In short
- We use a small number of cookies for security and site function.
- Google Analytics cookies help us see which guides are useful.
- Amazon sets its own cookies after you click an affiliate link.
- You can block or delete cookies in your browser at any time.
What cookies are
A cookie is a small text file a website stores in your browser. Cookies let a site remember things, such as whether you are a real visitor and not a bot, or which pages were viewed during a visit. Similar tools, like local storage and tracking pixels, work in much the same way. In this policy, “cookies” covers all of them.
Cookies we use
| Type | Set by | What it does | How long |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Cloudflare (for example, __cf_bm) | Tells real visitors apart from harmful bots and protects the site from attacks | About 30 minutes |
| Site function | WordPress (Fair Way Volt) | Remembers your name and email if you leave a comment, so you do not have to type them again | Up to about 1 year |
| Analytics | Google Analytics (_ga, _ga_ followed by an ID) | Counts visits and shows which pages are read, using pseudonymous IDs | Up to 2 years |
| Affiliate | Amazon, on Amazon’s own website | Credits Fair Way Volt when you buy after clicking one of our links | Usually 24 hours for a purchase to count |
Cookie names and lifetimes are set by each provider and can change. We review this list when we change our tools.
First-party and third-party cookies
First-party cookies are set by fairwayvolt.com. Third-party cookies are set by other companies, such as Google, Cloudflare and Amazon. Third parties use the data under their own privacy policies, which are linked in our Privacy Policy.
How to manage cookies
You are in control. Most browsers let you see, block and delete cookies:
- Chrome: Settings, then Privacy and security, then Third-party cookies
- Safari: Settings or Preferences, then Privacy
- Firefox: Settings, then Privacy and Security
- Edge: Settings, then Cookies and site permissions
You can also stop Google Analytics from collecting your visits with the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
If you block cookies
Fair Way Volt will still work. You can read every guide and ranking. Blocking security cookies may cause extra checks, such as a quick verification page, and blocking Amazon cookies means we may not earn a commission on your purchase. That is completely your choice.
Changes and contact
We may update this Cookie Policy when our tools change. The “Last updated” date at the top shows the latest version. Questions? Email hello@fairwayvolt.com.
