What cookies are
A cookie is a small text file that a website asks your browser to store, so the site, or a service it uses, can recognize your browser later. “First-party” cookies are set by the site you are visiting; “third-party” cookies are set by another company, such as an ad network. Websites can also use similar technologies, such as your browser’s local storage, which keeps small pieces of data on your device.
What CodesRush uses today
At the effective date of this policy, CodesRush sets no cookies for visitors and loads no third-party scripts that set cookies. This is the complete list of what the site stores:
cr_theme(local storage, first party). Saved only if you switch between the light and dark theme, so your choice is remembered next time. It contains the word “light” or “dark,” stays on your device, is never sent to us, and is not used for tracking. It remains until you clear your browser’s site data. Because it is strictly needed to remember a setting you chose, it does not require consent.- WordPress login cookies, such as
wordpress_logged_in_andwordpress_sec_. Set only for site administrators when they sign in to manage content. Visitors never receive them.
Our page cache and content delivery network deliver pages without setting cookies. Our pages may link to other websites, such as a game’s Roblox page; those sites set their own cookies under their own policies once you visit them.
Advertising cookies
We intend to show ads served by Google AdSense. When that happens, Google and other ad vendors working through AdSense will use cookies and similar identifiers on our pages to:
- show ads, and personalize them based on your visits to this and other websites where you have allowed it;
- limit how many times you see the same ad;
- detect and prevent fraud and invalid clicks;
- measure how ads perform.
Google’s advertising cookies include names such as __gads, __gpi, and __eoi on our domain, and IDE or DSID on Google’s own domains. Google changes these from time to time; the current list and their purposes are in Google’s guide to how Google uses cookies. How to opt out of personalized ads is explained in the Advertising section of our Privacy Policy.
Consent
If you visit from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, no advertising cookies will be set until you agree to them in a consent message provided by a Google-certified consent management platform. You can accept, reject, or choose by purpose, and you can change your mind at any time through the privacy settings link that will appear on every page. If you reject advertising cookies, you may still see non-personalized or limited ads. Visitors in US states with privacy laws will be able to opt out of personalized advertising, and Global Privacy Control signals will be honored.
How to control cookies
Every major browser lets you see, block, and delete cookies and local storage, either for all sites or for codesrush.com only. Instructions for the most common browsers:
Blocking cookies will not stop CodesRush from working. If you clear local storage, the site will simply return to its default theme.
Changes to this policy
We will update this policy, and its effective date, before any new cookie or tracking technology is added to the site, including when advertising goes live. Questions about cookies can be sent to contact@codesrush.com.
