Cookie Policy
Last updated: August 6, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, why JazzGhost ("we," "us," or "our") uses them on https://jazzghost.com/ (the "Website"), how we obtain and manage your consent, and how you can control or disable them. This page should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) by your web browser when you visit a website. They allow a website to recognize your device, remember your preferences and prior actions, and collect information about how the site is used. Similar technologies (such as pixels, local storage, and tags) may be used for comparable purposes and are covered by this Policy.
2. Why We Use Cookies
We use cookies to:
- Ensure the Website functions correctly and securely
- Remember your preferences and settings
- Understand how visitors use our Website and improve performance
- Deliver and measure advertising, where applicable
- Prevent abuse and protect against automated or malicious traffic
3. Cookie Categories
| Category | Purpose | Can Be Disabled? |
|---|---|---|
| Necessary Cookies | Required for basic website operation, security, and core tool functionality | No — essential to the Website's operation |
| Performance Cookies | Help us understand site speed, errors, and technical performance | Yes |
| Analytics Cookies | Collect anonymized data on visitor behavior (e.g., Google Analytics) | Yes |
| Functional Cookies | Remember choices you make (such as language preference) for a more personalized experience | Yes |
| Advertising Cookies | Used to deliver relevant ads and measure advertising effectiveness (e.g., Google AdSense) | Yes |
3.1 Necessary Cookies
Essential for the Website to function properly, including enabling core tools and maintaining security. These cannot be disabled through our consent tool because the Website cannot function properly without them.
3.2 Performance and Analytics Cookies
Help us understand how visitors interact with the Website by collecting information anonymously or in aggregate, such as pages visited, time spent on the site, and technical errors (e.g., via Google Analytics).
3.3 Functional Cookies
Allow the Website to remember choices you make to provide a more personalized experience.
3.4 Advertising Cookies
Used to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to you and your interests, and to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns (e.g., via Google AdSense and its partners).
4. Third-Party Cookie Providers
We work with the following types of third-party providers, which may set their own cookies on your device:
- Google Analytics — used for website traffic and behavior analytics. See Google's Privacy Policy.
- Google AdSense — used for advertising delivery, personalization, and measurement. See Google's Advertising Policy.
- Cloudflare (or an equivalent infrastructure provider, subject to change) — used for content delivery, performance optimization, and security (e.g., bot and abuse protection).
Each provider maintains its own privacy and cookie practices, which we encourage you to review directly on their respective websites. We do not control third-party cookies directly.
5. Google AdSense Cookies Specifically
If the Website displays ads through Google AdSense, Google and its partners may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. You can learn more and manage your ad preferences at Google's Advertising Policy page and Google Ad Settings.
6. Cookie Duration
Cookies may be either:
- Session cookies — temporary cookies deleted automatically when you close your browser
- Persistent cookies — remain on your device for a set period (commonly ranging from 30 days up to 2 years, depending on the provider and purpose) or until manually deleted
Exact durations vary by cookie and provider and may change periodically as third-party tools update their practices.
7. Consent Management
Where required by applicable law (such as GDPR, UK GDPR, or equivalent frameworks), we display a cookie consent banner when you first visit the Website, allowing you to:
- Accept all cookies
- Reject non-essential cookies
- Customize your preferences by category
- Withdraw or change your consent at any time
You can update your preferences at any time by revisiting our cookie settings tool, typically accessible via a "Cookie Settings" or "Manage Cookies" link in the website footer.
8. Managing Cookies Through Your Browser
In addition to our consent tool, most browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically:
- View what cookies are stored and delete them individually
- Block third-party cookies
- Block cookies from particular or all sites
- Delete all cookies automatically when you close your browser
You may also use third-party opt-out tools, such as Google Ad Settings or the Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out page. Please note that disabling certain cookies, particularly necessary cookies, may affect the functionality of the Website.
9. California and CCPA Notice
California residents may have the right to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information, which may include certain advertising-related cookie data. You may exercise this right through our cookie preference tool or by contacting us at [email protected].
