Cookie policy

Cookies are small pieces of data stored by your browser. We use a first-party cookie to remember your cookie choice. In the European Economic Area, the UK and Switzerland, Google Analytics and Google Ads cookies are set only if you accept. Elsewhere they are set by default, and you can turn them off at any time by clicking Reject.

_ga Distinguishes visitors for Google Analytics. In the EEA, UK and Switzerland, set only after you accept cookies. ~2 years Google Analytics
_ga_* Maintains session state for Google Analytics. In the EEA, UK and Switzerland, set only after you accept cookies. ~2 years Google Analytics
_gcl_* Measures ad conversions and campaign performance via Google Ads. In the EEA, UK and Switzerland, set only after you accept cookies. ~90 days Google Ads

_fbc Stores Meta click attribution information when you arrive from a Meta ad. Set only after you accept cookies. ~90 days Meta Pixel

Meta Pixel does not load until you click Accept on the cookie banner. The Google tag loads on every page in consent mode: where consent is not given (the default in the EEA, UK and Switzerland, and for anyone who clicks Reject) it sets no cookies and sends only cookieless measurement signals that contain no identifiers. We determine the default from the country Google infers from your IP address; your choice on the banner always overrides it.

If you pay for a campaign, you'll be redirected to Stripe's hosted checkout to complete payment. Stripe sets its own cookies on stripe.com for fraud prevention — see Stripe's own cookie policy for details.

The sales assistant chat loads in an iframe from our first-party host chat.getonmusicblogs.com only after you open it. It is a functional tool, not analytics, and is not gated on the cookie banner. We store a sessionStorage flag (gomb-chat-opened) for the tab so the chat does not auto-open twice.

To change your choice, clear the tribe_cc cookie in your browser and reload — the banner will reappear. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time. See our privacy policy for how we use analytics and contact data.
