This Cookie Policy explains how whipjacket.com (the “Site”) uses cookies. The Site is run by Whipjacket Productions (“Whipjacket Productions,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).
For more on how we handle personal information, see our Privacy Policy.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files. A website saves them in your browser when you visit.
They help a site remember things. For example, they can keep you logged in or show how visitors use pages.
Similar tools work the same way. These include local storage, pixels, and scripts. In this policy, “cookies” covers all of them.
- First-party cookies are set by our Site.
- Third-party cookies are set by other companies, such as YouTube.
Some cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Others stay until they expire or you delete them.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies make the Site work. The Site cannot run properly without them. They do not need your consent.
Our Site runs on WordPress with the Elementor page builder. Common examples:
- WordPress cookies. These handle logins for site administrators. Comments are turned off on our blog posts, so we do not set comment cookies.
- Security cookies. These help protect the Site and our forms from spam, bots, and attacks. Tools used: SiteGround Security Optimizer, which may show a short “robot check” page.
- Cookie consent. We use a cookie banner (Complianz) to ask for your consent before setting Google Analytics cookies. It stores your choice in cookies such as cmplz_banner-status and cmplz_statistics for up to 1 year. You can change your choice anytime with the Manage Consent link on the site.
- Hosting / performance cookies. Our host, SiteGround, and its Speed Optimizer may set cookies to keep the Site fast and working.
Analytics Cookies
These cookies help us understand how people use the Site. They show which pages are popular and how visitors find us. We use this to improve our lessons and pages.
We use Google Analytics 4, set up through Google Site Kit. It counts visits and shows how people use the Site.
Cookies it sets:
- _ga lasts up to 2 years. It tells visitors apart.
- _ga_<ID> lasts up to 2 years. It keeps track of your visit. Our ID is G-1FSFRD5WYC.
Google processes this data. See how Google uses data from sites that use its services and Google’s Privacy Policy.
We do not count visits from site administrators who are logged in.
To opt out, use the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. You can also block or delete these cookies in your browser settings.
Embedded Content Cookies (YouTube and Others)
Some pages include embedded videos from YouTube. When you view or play an embedded video, YouTube (owned by Google) may set its own cookies. It may also collect data about your viewing.
We do not control these cookies. Google’s Privacy Policy explains how it uses them.
Our videos are linked to YouTube rather than embedded. YouTube may set cookies when you open a video on its site.
Other embedded content or tools: our contact form (Contact Form 7) and our email signup form (Mailchimp). Mailchimp may set cookies if you sign up.
Marketing / Advertising Cookies
We do not use advertising or retargeting cookies, such as the Meta Pixel or Google Ads.
