Last updated: June 2026
Welcome to Umbraium, an English-language blog dedicated to On-Page SEO. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them on umbraium.com, and your choices regarding their use. By continuing to browse our site, you consent to the use of cookies as described below.
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 site remember your actions and preferences (such as login state, language, and display settings) over a period of time, so you don’t have to re-enter them every time you return. Cookies can be “first-party” (set by us) or “third-party” (set by services we use).
2. Types of Cookies We Use
We use the following categories of cookies on Umbraium:
Essential Cookies
These are necessary for the basic functioning of our blog. They enable core features like page navigation, security, and access to secure areas. Without these cookies, the site cannot operate properly. Examples include session cookies that maintain your browsing session.
Analytics Cookies
We use analytics cookies (e.g., from Google Analytics) to understand how visitors interact with our content. These cookies collect aggregated information about page visits, time spent on site, and traffic sources. This data helps us improve our On-Page SEO articles and user experience. They are non-essential but help us serve you better.
Advertising Cookies
Umbraium participates in the Google AdSense program (and may work with other third-party ad partners). Advertising cookies are used to:
- Deliver personalized advertisements that are relevant to your interests.
- Measure the performance and effectiveness of ad campaigns.
- Limit the number of times you see the same ad.
- Build a profile of your browsing habits across websites for targeted advertising.
These cookies are placed by Google and its partners. They may track your visits to Umbraium and other websites. The information collected is anonymous and does not directly identify you as an individual.
AdSense & Third-Party Ad Partners: Google AdSense uses cookies to serve ads based on your previous visits to this site and other sites on the internet. You can learn more about how Google uses data at Google’s Partner Sites Policy.
3. How to Control and Delete Cookies
You have full control over cookies. Here are the ways you can manage them:

Even if you opt out of personalization, you may still see non-personalized ads based on general context (e.g., the content of the page).
4. How We Use Cookie Data
