Cookie Policy

1) What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer/phone/tablet) when you visit a website. They can help a site work properly, improve security, remember preferences, or measure how people use the site.

We may also use similar technologies (like local storage, pixels, or SDKs) that work in a comparable way.

2) How we use cookies on CoveredNightSide

We aim to use as few cookies as possible.

A) Strictly necessary cookies

These are needed for the Site to function securely and reliably (for example, security, load balancing, preventing abuse). If our hosting platform or security services set these, they may be used without consent where permitted by law.

B) Functionality cookies (optional)

If enabled, these can remember choices you make (for example, language settings) or help features work smoothly.

C) Analytics cookies (optional)

If we add analytics tools (for example Google Analytics), those services may set cookies to help us understand traffic and improve the Site. Hostinger notes that cookies may be introduced by connected integrations such as analytics tools.

D) Embedded media cookies (optional)

If we embed third-party content (for example audio players, video, social embeds), those third parties may set cookies when the embed loads or when you interact with it.

E) Newsletter cookies (optional)

We plan to offer a newsletter using Hostinger Reach. The signup form and email tools may involve cookies or similar tech for security, form reliability, and subscription management (exact behaviour can vary by configuration).

F) Comments cookies (optional)

If/when comments are enabled, the comment feature may use cookies to:

• remember what you typed,

• reduce spam/abuse,

• manage moderation,

• and/or remember display preferences.

3) Cookie consent banner

If we enable optional cookies (analytics/embeds/etc.), we will display a cookie banner so visitors can choose. Hostinger Website Builder supports enabling a cookie banner from the site’s general settings.

4) Cookies we use (cookie list)

Because cookie usage depends on which features are enabled, this list may change. Hostinger provides examples showing that integrations like Google Analytics can set cookies (e.g., _ga).

Current status (recommended wording you can keep even as you build)

• Strictly necessary: may be used for security and core operation.

• Analytics: only used if/when enabled.

• Embeds: only used if/when embedded content is present.

• Newsletter (Hostinger Reach): only used if/when the signup feature is active.

• Comments: only used if/when comments are enabled.

When you turn on analytics or embeds: update this section with the cookie names, provider, purpose, and duration (most tools publish a cookie list).

5) How to control cookies

You can control cookies in several ways:

A) Cookie banner choices (when shown)

If the banner is active, you can accept or reject optional cookies and change your preferences later (where available).

B) Browser settings

Most browsers let you:

• view cookies stored on your device,

• delete cookies,

• block cookies entirely,

• block third-party cookies.

If you block strictly necessary cookies, parts of the Site may not work.

6) Third-party cookies

If we use third-party services (analytics, embedded audio/video, social embeds), those providers may set cookies and process data under their own policies. Hostinger also explains that cookie use on Builder sites depends on the integrations you connect.

7) Changes to this Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy as the Site grows (for example when newsletters, comments, analytics, or embeds are enabled). We’ll update the “Last updated” date at the top.
