This is the Cookie Policy for brewNread, accessible at www.brewnread.com. This policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and how you can control them.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to website owners.

Cookies allow websites to remember your actions and preferences — such as language, display settings, and previously viewed content — so you don't have to re-enter them on every visit.

2. How We Use Cookies

We use cookies for various reasons detailed below. In most cases, there are no industry-standard options for disabling cookies without affecting the functionality they add to the site.

It is recommended that you leave cookies enabled unless you are certain they are not required for a service you use on our site.

Essential vs. Non-Essential

Essential cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off. Non-essential cookies are used for analytics, personalization, and advertising — you may opt out of these at any time.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

Marketing Cookies

These may be set through our site by advertising partners to build a profile of your interests and show relevant advertisements on other sites. They uniquely identify your browser and device but do not directly store personal information.
