Cookie Policy
Last updated: August 2026
This Cookie Policy explains, in more detail than our Privacy Policy, what cookies and similar technologies Mind Theory ("we," "us," or "our") uses on mindtheory.in (the "Site"), why we use them, and how you can control them.
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device when you visit. They help the site remember information about your visit, like your preferences, and can help make your next visit easier and the site more useful to you. Similar technologies include local storage and pixels, which we treat the same way in this policy.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
| Type | Purpose | Can you opt out? |
|---|---|---|
| Essential | Needed for core site features to work — e.g. remembering that you closed a banner, or keeping a quiz's progress in sync while you answer questions. | No — the Site may not function correctly without these. |
| Analytics | Help us understand which articles, quizzes, and pages are useful, so we can improve the Site. | Yes — via your browser's cookie settings. |
| Advertising | Used by Google AdSense and similar networks to show ads and, where enabled, to make ads more relevant to your interests. | Yes — see Google's Ads Settings. |
3. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are set by services we embed or rely on, not by Mind Theory directly. These may include:
- Google AdSense / Google Ads — for serving and, where permitted, personalizing advertising.
- YouTube — when a video is embedded on a page, YouTube may set cookies once you interact with the player.
- Web3Forms — used to process our newsletter and contact form submissions; no tracking cookie is set for this purpose.
Each of these providers has its own privacy and cookie practices, governed by their own policies, which we encourage you to review.
4. Managing Cookies
Most browsers let you see what cookies you have and delete them individually or block cookies from particular or all sites. Check your browser's help section for instructions, or visit allaboutcookies.org for browser-specific guidance. Please note that blocking essential cookies may prevent parts of the Site — such as quizzes or forms — from working correctly.
5. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time as our use of cookies changes. Continued use of the Site after changes are posted means you accept the updated policy.
