This page explains the cookies and similar technologies used on PAYATE Rates, why they are used and how you can control them. It supplements our privacy policy.
What are cookies and local storage?
Cookies are small text files that websites store in your browser. Local storage is a similar browser feature that lets a website save small amounts of data on your device. Both can be set by the website you visit (first-party) or by services it uses (third-party).
What we use
| Type | Set by | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Blogger (Google) | Operating and securing the website, and remembering your cookie-notice choice. |
| Analytics | Google Analytics | Counting visits and understanding which pages and tools are useful, in aggregate. |
| Advertising | Google AdSense and its partners | Showing ads, limiting how often you see the same ad, measuring ad performance and, where allowed, personalizing ads. |
| Local storage (price cache) | PAYATE Rates | Saving the latest loaded prices on your device for a few minutes so pages load faster. It contains prices only, never personal data. |
Consent in the EU, UK and Switzerland
If you visit from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, you may see a consent message. Where you do not consent to personalized advertising, Google serves non-personalized ads, which still use cookies for purposes such as frequency capping, fraud prevention and aggregated reporting.
How to control cookies
- Browser settings: you can block or delete cookies and site data in your browser. The site will keep working, although some features may reload data more often.
- Personalized ads: manage them in Google Ad Settings, or opt out of participating vendors at aboutads.info (US) and youronlinechoices.eu (EU).
- Google Analytics: install the Google Analytics opt-out add-on.
More information about how Google uses cookies is available in Google's cookie policy.
