Last Updated: January 2024

This Cookies Policy explains what cookies are, how Fresh Ponder uses cookies on our website fresh-ponder.com, and your choices regarding cookies.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and give website owners information about how their site is being used.

Cookies can be "persistent" or "session" cookies. Persistent cookies remain on your device after you close your browser, while session cookies are deleted when you close your browser.

How We Use Cookies

We use cookies for the following purposes:

Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the website to function properly. They enable core functionality such as security, network management, and accessibility. You cannot opt out of these cookies as the website would not function correctly without them.

Your Cookie Choices

You have several options for managing cookies:

Browser Settings

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can usually find these settings in the "Options" or "Preferences" menu of your browser. The following links provide information on how to modify cookie settings in common browsers:

  • Safari: Preferences > Privacy

Some analytics providers offer opt-out mechanisms. For example, you can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

If you choose to disable cookies, some features of our website may not function properly. This could include:

  • Forms may not remember your entered information
  • You may see the cookie consent banner on every visit
  • Some page features may not display correctly

Local Storage

In addition to cookies, we use local storage (specifically localStorage) to store certain preferences. Local storage functions similarly to cookies but can store larger amounts of data. The same principles regarding consent and your rights apply to data stored in local storage.
