This Cookie Notice explains how I use cookies and similar technologies on paulkrogdahl.com, ripoutthecore.com, noitbank.com and its subpages (the “Site”).

It should be read together with my [Privacy Policy] so you understand what personal information I collect, how I use it and what your rights are.

What are cookies

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device. They are widely used to make websites work, to keep them secure and to help site owners understand how their sites are used.

Some cookies are set directly by my Site. Others are set by third party services that I use on the Site, such as analytics tools, email and newsletter services, or embedded content providers.

What types of cookies I use

I use the following types of cookies on the Site.

1. Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are essential for the Site to work properly. For example, they may:

• remember your cookie choices
• support basic security and load balancing
• make sure certain forms and settings function as expected

You cannot turn these cookies off through the cookie banner, because the Site will not work correctly without them. You can still block them in your browser, but parts of the Site may then stop working.

2. Preference cookies

These cookies remember choices you make, such as language or other display preferences, so that you do not need to set them every time you visit.

If you reject these cookies, the Site will still work, but you may have to re-enter some settings every time.

3. Analytics cookies

If you allow them, I use analytics cookies to understand how visitors use the Site, for example:

• which pages are visited most often
• how people find the Site
• what type of device and browser are used

This helps me improve the content and layout of the Site over time.

Analytics cookies are usually set by third party tools (for example web analytics services). These providers process aggregated information for me and are not supposed to use the data to identify you personally.

Analytics cookies are only used if you consent to them.

4. Newsletter, forms and embedded content

The Site uses services such as MailPoet for newsletter subscriptions and may include embedded content or tools from other providers, for example:

• embedded audio or video players
• registration forms for events or webinars
• social or sharing features

These services may set their own cookies when you interact with them. Where possible I will explain this next to the relevant form or embed.

Non essential cookies from these services are only used if you consent to them.

How you give and withdraw consent

When you first visit the Site, you will see a cookie banner that lets you:

• accept all cookies, or
• choose which categories of cookies you want to allow, beyond those that are strictly necessary.

You can change your choices at any time by revisiting the cookie settings link or banner on the Site.

You can also control cookies through your browser settings by blocking or deleting them. How you do this depends on the browser you use. Most browsers offer help pages that explain how to manage cookies.

Please note that if you disable some cookies, parts of the Site may not function properly.

Third party cookies

Some cookies on the Site are set by third parties. This may happen, for example, when I use:

• analytics and measurement services
• email and newsletter platforms
• embedded media or event tools

These third parties may use the information they collect in line with their own privacy and cookie policies. I encourage you to review those policies if you want more detail about how they use cookies.

Changes to this Cookie Notice

I may update this Cookie Notice from time to time, for example if I change the cookies I use or if legal requirements change. Any updates will be posted on this page with a new “Last updated” date.

I encourage you to review this page periodically to stay informed about how I use cookies and related technologies.
