Cookies Policy — shonenunleashed.wiki

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember preferences, keep sessions secure, and understand how visitors use pages. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, and pixel tags.

shonenunleashed.wiki uses cookies and similar technologies as described below. By continuing to browse after seeing our cookie notice (where displayed), you consent to non-essential cookies according to your selected preferences.

Types of Cookies We Use

Essential cookies: Required for the Site to function — for example, remembering cookie consent choices, load balancing, or security tokens. These cannot be disabled without breaking core functionality.

Analytics cookies: Help us understand aggregate visitor behavior — pages viewed, session duration, traffic sources. We use this data to prioritize guide updates and fix broken pages. Analytics cookies should only activate after consent where legally required.

Functional cookies: Remember optional preferences such as theme selection or language choice if we offer those features. These improve experience but are not strictly necessary.

Advertising cookies: If we display third-party advertisements, advertising partners may set cookies to deliver relevant ads and measure campaign performance. We will update this policy before enabling advertising cookies.

Essential — Site operation and security
Analytics — Aggregate traffic and usage statistics
Functional — Optional preferences
Advertising — Only if ads are enabled in the future

Third-Party Cookies

Embedded YouTube videos may set cookies when you play or interact with the player, governed by Google's privacy policy. We embed videos using privacy-enhanced modes where available to reduce tracking before playback.

Analytics providers such as Google Analytics set their own cookies to distinguish unique visitors and sessions. Review Google's documentation for their retention periods and opt-out mechanisms.

Our hosting and CDN providers may set technical cookies for performance and security. These are typically essential and short-lived.

Managing Your Cookie Preferences

Browser controls: All major browsers let you block or delete cookies through settings. Blocking all cookies may prevent some Site features from working correctly.

Consent banner: Where required by law, our cookie banner lets you accept or reject non-essential cookie categories. You can change preferences at any time through the link in the Site footer when available.

Analytics opt-out: Install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on or use browser extensions that block analytics scripts if you prefer not to be counted in aggregate statistics.

Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookies Policy when we add new features, analytics tools, or advertising partners. The "last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will be highlighted on the Site when feasible.
