Cookie Policy

Effective date: June 10, 2026

This document explains how socialboostguide.com uses cookies and related tracking technologies. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which covers personal data more broadly.

Our Approach

SocialBoostGuide is a free educational site about social media growth. We use a small number of technologies to keep the site running, understand what readers find useful, and fund the site through advertising. Non-essential tools load only after you make a choice in our cookie banner.

Technologies Covered by This Policy

When we say “cookies,” we also mean similar tools, including:

  • HTTP cookies — small text files stored by your browser and sent back on future visits.
  • Local storage — data saved in your browser to remember settings, such as your cookie consent choice.
  • Pixels and tags — invisible snippets that report when a page is viewed or an ad is displayed.

Categories We Use

1. Strictly necessary

These are required for core functionality. They remember whether you accepted or rejected optional cookies and cannot be switched off through our preference panel. Blocking them in your browser may prevent the consent banner from working correctly.

2. Analytics (optional)

If enabled on socialboostguide.com, analytics tools such as Google Analytics help us see aggregate trends — for example, which guides on Facebook or TikTok growth get the most traffic. They do not give us access to your social media accounts. Analytics cookies are off until you opt in.

3. Advertising (optional)

SocialBoostGuide may display ads through Google AdSense. Advertising cookies and identifiers help show commercial messages, cap how often you see the same ad, measure campaign performance, and detect invalid activity. These load only with your consent.

What Happens on Your First Visit

When you land on socialboostguide.com, a banner asks you to accept all cookies, reject non-essential ones, or open detailed preferences. Your selection is stored locally so we do not ask on every page. You can change your mind at any time by clearing site data in your browser or revisiting after clearing stored consent.

Third-Party Providers

Some cookies are placed by services we integrate, not by SocialBoostGuide directly. The main partners are:

Google and its advertising partners may combine activity on socialboostguide.com with information from other sites that use Google services. That processing is governed by Google's own policies.

How to Control Cookies

On this website

Use the buttons in our cookie banner: Accept all, Reject non-essential, or Manage preferences to toggle analytics and advertising separately where available.

In your browser

Every major browser lets you block, delete, or limit cookies. Exact steps vary by version; look for “Privacy,” “Cookies,” or “Site data” in settings. Useful starting points:

Industry opt-out tools

To limit interest-based ads from participating companies, visit Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out (US) or Your Online Choices (EU). For Google-specific controls, use Google Ads Settings.

If You Block Cookies

Rejecting or blocking optional cookies will not stop you from reading our articles. You may see less relevant ads, and we will have less insight into which content performs well. Strictly necessary cookies are still required for the consent mechanism itself to function.

Do Not Track

Some browsers send a “Do Not Track” signal. There is no universal standard for how websites must respond. SocialBoostGuide does not currently alter cookie behavior based on DNT signals, but you can always manage cookies through the banner and browser controls described above.

Updates

We may revise this Cookie Policy when we add new tools, change ad partners, or update legal requirements. The effective date at the top will change when we do. Check this page periodically for the latest version.
