Cookie Notice

Last updated October 2026. This page explains the cookies and similar storage MateDolly uses.

What we use

Preference storage (essential). Your cookie-banner choice is stored locally in your browser so we don't ask on every visit. No account is created.
Analytics cookies (optional). If enabled and you accept, Google Analytics sets cookies to measure aggregate readership — pages viewed, session length, general region. We use this to decide which guides to write, never to build individual profiles.
Affiliate attribution (third-party). When you click an affiliate link and land on a retailer, that retailer sets its own cookies to attribute the visit and any purchase. These are governed by the retailer's cookie and privacy policies.

What we don't use

We don't run our own advertising trackers, fingerprinting, or cross-site retargeting pixels.

Managing cookies

You can accept or decline in the banner shown on your first visit, clear cookies any time in your browser settings, or block third-party cookies entirely — the site will still work; only analytics and affiliate attribution stop recording.
