Cookies are small text files placed on your browser or device when you visit a website. Similar technologies include pixels, tags, scripts, SDKs, local storage and identifiers that help a website remember information, measure activity or communicate with service providers.

Cookies may be set by us as first-party cookies or by third-party providers such as Google as third-party cookies or technologies. The exact cookies used may depend on your device, browser, country, consent choice and the website features you use.

We use necessary cookies to operate the website, remember your cookie choices, provide security and make pages load correctly.

With your consent, we use analytics cookies to understand how visitors use the website, which pages and documents are useful, how visitors arrive at the website, what devices and browsers are used, and how we can improve the website and our content.

With your consent, we may use advertising, audience and campaign measurement cookies and related technologies to measure marketing campaigns, create aggregated audience insights, understand demographics and interests, build remarketing audiences and support advertising personalization where this is permitted by law and by your consent settings.

We use Google Analytics 4 on ControlYourSound.com. Google Analytics may collect information such as page views, session information, approximate location, browser and device information, traffic source, interactions with forms and buttons, scrolls, outbound clicks, file downloads and other website events that we configure.

Where enabled and where you have consented, we may use Google Analytics Advertising Features, Google Signals, demographics and interests reporting, audience features, campaign attribution, conversion measurement and remarketing-related features. These features help us understand whether our technical content and promotional campaigns are effective and may help us show or measure relevant advertising on Google or partner services.

Google may process information received from our website together with information from other Google services, depending on your Google settings, consent status and applicable law. We do not use Google Analytics to intentionally collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, message text, billing details or other information that directly identifies a person.

Necessary cookies are always active because the website cannot operate properly without them.

Analytics, advertising, audience and campaign measurement cookies are optional. We will not activate these non-essential cookies unless you consent through our cookie banner or preference center.

You may accept all cookies, reject all non-essential cookies, or customize your choices by category. You may change or withdraw your consent at any time by opening Cookie Settings on the website footer or cookie banner link.

If you reject or withdraw consent, we will stop using non-essential cookies for future visits from that browser, subject to technical deletion by your browser and the cookie management platform. You may also delete cookies directly in your browser settings.

We use or may use Google Consent Mode to communicate your consent choices to Google tags. Consent Mode helps Google tags adjust their behavior based on whether you allowed analytics storage, ad storage, user-data use and ad personalization.

Where required by law, our default setting is denied for analytics_storage, ad_storage, ad_user_data and ad_personalization until you give consent. Where Consent Mode sends limited consent-status or cookieless signals, this is used only as permitted by law and your consent settings.

Our website and service providers may process cookie and analytics information in Israel, the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, the United States and other countries where our providers operate. These countries may have data protection laws that differ from those in your country.

Where required, we rely on appropriate contractual, technical and organizational safeguards with service providers, including Google’s data processing terms and applicable transfer mechanisms.

Cookie lifetimes vary by cookie type and provider. Some cookies expire when you close your browser; others remain for a defined period unless you delete them earlier.

Our standard configuration is to retain Google Analytics user and event data for no longer than 14 months unless a shorter period is required or selected. Google Signals data may be subject to Google’s own maximum retention rules and settings. We may retain aggregated reports, security records and consent logs for longer where required for compliance, audit, security or business records.

You can control cookies through our Cookie Settings tool and through your browser. Most browsers let you delete existing cookies, block cookies, limit third-party cookies or notify you before cookies are stored. Browser controls are separate from our website consent tool and may affect other websites as well.

You can also use Google’s available controls, including Google Ads personalization settings and the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. These tools are provided by Google and may change from time to time.

We do not sell personal information for money. However, if advertising, audience, remarketing or cross-context campaign measurement features are enabled, some US state privacy laws may define the use of these technologies as "sharing", "targeted advertising" or "sale" of personal information. You may opt out through Cookie Settings, the "Your Privacy Choices" link or supported browser-based opt-out signals such as Global Privacy Control where required by law.

When we receive a valid opt-out signal from your browser and we are legally required to honor it, we will treat it as a request to opt out of sale, sharing and targeted advertising for that browser.

We may update this Cookie Policy if our website, Google Analytics configuration, advertising features, service providers or legal requirements change. The updated version will be posted on this page with a new "Last updated" date.

If we make material changes to non-essential cookie use, we will request renewed consent where required.
