COOKIE POLICY
Last updated: May 13, 2026
DigitalCoinJournal uses cookies to keep the website functional, protect it from abuse, measure readership and, where enabled, support advertising or affiliate activity.
A cookie is a small file placed on a browser or device. Similar technologies, such as pixels, tags, local storage and SDKs, can perform related functions.
1. Types of cookies used
Essential cookies
These are required for the site to work properly. They can support:
- page loading;
- security checks;
- fraud and spam prevention;
- cookie preference storage;
- login sessions for administrators;
- basic WordPress or CMS functions.
Essential cookies do not require consent where they are strictly necessary.
Preference cookies
These remember choices such as language, region, display preferences or cookie settings. If DigitalCoinJournal uses these beyond what is necessary, they should be controlled through the cookie banner.
Analytics cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand readership patterns, such as which articles are read, how visitors find the site and which sections need improvement.
Where required by law, analytics cookies are only placed after consent.
Advertising and affiliate cookies
DigitalCoinJournal may carry advertising, sponsored links or affiliate links. Some partners use cookies to measure clicks, conversions, impressions or campaign performance.
Advertising or affiliate cookies that are not strictly necessary should be disabled until the reader accepts them through the consent tool.
Embedded content cookies
Articles may include embedded content from third-party platforms. These platforms can set their own cookies when the reader interacts with the embed or loads the page, depending on the implementation.
2. Consent choices
Readers should be able to:
- accept non-essential cookies;
- reject non-essential cookies;
- change preferences later;
- withdraw consent as easily as it was given.
The cookie banner or preference centre should show the live cookie categories and vendors active on the site.
3. Managing cookies in the browser
Most browsers allow users to block, delete or limit cookies. Blocking all cookies can affect site performance or disable certain features.
Browser controls are separate from the DigitalCoinJournal cookie preference centre.
4. Third-party vendors
The exact vendors used by DigitalCoinJournal can change as tools are added, removed or replaced. The active vendor list should be displayed in the cookie preference centre where legally required.
Common categories of vendors may include:
- hosting and security providers;
- analytics platforms;
- advertising networks;
- affiliate networks;
- newsletter tools;
- embedded media providers.
5. No forced access
Rejecting non-essential cookies should not prevent access to ordinary editorial content. Some features connected to third-party embeds, video players, comments or personalised tools may not work without the relevant cookies.
6. Updates
This Cookie Policy should be reviewed whenever DigitalCoinJournal adds a new analytics, advertising, affiliate, video, comment or tracking technology.
