🍪 Cookie Policy

Last updated: June 2026

Welcome to Betalyx.xyz — a blog dedicated to honest, actionable startup advice. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which ones we use, and how you can control them. By continuing to browse Betalyx.xyz, you consent to our use of cookies as described below.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are tiny text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, smartphone) when you visit a website. They help the site remember your actions and preferences (like language or login state) over a period of time. Cookies can be “first-party” (set by us) or “third-party” (set by trusted partners like Google).

2. Types of Cookies We Use

We use the following categories on Betalyx.xyz:

Essential (Strictly Necessary) Cookies

• Purpose: These cookies are required for the basic functioning of the site — for example, to keep your session secure or to remember cookie consent preferences.
• Examples: Session tokens, CSRF protection tokens.
• Consequence if disabled: Some parts of the blog may not work correctly.

Analytics Cookies

• Purpose: We use these to understand how readers interact with our startup advice content (e.g., which articles are most popular, how long you stay, what links you click). This helps us improve the blog.
• Providers: We use a privacy-focused analytics service (self-hosted or third-party) that anonymizes IP addresses. No personal data is sold.

Advertising Cookies AdSense

• Purpose: We partner with Google AdSense (and other third-party ad networks) to display relevant ads on Betalyx.xyz. Advertising cookies allow Google and its partners to:
• ✔ Show ads that are more relevant to you based on your browsing history.
  ✔ Measure the performance of ad campaigns (e.g., how many times an ad was viewed or clicked).
  ✔ Limit the number of times you see the same ad.
• How it works: When you visit our site, a cookie may be placed by Google (e.g., __gads, __gpi, IDE). These cookies collect data about your visits across websites to build a profile of your interests.
• No sensitive targeting: We do not use cookies that target sensitive categories (health, race, religion, etc.).

3. Third-Party Ad Partners

We use Google AdSense as our primary ad partner. Google uses cookies (like the DoubleClick cookie) to serve interest-based ads. These cookies may track your visits to Betalyx.xyz and other websites to deliver ads that are tailored to you. Google’s use of advertising cookies is governed by their own privacy policy and cookie policy. You can learn more about how Google uses data at policies.google.com/technologies/ads.

4. How You Can Control Cookies

You have full control over cookies. Here’s how:

Browser Settings

• Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Go to your browser’s Settings → Privacy & Security.
• You can choose to block third-party cookies (recommended if you want to limit ad tracking).
• Note: Disabling essential cookies may affect site functionality (e.g., you might see the cookie banner repeatedly).

Opt-Out of Personalized Ads (AdSense)

• Visit adssettings.google.com and toggle off “Ad Personalization.”
• You can also use the YourAdChoices tool at optout.aboutads.info to opt out of interest-based advertising from multiple networks.
• Even if you opt out of personalization, you will still see ads — they just won’t be based on your interests.

Cookie Consent Banner

When you first visit Betalyx.xyz, a cookie consent banner appears. You can accept or reject non-essential cookies (analytics and advertising) at any time by clicking the “Cookie Settings” link in the footer.

5. Your Privacy

For more details about how we collect, use, and protect your personal data, please read our Privacy Policy. That document explains your rights under applicable laws (e.g., GDPR, ePrivacy).

6. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page will reflect the most recent revision. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
