3. How to manage cookies
Browser controls
Most browsers let you view, delete, or block cookies from specific sites or entirely. Here's how:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Firefox: Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Edge: Settings → Privacy, search, and services → Cookies
Note: blocking strictly necessary cookies may break site functionality (contact forms, form submissions).
Opt out of ad tracking
- Google Ads: google.com/settings/ads
- Meta: Facebook Settings → Ads → Ad Preferences

- Industry-wide: youronlinechoices.com or optout.networkadvertising.org
Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. We respect DNT signals where technically feasible. However, there is no industry-wide standard for DNT, so not all tracking may be disabled.
