Small text files a website stores on your device so it can remember things between visits. It includes your preferences, whether you’ve seen a popup already, or what ads might interest you.
Essential cookies: Keep the site working properly. These can’t be turned off without breaking basic functionality.
Preference cookies: Remember small things, like whether you’ve dismissed a banner, so we’re not repeating ourselves every time you visit.
Advertising cookies: Used through Google AdSense to show ads relevant to you, based on your browsing activity.
Google and its advertising partners place cookies through AdSense. These help determine which ads you see across PenguGuides and other sites. Google’s own policies govern how that data is handled on their end.
You’re in control here:
Turning off cookies entirely may affect how parts of the site work, so consider it a trade-off rather than a free lunch.
As our advertising and site features evolve, this policy will be updated to match. Check the date above for the latest version.
