Cookie Policy
What cookies and similar technologies DayZDB.dev and its advertising partners use, and how you can control them.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels, and web beacons. They help websites function, remember choices, measure traffic, and — on sites that show ads — support advertising, including ads personalisation where allowed.
This Cookie Policy explains how DayZDB.dev uses those technologies and should be read with our Privacy Policy.
2. Who sets cookies on DayZDB
- First-party cookies — set by DayZDB.dev for basic operation and, if enabled, preference or consent storage.
- Third-party cookies — set by partners such as Google when ads or other embedded services load. Third parties, including Google, may place and read cookies on your browser, or use web beacons, as a result of ad serving on this site.
3. Categories we use
Essential / strictly necessary
Required for security, load balancing, remembering cookie consent choices, and core site features. These do not require consent in most jurisdictions, but we still describe them here for transparency.
Preferences
May store interface choices (for example, dismissed notices). Used only if such features are enabled.
Analytics (if enabled)
Help us understand aggregate visits and page performance. Where required by law, we request consent before non-essential analytics cookies run.
Advertising (Google AdSense and partners)
Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user’s prior visits to your website or other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to your users based on their visit to your sites and/or other sites on the Internet.
Advertising cookies may be used for frequency capping, fraud prevention, measurement, and — when you consent or where otherwise permitted — ads personalisation. Non-personalised ads may still use cookies to operate.
4. Google advertising cookies
When Google ads are displayed on DayZDB.dev, Google and certified partners may set or read advertising cookies and collect information such as IP address and page URL. Your data may be shared with Google in connection with those services.
Useful Google resources:
- How Google uses cookies in advertising
- How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services
- Google Business Data Responsibility
- Google Ads Settings (opt out of personalized advertising)
You can also opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalized advertising at www.aboutads.info or Network Advertising Initiative.
5. Consent (EEA, UK, Switzerland and similar laws)
DayZDB loads Google Tag Manager (GTM-PRZBZJDM) with
Google Consent Mode v2. Until you choose, advertising and analytics
storage default to denied. Accepting enables Analytics and Ads signals (including
ad_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization, and
analytics_storage). Rejecting keeps those denied. You can also manage
Analytics and Advertising separately, or reopen controls via
Cookie settings in the site footer.
Google Search Console is used to monitor indexing; it does not place cookies through this consent banner. Google Analytics and Google advertising tags run through Tag Manager according to your consent choice.
Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal. Essential / security storage may continue so the site can remember your choice.
6. How to control cookies in your browser
Most browsers let you block or delete cookies. Blocking all cookies may break parts of the site. Browser controls typically live under Settings → Privacy / Cookies. Clearing cookies may also reset your stored consent choice, so you may see the notice again.
7. Do Not Track / Global Privacy Control
Some browsers send opt-out signals. Where we are able to honour recognised signals for sale/share or advertising cookies, we will do so in line with applicable law and our technical setup. Google Ads Settings and aboutads.info remain available regardless.
8. Changes
We may update this Cookie Policy when our technologies or partners change. The “Last updated” date will change when we do.
