Cookie Policy

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site function, remember your preferences, and provide insights into how the site is used. Cookies do not harm your device and do not contain viruses.

Why we use cookies

ObsidianSites.net uses cookies for two reasons: to make the website work properly, and, only with your consent, to understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it.

Types of cookies we use

Essential cookies

These cookies are necessary for the website to work. They enable basic functions like page navigation, form submissions, and security. The website cannot function properly without them. Essential cookies are always active and cannot be turned off.

Examples: session cookies, security tokens.

Analytics cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website - which pages are visited most, how long people stay, and where they come from. All data is anonymous and used only to improve the site. Analytics cookies are off until you choose to enable them.

Tool used: Google Analytics. Google Analytics collects anonymous usage data. No analytics data is collected unless you have enabled analytics cookies through our consent banner or preferences panel.

Marketing cookies

These cookies would track visits from ads or social media so we could measure how well our campaigns are working. No data is shared with third parties for their own advertising purposes. Marketing cookies are off until you choose to enable them.

How to accept or reject optional cookies

On your first visit you will see a cookie consent banner. You can choose to:

• Accept All Cookies - enables both analytics and marketing cookies.
• Manage Preferences - lets you switch analytics and marketing cookies on or off individually.
• Reject Non-Essential - keeps only essential cookies active and leaves analytics and marketing off.

Changing your preferences later

You can change your mind at any time. Use the Manage Cookies link in our website footer to reopen the Cookie Preferences panel and update your choices. If you later disable analytics or marketing cookies, those optional tracking technologies will stop being used going forward.

Essential cookies

Please note that essential cookies may be necessary for the website to function. These cannot be disabled as they are required for basic site operations such as page navigation and form security.
