1. What Cookies Are, in Plain English
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device. They let the site remember you between page loads (so your checkout doesn't reset every time you click something) and let us see — anonymously — which pages help bloggers and which don't.
Some cookies are essential. Others are optional. The banner on blogger4me.com lets you decide which ones to allow.
2. The Cookies blogger4me Uses
| Cookie | Type | Set by | Purpose | Duration | Consent required? |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
__stripe_mid | Strictly necessary | Stripe | Fraud prevention during checkout | 1 year | No |
__stripe_sid | Strictly necessary | Stripe | Checkout session | 30 minutes | No |
b4m_session | Strictly necessary | blogger4me (Vercel) | Keeps your session alive between page loads | Session only | No |
b4m_consent | Strictly necessary | blogger4me | Remembers your cookie banner choice | 12 months | No |
_ga | Analytics | Google Analytics 4 | Distinguishes unique visitors | 14 months | Yes — opt-in |
_ga_<container-id> | Analytics | Google Analytics 4 | Maintains GA4 session state | 14 months | Yes — opt-in |
We do not use advertising cookies. We do not use third-party tracking pixels (no Facebook Pixel, no TikTok Pixel, no LinkedIn Insight Tag). We do not embed third-party social-media widgets that set cookies.
If we add any new cookie that isn't strictly necessary, we update this table and re-prompt you for consent before the cookie is set.
Marketing consent at Stripe Checkout (a separate, optional checkbox) is captured by Stripe and stored against your order record, not as a cookie on your device. See our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service for how that consent works. If a future build change moves any part of that mechanism into a cookie, we will update this table and re-prompt for consent before the cookie is set.
3. The Two Cookie Categories Explained
Strictly necessary cookies keep the site working. Without them, you can't check out, your session resets every time you click, and we can't remember that you've already answered the cookie banner. These are always on and don't require consent — this is consistent with the GDPR and the Australian Privacy Principles.
Analytics cookies (Google Analytics 4) tell us, anonymously, which pages people read, how long they stay, and where they came from. We use this to make the site better — for example, if nobody reads the FAQ, we rewrite it. These cookies require your explicit consent. If you say no, GA4 doesn't fire.
GA4 is configured with Google Consent Mode v2, which means no analytics data is collected before you give consent. The analytics_storage flag defaults to denied and only switches to granted when you explicitly accept analytics cookies via the banner.
4. How to Change Your Mind
You can change your cookie choice at any time:
- Re-open the cookie banner by clicking "Cookie settings" in the footer of any page on blogger4me.com
- Clear your cookies for blogger4me.com via your browser settings — the banner will reappear on your next visit. (Note: this will also clear your checkout session if you have one in progress.)
- Block cookies entirely via your browser settings — the site will still work for purchase and delivery; only analytics will be off
If you've already accepted analytics cookies and want them off, the cookie-settings link clears them within seconds.
5. Cookies and Your Privacy Rights
The same rights described in our Privacy Policy — access, correction, erasure, portability, objection, withdrawal — apply to any data we collect via cookies. Google Analytics 4 data is pseudonymised (we don't link it to your name or email), but if you want us to clear any GA4 identifier associated with your activity, email hello@blogger4me.com with the subject "Privacy request" and we'll initiate a deletion request through Google's available data-erasure mechanisms within 5 business days.
6. International Transfers from Cookies
Google Analytics 4 transfers data to the United States. We rely on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/914 of 4 June 2021) as the legal basis for that transfer, as incorporated into the Google Ads Data Processing Terms.
7. Children
blogger4me's kits are sold to adult bloggers. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 16 via cookies or any other channel. If you believe we have inadvertently collected data from a child under 16, email hello@blogger4me.com with the subject "Child data" and we will delete the data within 5 business days.
We monitor regulatory developments in this area — including Australia's Children's Online Privacy Code (expected registered by 10 December 2026) — and will update this policy if scope changes.
