This Cookie Policy explains how TentRidge ("TentRidge", "we", "us", or "our"), operating at tentridge.com, uses cookies, localStorage, and similar technologies when you visit our site. TentRidge is a tents and camping gear review website, and we aim to keep our use of tracking technologies minimal and transparent.
Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device to remember information about your visit. localStorage is a similar browser technology that allows websites to store data directly in your browser without an expiration date, until it is manually cleared. We use a combination of both, depending on the purpose.
When you first visit tentridge.com, you will see a cookie consent banner asking whether you accept or decline non-essential cookies, specifically analytics cookies. Your response (either "Accept" or "Decline") is saved directly in your browser's localStorage. This allows us to remember your choice on future visits so you are not repeatedly asked for consent.
This is strictly necessary storage used solely to remember your cookie consent preference. It does not track your browsing behavior, does not identify you personally, and does not expire automatically. It remains in your browser until you clear your site data or manually reset it.
If you accept cookies via our consent banner, TentRidge may load analytics cookies to help us understand how visitors use our site, such as which reviews and gear comparisons are most popular, how long visitors stay on a page, and which pages lead to exits. This data is aggregated and used only to improve our content and site performance. These cookies are not loaded, and no analytics scripts run, unless you have given consent.
Our analytics functionality is provided by a third-party analytics service. When enabled through your consent, this provider may set cookies on your device to collect anonymized or pseudonymized usage data, such as page views, referral sources, device type, and general location (city or region level). We do not control these third-party cookies directly; they are governed by the respective analytics provider's own privacy and cookie practices. We only enable this data collection after you have accepted cookies through our banner.
You can withdraw your consent to analytics cookies at any time. Since your choice is stored in your browser's localStorage rather than through a centralized account system, the most reliable way to change or withdraw your consent is to clear your browser's local storage and cookies for tentridge.com. This will remove the stored consent value, and the cookie banner will reappear on your next visit, allowing you to make a new choice.
Alternatively, most browsers allow you to view and delete localStorage entries manually through their developer tools if you prefer a more targeted approach rather than clearing all browsing data.
In addition to our consent banner, you can control or block cookies broadly through your browser's settings. Most browsers allow you to block all cookies, block only third-party cookies, or receive a notification each time a cookie is set. Please note that blocking essential localStorage may cause the consent banner to reappear on every visit, since your preference cannot be remembered.
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the technologies we use or for legal and regulatory reasons. Any updates will be posted on this page with a revised "Last updated" date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
If you have any questions about this Cookie Policy or how TentRidge handles cookies and localStorage, please reach out to us through the contact information provided on our website.
