01What cookies are and what we use them for

Cookies are small text files a website places in your browser. Similar technologies include local storage objects, which serve the same purpose with a different mechanism; this policy covers both under "cookies". Cookies let a site remember things between page loads: that a form submission came from the same session, that you already answered a consent question, how many people read a page.

On skyboosts.com, cookies and equivalent storage keep the site working and tell us which pages are useful. The site carries no advertising, so there are no advertising cookies of any kind here: no identifiers are synced with any advertising system from this site, and nothing that happens on this site is used to profile you for advertising anywhere else.

02First-party only

Cookies set by the site owner are called first-party cookies; cookies set by other companies through the site are third-party cookies. All cookies on skyboosts.com are first-party: they are set by skyboosts.com and readable only by it. We set no third-party cookies, no advertising cookies and no social-media sharing cookies. Where content from another host could otherwise load, it is linked rather than embedded, or loaded in a way that sets nothing. If that ever changes, this policy and the table below change first, before the cookie ships.

03Categories and what each means

  • Strictly necessary. Required for the site to function at all: security tokens and session integrity for form submissions. These cannot be switched off from within the site, because the site cannot operate without them; browsers can still block them, at the cost described in section 06.
  • Preference. Remembers choices you make on the site, principally your cookie consent answer itself, so the question is not asked on every visit.
  • Analytics. Aggregate page metrics that tell us which pages are read and for how long, so writing effort goes where it is used. Analytics on this site is aggregate: it counts visits and pages, not people, and is not joined to anything that identifies you.

The table reflects the current site build. If a cookie is added, renamed or retired, this table is updated in the same release; a cookie that is not in this table should be reported through the contact page and is treated as a defect.

05Consent management

Preference and analytics cookies are set only after you consent, through the consent control presented on your first visit. Strictly necessary cookies are set without a consent prompt because the site cannot function without them, which is the standard treatment for this category. Your consent answer is stored in the preference cookie, and you can change or withdraw it at any time from the same control, linked from the site footer. Withdrawal takes effect immediately: non-necessary cookies are cleared on your next page load, and no further non-necessary cookies are set until you consent again.

06What happens if you refuse or block

Refusing consent or deleting cookies does not hide any content: every page, guide and tool works without the non-necessary categories. Two things degrade: the consent question is asked again on your next visit (preference), and the pages you read are not counted in the aggregate analytics. Blocking strictly necessary cookies in your browser additionally breaks form submissions, because the form integrity check depends on the session cookie; everything you can read stays available.

07Browser and device controls

Every browser lets you inspect, block or delete cookies, in general or per site, under its privacy or site settings (in Chrome and Edge under site settings, in Firefox under enhanced tracking protection, in Safari under manage website data). Browsers also offer private or incognito windows, which discard cookies when the window closes. Device-level advertising controls do not apply to this site, because nothing here participates in advertising. Global privacy signals supported by your browser are honored for analytics where applicable.

08Changes to this policy

This policy changes when the site's cookies change. Updates are published on this page with a new last-updated date, and material changes, such as a new category or a new purpose, are announced on the page before the change takes effect.
