Cookie Policy

Last updated: July 2026

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by websites. RankStash uses a minimal set of cookies, grouped into the categories below. Optional cookies are set only after you accept them in the consent banner.

Change your consent

Open cookie settings — you can change or withdraw your consent at any time. The same panel is available from the "Cookie settings" link in the footer of every page.

Strictly necessary

Required for the site to remember your choices. Always on; cannot be disabled.

• cc_cookie — stores your cookie consent choice. Duration: 6 months. Set by RankStash (first party).

Analytics (optional)

Set only if you accept the analytics category. Provided by Google Analytics 4.

• _ga — distinguishes unique visitors. Duration: up to 2 years.
• _ga_* — keeps session state for Google Analytics 4. Duration: up to 2 years.

Marketing (optional)

Set only if you accept the marketing category. Provided by Google AdSense for ad personalization and measurement — for example __gads, __gpi, and _gcl_* cookies. If you reject this category, ads are still shown but only as non-personalized (contextual) ads that do not set these cookies.

Managing cookies in your browser

You can also delete or block cookies through your browser settings. Blocking strictly-necessary cookies means the consent banner will reappear on each visit. Instructions for common browsers:

• Chrome
• Firefox
• Safari
• Edge
