Cookie Policy

What this site stores, what affiliate destinations may track and how to manage your choice.

Effective date: 20 October 2026

01Cookies and browser storage

Cookies are small data files stored by a website in your browser. Similar technologies include localStorage and tracking pixels. This site's cookie banner saves the text accepted or declined under stackwise-cookie-consent in localStorage so your choice persists across pages and future visits.

That preference remains until you change it or remove browser site data. We do not record a consent timestamp or policy version in the current implementation. Browser settings, private browsing or unavailable storage may affect persistence.

02Current analytics and optional cookies

Google Analytics 4 is used for aggregated traffic statistics only after consent. Accepting the banner loads Google's analytics script and enables page-visit measurement; a stored accepted choice enables it on later visits. Before Accept, or if you Decline, the Google Analytics script is not loaded.

Google Analytics cookies, including _ga and _ga_11VZNXTMH3, distinguish browser visits and measure which pages are viewed. Reports are aggregated, but cookie identifiers and browser or device information are pseudonymous rather than guaranteed anonymous. Our tag disables Google signals and advertising personalisation. Hosting services may use technical mechanisms necessary to deliver and secure the site.

03Third-party affiliate tracking

When you follow an affiliate link, networks such as Impact and the destination seller or AppSumo partner may use cookies, referral parameters or similar technology to attribute a qualifying purchase. Cookie names, duration and data use depend on the specific network and program; we do not invent a single duration for all of them.

The current site does not set Impact affiliate tracking cookies or load an Impact pixel. Tracking on an external website is governed by that site's policies and consent controls. A choice on Stackwise does not automatically change your consent on those websites.

04Manage your choice

Select Accept or Decline in the banner to store a preference. Use Cookie settings in the footer to reopen it. Choosing Decline withdraws consent, stops analytics, removes accessible Google Analytics cookies on this site and reloads the page. You may also clear the stored choice and cookies for stackwiseconsulting.online in your browser and reload to withdraw consent; analytics stays off until you accept again. Withdrawal does not delete data already collected by Google.

For affiliate cookies set elsewhere, use the destination's controls and your browser's cookie settings. This site's banner cannot delete another website's cookies. We do not claim automated handling of Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track signals in the current implementation.
