Cookie Policy for Borealium
Last updated: July 2026
Welcome to Borealium (borealium.top), your English-language blog about lifestyle — from mindful living and travel to design and everyday simplicity. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which ones we use, and how you can control them. By continuing to browse Borealium, you agree to our use of cookies as described below.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They help the site remember your actions and preferences (such as language, font size, and other display choices) over a period of time, so you don’t have to re-enter them every time you return or navigate from one page to another. Cookies also provide us with anonymous information about how visitors use our blog, which helps us improve your experience.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
We use three categories of cookies on Borealium:
a) Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the blog to function properly. They enable basic features like page navigation, secure access, and load balancing. Without these cookies, some parts of the site would not work. Examples include session cookies that keep you logged in (if you have a user account) and cookies that remember your cookie consent choice.
b) Analytics Cookies
We use analytics cookies (such as those provided by Google Analytics) to understand how readers interact with Borealium. These cookies collect information in an aggregated form — for example, which pages are most popular, how long visitors stay, and whether they come from social media or search engines. This data helps us create better content and improve the blog’s performance. No personally identifiable information is collected through analytics cookies alone.
c) Advertising Cookies
Borealium partners with Google AdSense and other third-party ad networks to display relevant advertisements. Advertising cookies are used to:
- Build a profile of your interests based on your browsing history (across different websites).
- Show you ads that are more relevant to you (personalized advertising).
- Measure the effectiveness of ad campaigns (e.g., how many users clicked an ad and then took an action).
- Limit the number of times you see the same ad.
These cookies are placed by Google AdSense and may also be set by other third-party ad vendors. The data collected is anonymous from our perspective — we do not know your name, email, or exact location. However, Google and its partners may combine this data with other information they have collected from your use of their services.
3. How Google AdSense Uses Cookies
Google AdSense uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to Borealium and other websites. When you visit a page that shows AdSense ads, Google’s ad server may place one or more cookies on your browser. These cookies help:
- Recognize your browser across sessions and sites.
- Deliver ads that match your interests (personalized ads).
- Report aggregate ad impressions, clicks, and conversions to advertisers.
You can learn more about how Google uses data from cookies at Google’s Privacy & Terms site.
4. Your Control Over Cookies
You have the right to choose whether to accept or reject cookies. Here’s how you can manage them:
a) Browser Settings
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can:
- Block all cookies (including essential ones — this may break some site features).
- Delete existing cookies from your device.
- Set your browser to notify you when a cookie is being placed.
Instructions for popular browsers:
- Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data.
- Mozilla Firefox: Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data.
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Cookies and website data.
- Microsoft Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions.
b) Ad Personalization Opt-Out
If you prefer not to receive personalized ads from Google AdSense and other ad partners, you can opt out directly:
- Visit Google’s Ad Settings page and toggle off “Ad Personalization.”
- Use the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) opt-out tool to manage preferences across multiple ad networks.
- On mobile devices, you can enable “Limit Ad Tracking” (iOS) or “Opt out of Ads Personalization” (Android) in your device settings.
Even if you opt out of personalized ads, you will still see ads on Borealium — they will simply be less relevant to you (contextual ads based on page content).
5. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on Borealium are placed by third-party services we trust, such as:
- Google Analytics (analytics cookies)
- Google AdSense (advertising cookies)
- Social media platforms (if you share content via buttons — these may set cookies from Twitter, Pinterest, etc.)
We do not control these third-party cookies. Please review the privacy and cookie policies of those providers for more information.
6. Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legislation, or our blogging practices. When we make changes, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to check this page periodically to stay informed.
7. Privacy Policy
For more details about how we handle your personal data — including data collected via cookies — please read our Privacy Policy. It explains your rights, how we store information, and how you can request data deletion.
