Cookie Policy

What cookies are, how PrimeHarbor uses them, and a simple panel to set your preferences — saved right here on your device.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They let a site remember things between pages and visits — for example, the preferences you have chosen. Similar technologies, such as local storage, work the same way. We use both sparingly.

2. How & why we use them

PrimeHarbor is an independent editorial site, not a shop, so we keep cookies to a minimum. We use them to:

  • remember your cookie preferences so we do not ask again on every visit;
  • keep the site working and secure; and
  • understand, in aggregate, which guides readers find useful.

3. The three categories

Essential (always on)

These are needed for the site to function and to remember your consent choices. They cannot be switched off.

Preferences

These remember choices you make — such as display settings — to give you a more consistent experience. They are optional.

Analytics

These help us measure how the site is used, in aggregate, so we can improve our content. They are optional.

4. Third-party cookies

Some cookies may be set by trusted third-party providers we use for analytics or email. These providers process limited information on our behalf. We do not allow third parties to use cookies on our site for unrelated advertising.

5. Managing cookies in your browser

You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers let you block or remove cookies and warn you before accepting new ones. Look under the privacy or security settings of Chrome, Safari, Firefox or Edge.

Blocking all cookies may affect how some parts of the site work, including our ability to remember your preferences.

6. Your cookie settings

Use the panel below to choose which optional cookies you allow. Your choice is stored locally on this device (under the key ph-cookie-consent) — we do not send it to a server, and it applies only to this browser.
