This Cookie Policy explains how ShoutingNow uses cookies and similar technologies on shoutingnow.com. It supplements our Privacy Policy, which covers all personal data we process.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies include local storage (for example, remembering your cookie consent choice) and tags loaded through Google Tag Manager when you accept analytics.
How we use cookies
| Category | Examples | Purpose | Consent |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | sn_cookie_consent, session/security cookies from hosting |
Run the site, remember your cookie banner choice, protect against abuse | Not required — essential for operation |
| Analytics | Google Analytics (via Google Tag Manager) | Understand page usage and improve content | Required where law applies — loaded only after you click Accept |
| Functional | Comment form preferences | Remember optional fields if you comment on blog posts | May be treated as non-essential depending on jurisdiction |
Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics
When you accept analytics cookies, we may load measurement tags through Google Tag Manager, including Google Analytics. These services may set their own cookies and process data in the United States and other countries. Typical data includes pages viewed, referral source, device/browser information, and interaction events.

Managing your choices
- Cookie banner — click Accept or Reject when you first visit (or after clearing cookies).
- Browser settings — block or delete cookies in your browser preferences.
- Do Not Track / opt-out — use our Do Not Track page or email [email protected] for privacy requests.
- Global Privacy Control (GPC) — we honor validated opt-out signals alongside our cookie controls where technically feasible.

Third-party cookies
Embedded content or advertising partners may set their own cookies if shown on our pages. We do not control those cookies — review the relevant third-party policies.
