Cookies
This Cookie Policy explains how Linix.online may use cookies and similar technologies, what they do and how visitors can control them.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files placed on a browser or device when a website is visited. They may store a session identifier, preference, consent decision or other limited information. Similar technologies can include local storage, pixels, tags and device identifiers.
How Linix.online may use cookies
Cookies may be used for the following purposes:
- Delivering essential WordPress functionality
- Remembering comment-form information when requested
- Storing privacy and consent choices
- Protecting the website against abuse and malicious activity
- Measuring aggregate website usage and performance
- Displaying and measuring advertising where enabled
Essential cookies
Essential cookies support functions needed to operate or secure the website. They may be used for administrator sessions, login security, comment preferences, load balancing, fraud prevention and consent records.
Because these cookies are necessary for requested functionality or security, they may not always be disabled through the website’s consent interface. They can still be removed using browser controls, although doing so may affect functionality.
Preference cookies
Preference cookies remember choices such as information entered into the comment form or interface preferences. These cookies are generally optional unless required to provide a function specifically requested by the visitor.
Analytics cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use Linix.online, which pages are useful, how users navigate the site and whether technical problems occur. Linix.online may use Google Analytics through Site Kit by Google.
Where legally required, analytics cookies should not be activated until the visitor has provided the necessary consent.
Advertising cookies
If advertising is enabled, Google AdSense or another disclosed provider may use cookies or similar technologies to deliver, limit, personalise and measure advertisements. The exact behaviour may depend on consent, location and the advertising mode selected.
Advertising cookies are considered non-essential and should be managed through the website’s consent platform where required.
Third-party cookies
Embedded services, analytics, advertising, payment links or other third-party features may set or read cookies under their own policies. Linix.online does not directly control every cookie used by an external provider.
Consent choices
Where a consent banner or privacy message is displayed, visitors can accept, reject or customise non-essential categories. A consent choice may itself be stored so that the website does not ask again on every page.
Consent can generally be changed later through a privacy or cookie-settings link made available on the website.
Managing cookies in your browser
Most browsers allow users to:
- View existing cookies
- Delete cookies
- Block all or selected cookies
- Block third-party cookies
- Clear site data when the browser closes
- Use private-browsing mode
Blocking all cookies may prevent some website functions from operating correctly.
Cookie retention
Some cookies are deleted when the browser closes, while others may remain for a defined period. Retention depends on the cookie’s purpose, the website configuration and the provider that sets it.
Changes to this policy
This policy may be updated when new services are added, advertising is enabled, providers change or legal requirements are revised.
