This Cookie Policy explains how PermacultureTube ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize and remember you when you visit our website and use our services. It explains what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control our use of them.
Please read this Cookie Policy carefully to understand our policies and practices regarding cookies. This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and provide information to the owners of the site.
Cookies allow a website to recognize your device and remember if you've been to the website before. They help websites understand how you use their services so they can improve your experience, remember your preferences, and show you relevant content.
How Cookies Work
When you visit our website, we may send one or more cookies to your device. These cookies may be set by us (first-party cookies) or by third parties providing services to us (third-party cookies). They may be session cookies (which expire when you close your browser) or persistent cookies (which stay on your device until they expire or you delete them).
1.1 Similar Technologies
In addition to cookies, we may use other similar technologies, such as:
- Web beacons (or pixel tags): Small transparent image files used to monitor your journey around a single website or collection of websites.
- Local storage: Similar to cookies but with a greater capacity and can store more complex data. They are stored on your device indefinitely but can be cleared through browser settings.
- Session storage: Similar to local storage but data is only stored for the duration of your browsing session.
For simplicity, we refer to all of these technologies as "cookies" throughout this policy.

3. Types of Cookies We Use
We use different types of cookies for different purposes. Here's a breakdown of the categories of cookies we use:
3.1 Cookie Duration
In terms of duration, we use two types of cookies:
- Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that are deleted when you close your browser. They help us track your movements from page to page so you don't have to provide the same information repeatedly.
- Persistent Cookies: These remain on your device for a specified period (which can range from a few days to several years) or until you delete them manually. They help us recognize you as a returning visitor and remember your preferences.
