What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help sites remember information about your visit, like your preferences or login status.
Cookies We Use
Essential cookies: Required for basic Site functionality (like remembering if you’re logged in, if you have an account, or maintaining your session while browsing).
Analytics cookies: We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the Site, which pages are popular, and how to improve content. This data is aggregated and doesn’t personally identify you.
Advertising cookies: Once our Google AdSense application is approved, Google and its partners may use cookies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other websites. You can control ad personalization through Google’s Ads Settings.
Third-party embed cookies: Some articles include interactive chess boards or puzzles from Lichess.org. These embeds may set their own cookies, governed by Lichess’s own privacy practices, not ours.
Form cookies: Our Contact Us form uses WPForms, which may set cookies to support spam protection and form functionality while you’re submitting a message.
Managing Cookies
Most browsers let you control or delete cookies through their settings. Note that blocking essential cookies may affect how the Site functions. You can also opt out of Google Analytics tracking using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy as our use of cookies changes, particularly once advertising goes live. Check back periodically for updates.
