1. Introduction

Welcome to ads knk. We are committed to being transparent about the technologies we use on our website. This Cookie Policy is designed to help you understand what cookies are, how we use them, the types of cookies we deploy, and the choices you have regarding their use.

This policy applies to all pages and services available through our website at www.ads-knk.click. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides additional information about how we collect, use, and protect your personal data.

We operate in accordance with applicable United States federal and state laws, including the Federal Trade Commission Act (FTC Act), the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), where applicable. If you are a California resident, you have specific rights regarding cookies that collect personal information, which are outlined in this policy.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other internet-connected device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, improve user experience, and provide information to website owners.

When you visit our website, our server sends a cookie to your browser, which stores it on your device. The next time you visit our website, your browser sends the cookie back to our server, allowing us to recognize you and remember your preferences or actions.

Cookies do not typically contain information that personally identifies you directly, but personal information that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies. Cookies cannot access other files on your device or carry viruses.

2.1 How Cookies Work

When you access our website, the following process occurs:

  • Your browser requests a web page from our server.
  • Our server responds with the web page along with one or more cookies.
  • Your browser stores the cookies on your device's hard drive or in memory (for session cookies).
  • Each time you make a subsequent request to our server, your browser sends the stored cookies back to us.
  • Our server reads the cookies and uses the information to personalize your experience or analyze your behavior.

2.2 Types of Cookies by Duration

Cookies can be categorized based on how long they remain on your device:

  • Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that exist only during your browsing session. They are automatically deleted when you close your browser. Session cookies are typically used to maintain your login status or remember items in your shopping cart during a single visit.
  • Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a set period of time, even after you close your browser. They are activated each time you visit the website that created them. Persistent cookies are used to remember your preferences across visits, such as your language settings or login credentials.

2.3 First-Party vs. Third-Party Cookies

  • First-Party Cookies: These are cookies set directly by our website (ads-knk.click) that you are visiting. They are generally used for functionality and to improve your user experience on our site.
  • Third-Party Cookies: These are cookies set by a domain other than our website. They are typically placed by third-party service providers such as analytics companies, advertising networks, or social media platforms. These third parties may use the data collected by their cookies for their own purposes.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We use the following categories of cookies on our website:

3.1 Strictly Necessary (Essential) Cookies

These cookies are essential for our website to function properly. Without these cookies, certain services you have requested cannot be provided. These cookies do not gather information about you that could be used for marketing purposes and do not remember where you have been on the internet.

Because these cookies are strictly necessary for the operation of our website, they are exempt from consent requirements under applicable laws. However, you can still block them through your browser settings, though doing so may affect how the website functions.

3.2 Analytics and Performance Cookies

These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website, including which pages they visit most often and whether they receive error messages. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous — it is used to improve the performance and usability of our website.

We use Google Analytics to understand how our website is being used so that we can make improvements. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information about the number of visitors, the pages they view, the time they spend on the site, and how they arrived at the site.

3.3 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow our website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, personalized features. For example, these cookies can remember your username, language preference, or region, and provide improved features. The information collected by these cookies may be anonymized and cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.

3.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies

These cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. These cookies remember that you have visited a website and this information may be shared with other organizations such as advertisers.

We use Google Ads cookies to track conversions and to deliver targeted advertising. These cookies help us understand which of our advertising efforts are most effective and allow us to optimize our marketing spend.
