This Cookie Policy explains how “Soundmoneyguide.com” ([https://soundmoneyguide.com], the “Site”) uses cookies and similar technologies. It should be read together with our [Privacy Policy].
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site function, remember your preferences, measure usage, and — with your consent where required — deliver relevant advertising. We also use similar technologies such as web beacons, pixels, and local storage; we refer to all of these collectively as “cookies.”
Types of cookies we use
1. Strictly necessary cookies. Required for the Site to work (for example, security, load balancing, and remembering your cookie choices). These cannot be switched off in our systems.
2. Preference cookies. Remember choices you make (such as language or display settings) to improve your experience.
3. Analytics/performance cookies. Help us understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve it. We use services such as Google Analytics. These collect aggregated information like pages visited and time on site.
4. Advertising cookies. Used to deliver advertising and to measure its effectiveness, including through Google AdSense and its partners. These cookies may be used to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant ads on this and other sites.
Google AdSense and third-party cookies
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this Site and other sites.
- Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to the Site and/or other sites on the Internet.
- You may opt out of personalized advertising at Google Ads Settings ([https://www.google.com/settings/ads]).
- For more choices about third-party cookies, visit https://www.aboutads.info/choices or https://www.youronlinechoices.eu.
Consent (GDPR / ePrivacy)
We operate from Spain (EU). In accordance with the GDPR and the ePrivacy rules (and the guidance of the Spanish Data Protection Agency, AEPD):
- We set only strictly necessary cookies by default.
- Non-essential cookies (analytics and, especially, advertising cookies such as Google AdSense) are not activated until you give your prior, explicit consent through our cookie-consent banner.
- The banner lets you accept all, reject all, or choose by category, and rejecting is as easy as accepting.
- You can withdraw or change your consent at any time via the “Cookie settings” link on the Site, with no detriment.
- We keep a record of consent as required by law.
Implementation note (for the site owner): you must install a Consent Management Platform / cookie-consent plugin that blocks non-essential scripts until consent is given and supports Google Consent Mode v2 (required for AdSense/Analytics on EU traffic). Suitable options include Complianz, CookieYes, or Cookiebot. A banner that only informs is not compliant in the EU.
Managing cookies in your browser
You can also control cookies through your browser settings — most browsers let you block or delete cookies. Note that blocking some cookies may affect how the Site works. See the support pages for [Chrome], [Firefox], [Safari], and [Edge].
Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (DNT) signal. Because there is no common industry standard for DNT, the Site does not currently respond to DNT signals.
Changes to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date above shows the latest version.
