This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which ones Form 8938 Guide uses, and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used to make websites function, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to the site owner and its partners about how the site is used.
Categories of cookies we use
| Category | Purpose | Can you disable it? |
|---|---|---|
| Essential | Required for core site functionality, such as remembering your cookie consent choice and basic security features. | No — the site can't function correctly without these. |
| Analytics | Helps us understand which pages are read, how visitors navigate the site, and where content could be improved (e.g., Google Analytics). | Yes, via the cookie banner or settings panel. |
| Advertising | Used by advertising partners (e.g., Google Ads / AdSense) to serve and measure ads, and in some cases to personalize which ads you see based on your browsing activity. | Yes, via the cookie banner or settings panel. |
How we obtain consent
On your first visit, a cookie banner asks you to accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or open detailed settings to choose by category. Your choice is stored in your browser and applied on future visits. Analytics and advertising cookies are not set until you provide consent.
Managing your preferences
You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the cookie icon (🍪) fixed to the bottom-left corner of any page on this Site. You can also manage or block cookies directly through your browser settings — check your browser's help documentation for instructions, since the process varies by browser.
Third-party advertising opt-outs
In addition to controls on this Site, you can manage ad personalization directly with providers such as:
Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. There is no industry-standard interpretation of DNT signals, so this Site currently responds to the cookie preferences you set directly through our cookie banner rather than browser DNT signals.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy periodically to reflect changes in the cookies we use or legal requirements. Check the "Last updated" date above for the most recent revision.
