Cookie Policy
Plain language summary
We use cookies and similar technologies to keep the Website working, remember your preferences, understand how visitors use our site, and show and measure ads where enabled. This includes Google Analytics for measurement and Google AdSense for advertising. We do not sell your personal data. If you are located in a region where consent is required by law — such as the EEA, UK, Switzerland, Brazil, South Korea, or Japan — we will ask for your consent before using non-essential cookies. Visitors from other regions are subject to this policy but may not see a consent banner. This policy explains what we collect, why, and how you can control it.
01 - Overview
What this policy covers
This Cookies Policy explains what cookies and similar technologies are, which cookies iZONE Labs places on your device, and why. Please read it alongside our Privacy Policy for a complete picture of how we handle your data.
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer or mobile device by a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, remember your preferences, measure usage, and in some cases support advertising. Cookies do not typically contain information that directly identifies you.
We do not store sensitive personal information — such as passwords or payment details — in any cookie we use.

Interpretation and definitions

03 — Cookie types
How we use cookies
Cookies may be Persistent — remaining on your device until they expire or you delete them — or Session cookies, which are erased when you close your browser.
We use strictly necessary cookies, functional cookies, analytics cookies, and, where enabled, advertising cookies. Where required by applicable law, we will ask for your consent before placing cookies that are not strictly necessary. For users in the EEA, the UK, and Switzerland, additional consent requirements apply to analytics and advertising cookies under the ePrivacy Directive and GDPR.
These cookies are essential to provide core services on the Website and cannot be switched off. They enable basic functions such as page navigation and access to secure areas. The Website cannot function properly without these cookies.
These cookies allow us to remember choices you make — such as your preferred theme (light or dark mode) — so you do not have to re-select them on each visit. If you take a free mini-course, we also use client-side cookies to remember your progress within the course. Additionally, we use persistent functional cookies to record your page interactions (such as article likes and daily action limits to prevent spam and abuse). This data is stored entirely in your browser and is not transmitted to our servers or any third party.
These cookies are used by Google Analytics to measure traffic, session activity, and site performance. They help us understand how visitors use the Website so we can improve content, usability, and performance. In regions where consent is required, these cookies are only set after you have given explicit consent.
These cookies may be used by Google AdSense and its partners to show and measure ads, support frequency capping, report ad performance, and help prevent fraud or abuse. Depending on your location and consent choices, ads may be personalized or non-personalized. In regions where consent is required, these cookies are only activated after you have explicitly opted in.
04 — Your choices
Managing cookies and consent
You may disable or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings. Please note that disabling functional cookies may affect your experience — for example, your theme preference will not be saved, and course progress will not be remembered between sessions.
We determine whether to show a consent banner based on your approximate location, detected using Cloudflare's IP geolocation service. If you are located in a region covered by applicable privacy law — such as the EU/EEA, UK, Switzerland, Brazil, South Korea, or Japan — you will be prompted to review and accept or decline non-essential cookies before they are used. Visitors from other regions are not shown a consent banner but remain covered by this policy and may still manage cookies via their browser.
If you previously made a consent choice and wish to review or change it, you can reset your cookie preferences at any time using the button below. This will clear your saved choice and, if you are in a consent-required region, show the consent banner again on your next page load.

05 — Google services
Google Analytics and Google AdSense
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the Website and to improve content, performance, and user experience. We use Google AdSense to display and measure advertisements.
Google and its partners may use cookies, IP addresses, device identifiers, web beacons, and similar technologies to provide, measure, and improve ads and analytics. Google may also receive information about your interaction with the Website and ads shown on it.
For users in the EEA, the UK, and Switzerland, we obtain the necessary consent before enabling analytics or advertising cookies, in accordance with GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive. Google Analytics and Google AdSense are only initialized after consent is granted in these regions. For users outside these regions where no consent requirement applies under local law, analytics and ads may be active by default.
You can manage ad personalization and opt out of interest-based advertising through Google's Ad Center or by visiting optout.aboutads.info.
06 — Updates
Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, regulation, or our services. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed.
Continued use of the Website after any changes constitutes your acknowledgement of the updated policy.
