content
The site’s typefaces are loaded from Google Fonts. That request does not set a cookie, but it does reveal your IP address to Google. We use no social media widgets, no embedded trackers and no third-party comment system.
What we do not use
- No cookies that record anything about your benefits, your household or your income. We never ask for that information in the first place.
- No data brokers, no audience selling, no cross-site identity graphs beyond the advertising described above.
- No email tracking pixels. We run no newsletter.
Changing your choice
Your answer to the notice lives in the inglatech_consent cookie for 180 days. To change it, delete this site’s cookies in your browser settings — the notice will appear again on your next visit, and you can answer differently. Declining is as easy as accepting; the notice offers both with equal prominence.
Controlling cookies in your browser
Opting out of personalized advertising
- Google Ads Settings — controls personalization across Google’s services.
- aboutads.info/choices (United States) and NAI opt-out.
- youronlinechoices.com (Europe).
Blocking cookies entirely will not break this site — there is nothing to log into and nothing in a basket. Opting out of personalized advertising does not remove advertising; it means the ads are chosen from the page’s context rather than from a profile of your browsing.
Changes
If the cookies in use change, this page is updated and the date at the top changes with it.
