Cookie Policy

At OSRS Money Making Guide, we use cookies to make your time on our site smooth and enjoyable, whether you’re browsing our money-making guides or shopping in our WooCommerce store. 🎮 This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and how you can manage them. By using our site, you agree to our use of cookies as described below. Let’s dive in!

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are tiny text files that get saved on your device (like your computer or phone) when you visit a website. They help sites remember things about you, like your login details or what’s in your shopping cart. Think of them as little helpers that make your browsing experience faster and more personalized. 🍪

2. How We Use Cookies

We use cookies to make our site work better for you. Here’s what they do:

  • Essential Cookies: These are must-haves to keep our site running smoothly. They help you log in, stay logged in, and use features like our WooCommerce store. Without these, things like adding items to your cart or checking out wouldn’t work.
  • Performance Cookies: These track how you use our site, like which pages you visit or how long you stay. We use tools like Google Analytics to collect this info (anonymously!) so we can improve our guides and make the site easier to use.
  • Personalization Cookies: These remember your preferences, like your account settings or items you’ve looked at in our store, to make your visits more tailored and convenient. 🌟
  • Marketing Cookies: If you opt in, we might use these to show you relevant ads or send you emails about promotions (you can always say no to these!). 📧

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We use a few different kinds of cookies:

  • Session Cookies: These are temporary and disappear when you close your browser. They help with things like keeping you logged in during a single visit.
  • Persistent Cookies: These stick around on your device for a set time (like a few months) to remember you when you come back. They’re great for saving your preferences.
  • Third-Party Cookies: Some cookies come from our trusted partners, like Google Analytics for site stats or payment processors like Stripe for secure checkouts. These help us run the site but don’t share your personal info. 🤝

4. Why We Use Cookies

Cookies help us make your time on our site awesome by:

  • Making sure the site works properly, like letting you log in or buy stuff in our store.
  • Learning how people use our site so we can make our guides and features better.
  • Remembering your settings to save you time, like keeping items in your cart.
  • Showing you ads or offers that match your interests (only if you’re cool with it).

5. Controlling Cookies

You’re in charge of cookies! 🙌 Here’s how you can manage them:

  • Browser Settings: Most browsers let you block or delete cookies. Check your browser’s settings to turn them off or clear them out. Just know that blocking essential cookies might make parts of our site, like the store or login, not work properly. ⚙️
  • Opt-Out Options: Don’t want marketing cookies or emails? You can opt out of promotional stuff through our site or unsubscribe from emails with the link in any message we send.
  • Cookie Consent Pop-Up: When you first visit our site, you might see a pop-up asking about cookies. You can choose which ones to allow or decline non-essential ones.

6. Third-Party Cookies

We work with trusted partners like Google Analytics, Stripe, and PayPal to make our site run smoothly. These partners might set their own cookies to help with things like analyzing site traffic or processing payments. We make sure they follow strict privacy rules, but you can check their policies for more details.

7. How Long Cookies Last

Some cookies (session cookies) disappear when you close your browser, while others (persistent cookies) stick around for a set time, like a few months, to remember you when you return. If you delete cookies or ask us to remove your data, we’ll clear them out unless we’re required to keep them for legal reasons.

8. Updates to This Policy

We might update this Cookie Policy if our site or laws change. We’ll let you know about big updates by posting a notice on our site or sending an email. Keep an eye out!
