1 What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device — computer, tablet, or smartphone — when you visit a website. They are widely used across editorial and informational websites to make sites work efficiently and to provide anonymous, aggregate reporting to site editors and publishers.
Cookies do not contain personally identifiable information such as your name or payment details. They typically store a unique identifier or a small piece of data that allows our platform to recognise your browser on subsequent visits.
Editorial note: As a purely informational platform, our use of cookies is limited to improving your reading experience and understanding how our content is consumed — never for commercial transactions or payment processing.
2 Types of Cookies We Use

These cookies collect anonymous information about how visitors interact with our articles — which stories are most read, how long readers stay on a page, and which topics generate the most interest. This data helps our editorial team improve content quality.
Functionality Cookies
These cookies remember preferences you set while browsing — such as text size, language settings, or whether you have dismissed a notice. They enhance your reading experience without tracking you across other websites.
Third-Party Content Cookies
Embedded content within our articles — such as videos, infographics, or social media references — may place their own cookies. These are governed by the respective third parties' privacy policies and are outside our direct control.
