What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small pieces of data, stored in text files, that are placed on your computer or other devices when websites are loaded in a browser. They are widely used to "remember" you and your preferences, either for a single visit (through a "session cookie") or for multiple repeat visits (using a "persistent cookie"). They ensure a consistent and efficient experience for visitors, and perform essential functions such as allowing users to register and remain logged in.
How We Use Cookies
At startfree.org, we utilize cookies to improve your browsing experience and to understand how you interact with our content related to Credit Card, Financing, Financial Analysis, and Digital Assets. These cookies help us to personalize content, remember your preferences, and provide a more secure and efficient service.
Types of Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
- These cookies are crucial for you to browse startfree.org and use its features, such as accessing secure areas of the website like your account dashboard if you have one. Without these cookies, services like login sessions, shopping carts, and e-billing cannot be provided. They are typically set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms.
Functionality Cookies
- Functionality cookies allow startfree.org to remember choices you make (such as your user name, language, or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features. For instance, we may use these cookies to remember settings you have applied, such as text size, fonts, and other customizable parts of web pages. They can also be used to provide services you have asked for such as watching a video or commenting on a blog. The information these cookies collect may be anonymized and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
Performance and Analytics Cookies
- These cookies collect information about how visitors use startfree.org, for instance, which pages visitors go to most often, and if they get error messages from web pages. These cookies don't collect information that identifies a visitor. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. It is only used to improve how startfree.org works. We use these for analytics to understand, for example, how many people visit specific sections about Financial Analysis or Digital Assets.
Marketing and Targeting Cookies
- Marketing cookies are used to track visitors across websites. The intention is to display ads that are relevant and engaging for the individual user and thereby more valuable for publishers and third-party advertisers. These cookies might be used by our advertising partners to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant ads on other sites. They do not store directly personal information but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device.
How to Disable Cookies
