Cookie Policy
The cookies daveradley.com uses, why we use them and how to change your choices. Last updated 6 October 2026.
01 / Cookies
What cookies are
Cookies are small files that a website stores on your device. Websites can also keep information in your browser’s own storage, which works in a similar way. This policy covers both, and calls them all cookies.
02 / Cookies
Your choices
When you first visit, we ask whether you are happy for us to use analytics cookies and to play YouTube videos. Nothing beyond what is strictly necessary is stored unless you say yes. Rejecting is as easy as accepting, and the website works either way.
You can change your mind at any time with the cookie button in the bottom corner of every page, or the Cookie settings link in the footer. You can also delete cookies in your browser’s settings.
03 / Cookies
Strictly necessary
dr_consent_v1 is kept in your browser’s storage by this website. It remembers your cookie choices so we do not ask you on every page, and stays until you clear your browser’s storage. It only records the choices you made, so it does not need consent.
People who log in to manage the website also receive WordPress login cookies. Visitors never do.
04 / Cookies
Analytics, only with your consent
We use Google Analytics to understand how people find and use the website, so we can improve it. If you accept analytics cookies, Google Analytics sets two:
_ga tells one visitor apart from another. It does not tell us who you are. It lasts 2 years.
_ga_PRNBMKPB21 keeps track of your current visit. It lasts 2 years.
The Google Analytics script loads on every page in a restricted mode before you choose, so Google receives your IP address and the address of the page with that request. Until you accept, it sets no cookies. Google explains how it uses information from websites at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
05 / Cookies
YouTube videos, only with your consent
Our Media page includes interviews with Dave from YouTube, which is owned by Google. The videos only load if you allow videos in your cookie choices or press a video’s Play button.
When a video loads, YouTube sets its own cookies and stores information in your browser, under Google’s privacy policy. We use YouTube’s privacy-enhanced mode, in which YouTube says your viewing is not used to personalise your YouTube experience or the adverts you see.
