Cookie Policy
Last updated: September 29, 2026
This policy explains what cookies The Tool Teacher uses and how you can manage them.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember things like your preferences and how you arrived here. Most browsers accept cookies by default, and you can change that in your browser settings.
What Cookies We Use
1. WordPress core cookies
WordPress sets cookies for logged-in users (to keep you signed in) and for commenters (to remember your name and email address so you don’t have to re-enter them). These are only set if you log in or leave a comment; most visitors will not see them.
2. LiteSpeed Cache cookies
Our site uses the LiteSpeed Cache plugin to serve pages faster. It may set performance cookies that store only technical caching data — they are used for speed, contain no tracking information, and are not used for advertising.
3. Cookie-consent cookie
Our cookie-consent banner stores a cookie that remembers whether you accepted or declined optional cookies, so the banner doesn’t ask you again on every visit.
4. Advertising cookies (future)
This site may in the future display ads from Google (AdSense). If so, Google may set advertising cookies to serve ads based on your visits to this site and other websites. You can learn more at https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads and opt out of personalized advertising in Google’s Ads Settings.
5. Analytics cookies (Google Analytics 4)
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use this site. The following cookies are set only after you accept analytics cookies in our cookie banner:
_ga— distinguishes visitors; expires after 2 years._ga_<id>— persists session state for this site’s measurement ID; expires after 2 years.
These cookies send usage data to Google. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking at any time with the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
How to Manage Cookies
You control cookies through your browser. Most browsers let you:
- View and delete cookies already stored on your device
- Block all cookies, or block third-party cookies specifically
- Clear cookies automatically when you close the browser
To manage cookies, open your browser’s settings or help menu and search for “cookies” — the steps differ slightly between Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. You can also revisit or change your consent choice at any time using the cookie settings link in the site footer.
Please note: blocking essential cookies may prevent parts of the site from working as intended.
Changes to This Policy
If we change how cookies are used on this site, the updated policy will be posted here with a revised “last updated” date.
