Introduction
This Cookie Policy explains how DigiHow ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies to recognise you when you visit our website at https://digihow.com (the "Website").
It details what these technologies are, why we use them (including for analytics via Google Analytics and advertising via Google AdSense), and your rights to control their use.
In some cases, cookies may collect information that can identify you or become personally identifiable when combined with other data. In such instances, our Privacy Policy also applies.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small data files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to enable websites to function properly, improve efficiency, and provide reporting information.
Cookies set by DigiHow are called first-party cookies. Those set by third parties (e.g., Google) are known as third-party cookies, which may be used for analytics, advertising, or interactive features. These third parties can recognise your device across different websites.
Why do we use cookies?
We use both first-party and third-party cookies for several purposes. Some are essential for our Website to function (strictly necessary cookies). Others help us analyse usage patterns or serve personalised advertising.
The types of cookies and their functions are described in detail below.
Types of cookies we use
Our Website uses the following categories of cookies:
- Strictly Necessary Cookies: Required for core functionality such as navigation and access to secure areas. These cannot be disabled without affecting the site’s performance.
- Performance and Analytics Cookies: Help us understand how users interact with our site and improve performance.
- We use Google Analytics, which uses cookies like `_ga` and `_gid` to collect anonymised data on user behaviour. Learn more via Google's Privacy Policy or opt-out tool.
- Targeting and Advertising Cookies: Personalise ads and measure their effectiveness.
- Google AdSense cookies (e.g., `IDE`, `__gads`, `ANID`) deliver ads based on prior site visits. These help display more relevant ads and avoid repetition.
- These cookies build an interest profile based on your activity across websites.
- Functionality Cookies: (Optional) Enhance your experience, e.g., by remembering preferences. If disabled, some features may not work properly.
You can manage your preferences for non-essential cookies via our Cookie Consent banner or manager.
How can I control cookies?
You can accept or reject non-essential cookies at any time.
