This Cookie Policy explains how Zero Hour Patriots uses cookies and similar technologies on zerohourpatriots.com. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal information more generally.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser when you visit. They allow the site to remember your actions and preferences over time and help site owners and their partners understand how the site is used. Similar technologies include web beacons (also called pixels), local storage, and device identifiers. In this policy, we call all of these “cookies.”
Cookies set by Zero Hour Patriots are called first-party cookies. Cookies set by other companies, such as advertising and analytics providers, are called third-party cookies. Some cookies are deleted when you close your browser (session cookies), while others remain until they expire or you delete them (persistent cookies).
How We Use Cookies
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are required for the Site to work and to keep it secure. They include cookies that our website software uses to protect forms from spam, balance server load, and remember login sessions for site administrators. They cannot be switched off in our systems, although you can block them in your browser, which may cause parts of the Site to stop working.
Preference cookies
These remember choices you make, such as your name and email address if you leave a comment (WordPress comment_author cookies), or the privacy choices you make in a consent message, so you do not have to enter them again.
Analytics cookies
These help us understand how many people visit the Site, which articles they read, and how they arrived, so we can improve our coverage. If we use Google Analytics, it sets cookies such as _ga and _ga_*. You can opt out of Google Analytics with the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Advertising cookies
The Site is supported by advertising. Advertising partners, including Google through Google AdSense, may set cookies to deliver ads, limit how often you see the same ad, measure ad performance, prevent fraud, and, where permitted, show ads based on your interests and your visits to this and other websites. Examples of Google advertising cookies include __gads, __gpi, __eoi, IDE, DSID, and test_cookie; Google describes them on its How Google uses cookies page.
Embedded content and social media
Some articles include embedded posts or videos from services such as X (formerly Twitter), YouTube, and Rumble. These services may set their own cookies when you view embedded content, especially if you are logged in to them. We do not control these cookies; please review those services’ policies.
Your Choices
- Consent message: where required by law, such as for visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, we will ask for your consent before setting non-essential cookies, using a consent message from Google or another certified consent management platform. You can change your choices at any time through that message.
- Personalized ads: you can turn off personalized advertising from Google at Google Ads Settings, and opt out of many other participating companies at www.aboutads.info/choices, optout.networkadvertising.org, or www.youronlinechoices.eu.
- Browser settings: most browsers let you view, block, and delete cookies. Instructions are available for Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Microsoft Edge. Blocking all cookies may affect how the Site works.
- Mobile devices: you can limit ad tracking or reset your advertising identifier in your device’s privacy settings.
Opting out of personalized advertising does not mean you will stop seeing ads; it means the ads you see will be less tailored to your interests.
Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when we add or change services on the Site. The “Last updated” date at the top shows when it was last revised.
