Cookie Policy
Last updated: 1 June 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Terrapulse ("we", "us" or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on the website terrapulse.surf (the "Website"). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the site owners. Similar technologies, such as local storage, perform comparable functions. We use the browser's local storage to remember your cookie consent choices.
2. How we use cookies
We use cookies to keep the Website secure and functional, to remember your preferences, and — only with your consent — to understand how our content is read so we can improve it. We group cookies into the categories described below.
3. Categories of cookies we use
| Category | Purpose | Consent required? |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Enable core functionality such as security, page navigation and remembering your cookie preferences. The Website cannot function properly without these. | No (always active) |
| Analytics | Help us understand how visitors interact with the Website — for example which articles are most read — on an aggregated, anonymised basis. | Yes |
| Marketing | Used to personalise content and to measure the effectiveness of campaigns. These may be set by us or by third-party partners. | Yes |
4. Managing your consent
When you first visit the Website, a cookie banner asks whether you would like to accept all cookies, decline non-essential cookies, or open the settings to choose category by category. Strictly necessary cookies are always active. Your choice is stored in your browser's local storage so we can respect it on future visits.
You can change your mind at any time by clearing your browser's site data for terrapulse.surf, which will cause the banner to appear again on your next visit.
5. Controlling cookies in your browser
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can usually block or delete cookies, or set your browser to notify you when a cookie is being set. Please note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect how the Website functions. For more information, refer to the help documentation of your specific browser:
- Google Chrome — Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies
- Mozilla Firefox — Settings → Privacy & Security
- Apple Safari — Preferences → Privacy
- Microsoft Edge — Settings → Cookies and site permissions
6. Third-party cookies
Some cookies may be set by third-party services that appear on our pages, such as embedded maps or analytics providers. We only allow non-essential third-party cookies after you have given consent. These third parties have their own privacy and cookie policies, which we encourage you to review.
7. Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the technologies we use or in legal requirements. The "last updated" date above shows when it was most recently revised.
