Cookie Policy

Effective date: September 20, 2026

Last updated: September 20, 2026

Short Version

XpertXbox uses essential cookies for basic site operation and consent storage. Optional analytics technologies are used only according to your consent choices where required. We do not currently use Meta Pixel, Google Ads remarketing or similar behavioural advertising trackers.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small files stored on your browser or device when you visit a website. They can help a website operate securely, remember choices, understand how visitors use the site and support third-party services.

Cookie Categories

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies and similar technologies support functions such as security, consent preferences, session management and basic website operation. Because they are necessary for the service you request, they cannot normally be disabled through our consent controls.

Analytics and Performance Cookies

With your permission where required, XpertXbox may use analytics services such as Google Analytics through Google Site Kit to understand how visitors use the Site. Analytics information may include pages viewed, referring pages, device or browser information, approximate location and interaction data.

Analytics cookies are optional and can be accepted or rejected through our Cookie Settings.

Functional Technologies

Some optional website features or third-party content may use storage technologies to remember preferences or provide enhanced functionality. Where these technologies require consent, they are used according to your selected preferences.

Affiliate Technologies

XpertXbox participates in affiliate programs, including Amazon Associates and AliExpress affiliate programs. When you click an affiliate link, the retailer or affiliate network may use cookies or similar technologies on its own website to identify that XpertXbox referred you and to attribute an eligible purchase.

XpertXbox may earn a commission from qualifying purchases at no additional cost to you. The retailer’s own privacy and cookie policies apply after you leave XpertXbox.

Advertising and Retargeting

XpertXbox does not currently use Meta Pixel, Google Ads remarketing or similar cross-site behavioural advertising or retargeting technologies.

If we introduce these technologies in the future, we will update this Cookie Policy and our consent controls before using them where consent or opt-out rights are required.

Our Consent System

XpertXbox uses its own XpertXbox Privacy & Consent system together with the WordPress consent framework to manage optional cookie preferences.

Our consent system records your choices so the Site can remember whether you accepted or rejected optional categories. Consent preferences may be stored for a limited period and can be changed at any time.

Open Cookie Settings

Global Privacy Control

Where supported and applicable, XpertXbox recognises Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals as privacy preference signals. GPC is designed to communicate a user’s preference regarding certain sale or sharing of personal information.

XpertXbox does not currently sell personal information or share personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising.

Third-Party Services

Third-party services may set or access cookies when you interact with their services. These may include:

Google Analytics and Google Site Kit;
hosting, content-delivery, security and technical services;
Amazon and AliExpress affiliate services; and
embedded or linked third-party content where applicable.

These providers operate under their own privacy and cookie policies. XpertXbox does not control cookies placed directly on a third party’s website after you leave our Site.

Managing Your Preferences

You can accept, reject or review optional cookie categories using our Cookie Settings.

You can also delete or block cookies through your browser settings. Blocking necessary cookies may affect some website functionality.

How Long Cookies Last

Cookie duration depends on the purpose and service involved. Some cookies last only for the current browsing session, while others remain for a defined period so your preferences can be remembered. Our own consent settings may be retained for a limited period before consent is requested again.

Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy if our website, analytics tools, affiliate services, consent system or legal requirements change. The latest version will always appear on this page with an updated date.
