Welcome to Protonium (protonium.top), an English-language blog dedicated to construction, engineering, and building innovation. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and how you can control your cookie preferences. It also covers the use of third-party advertising cookies, including those from Google AdSense.
By continuing to browse protonium.top, you consent to the use of cookies as described in this policy. If you do not agree, please adjust your browser settings or refrain from using the site. For more information about how we handle your personal data, please read our Privacy Policy.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They help the website remember your actions and preferences over a period of time, so you don’t have to re-enter them every time you return. Cookies also provide website owners with useful analytics and enable certain functionality.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
We use the following categories of cookies on protonium.top:
- Essential (Strictly Necessary) Cookies: These cookies are required for the basic operation of our website. They enable core features such as security, network management, and accessibility. Without these cookies, the site cannot function properly. Examples include session cookies that keep you logged in (if applicable) and cookies that remember your cookie consent choice.
- Analytics Cookies: We use analytics cookies (e.g., Google Analytics) to understand how visitors interact with our blog. These cookies collect anonymous information such as the number of visitors, pages visited, and traffic sources. This data helps us improve the content and user experience of Protonium. No personally identifiable information is collected through these cookies.
- Advertising Cookies: We partner with third-party advertising networks, including Google AdSense, to display relevant ads on our blog. Advertising cookies are used to build a profile of your interests based on your browsing history across different websites. This allows Google and its partners to show you personalised ads that are more relevant to you. These cookies also help measure the effectiveness of ad campaigns and prevent the same ad from appearing too often.
3. How Google AdSense Uses Cookies
Protonium.top uses Google AdSense, a service provided by Google LLC (“Google”). AdSense uses cookies and web beacons to serve ads based on your prior visits to our site and other websites. Specifically:
- Personalisation: Google uses cookies like _gads and IDE to tailor ads to your interests. For example, if you have recently read construction articles, you may see ads for building materials or project management software.
- Measurement: Conversion tracking cookies help advertisers understand how effective their ads are, and they help us measure the performance of ads on our site.
- Frequency capping: Cookies ensure you don’t see the same ad too many times.
Google’s use of advertising cookies is governed by Google’s own privacy policies. You can learn more about how Google uses data when you use our site by visiting How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.
4. Third-Party Ad Partners
In addition to Google AdSense, we may work with other third-party advertising partners who may also place cookies on your device. These partners include ad networks, exchanges, and measurement services. Each partner has its own cookie policy and privacy practices. We encourage you to review their policies for more information.
5. How You Can Control Cookies
