This Cookie Policy explains how Chain Ledger News uses cookies and similar technologies on chainledgernews.com. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on a browser or device when a website is accessed. They may recognize a browser, remember preferences, maintain security, measure performance or support advertising and embedded services.
First-party cookies are placed by Chain Ledger News. Third-party cookies are placed by an external provider whose service appears on the website.
2. Similar Technologies
We may also use pixels, tags, scripts, local browser storage, device or browser identifiers, server logs and comparable storage or access technologies. References to cookies include these technologies where appropriate.
3. Categories of Cookies
Strictly Necessary
These technologies support website security, network management, fraud prevention, page delivery, accessibility, storage of privacy choices and operation of the consent system. They cannot ordinarily be disabled through Cookie Preferences because the requested website functions may not work without them.
Preferences
These technologies remember choices such as language, region, display and accessibility settings. They are optional unless strictly required for a feature you request.
Analytics and Performance
These technologies help us understand visited pages, referral sources, loading performance, errors, device categories and interactions. Where required, they are activated only after consent.
Advertising and Marketing
If advertising is enabled, these technologies may display or measure advertising, limit repeated advertisements, attribute referrals, infer interests or track activity across websites and devices. Where applicable, they remain disabled unless you consent.
Embedded Content
External video, social-media, chart or market-data services may use cookies to deliver content, measure interaction, personalize a service or associate activity with an external account. These technologies are controlled by their providers. Where technically available and legally required, nonessential embedded services should remain blocked until consent.
4. Why We Use Cookies
We may use cookies to operate and protect the website; remember privacy choices; provide requested functions; improve speed and reliability; diagnose problems; understand readership in aggregated form; measure content performance; prevent automated abuse; support embedded content; and administer advertising or affiliate measurement.
5. Consent and Your Choices
Where consent is required, nonessential cookies should not be activated before you make a choice. The consent interface should allow you to accept all optional categories, reject all optional categories, choose categories individually and change or withdraw consent later.
Rejecting optional cookies should not prevent access to ordinary editorial content, although external or personalized features may be unavailable.
6. Cookie Duration
Session cookies generally expire when the browser closes. Persistent cookies remain for a defined period or until deleted. Duration depends on purpose and provider. Current names, providers, purposes and expiration periods should be shown in the consent-management panel whenever technically available.
7. Third-Party Providers
Depending on enabled features, technologies may be placed by providers supporting WordPress, hosting, content delivery, security, spam prevention, analytics, advertising, newsletters, embedded media, social content, fonts or affiliate measurement. Providers may change as functions are added or removed and process information under their own policies.
8. Google AdSense and Google Advertising Cookies
Chain Ledger News may participate in Google AdSense. Google and other authorized advertising vendors may place and read cookies on your browser or use web beacons, IP addresses and similar technologies as a result of advertising served on this website.
Google advertising technologies may be used to:
- deliver and render advertisements;
- select advertisements based on context or, with appropriate permission, interests;
- limit how frequently an advertisement is displayed;
- measure impressions, interactions, conversions and advertising performance;
- detect invalid traffic, fraud and abuse;
- estimate general location and device characteristics; and
- produce aggregated reporting for publishers and advertisers.
Google’s advertising cookies may enable Google and its partners to serve advertisements based on visits to Chain Ledger News and other websites. Advertising may be personalized or non-personalized depending on consent, account settings and applicable law.
Learn more through Google’s advertising technologies explanation and Google’s partner sites information. You can manage Google ad personalization through My Ad Center or Google Ads Settings.
9. Information Associated With Advertising Technologies
Advertising technologies may process cookie identifiers, IP address, browser and device information, current and previous page information, general location, consent choices, advertisement impressions, clicks, interaction timestamps and fraud-prevention signals. The precise data depends on the provider, configuration, user choices and applicable law.
10. Consent for the EEA, United Kingdom and Switzerland
Where required for visitors in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom and Switzerland, Chain Ledger News will use a Google-certified consent management platform integrated with the applicable Transparency and Consent Framework. The consent notice will explain the use of cookies and personal data for advertising, including ad personalization, and provide choices before nonessential advertising technologies are activated.
A user should be able to accept, reject or manage relevant purposes and vendors and later withdraw or change consent through Cookie Preferences.
11. United States Privacy Choices
Certain U.S. state laws may treat personalized advertising or disclosure to advertising partners as “sale,” “sharing” or “targeted advertising.” Where applicable, eligible users may opt out through Cookie Preferences, a privacy choices link, a supported Global Privacy Control signal or by contacting us.
12. Cookie Inventory and Provider Changes
The exact cookies active on a visit depend on location, consent, browser settings, available advertising demand and enabled website features. The consent platform should display an updated vendor and cookie inventory whenever technically available. Because third-party providers may update names, duration and purposes, the live consent panel is the most current operational record.
13. Managing Preferences
You can manage optional categories through the Cookie Preferences link on the website. A changed preference applies to future processing and does not automatically delete information lawfully processed before the change.
14. Browser Controls
Most browsers allow you to view, delete or block cookies and block third-party cookies. Blocking all cookies may affect security, consent storage and functionality. Browser controls operate independently from our consent panel.
15. Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track
Some browsers transmit privacy signals such as Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track. Where legally required and technically supported, we seek to recognize applicable opt-out signals. Responses may vary because no single standard applies in every jurisdiction.
16. Consequences of Disabling Cookies
Disabling optional cookies should not prevent access to ordinary news articles. It may reduce personalization, prevent embedded media from loading, limit preference storage or make advertisements less relevant. Blocking strictly necessary cookies through browser controls may interfere with security, consent storage and basic website operation.
17. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when technology, providers, website features or legal requirements change. The latest version will be published here with its updated date.
