Cookie Policy

Last updated: September 2026

This policy explains how techbiz-sec.com uses cookies and similar technologies. Most are first-party cookies we set ourselves; we also allow Google to set advertising cookies, described below.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help websites function and remember preferences.

Cookies we use

  • Essential — session cookies (e.g. TBSESSID) that keep you logged in and protect forms with CSRF tokens. The site cannot function without these.
  • Preferences — your theme choice (dark/light) and cookie-consent decision, stored in your browser's local storage.
  • Remember me — an optional academy cookie (tbs_student_remember) that keeps you signed in for 30 days if you choose.

Analytics

We use lightweight, privacy-friendly first-party analytics that record page paths and a hashed IP. We do not build advertising profiles from this data or share it.

Advertising cookies

We show ads through Google AdSense. Google is a third-party vendor and uses cookies — including the DoubleClick cookie — to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. We do not control these cookies and we do not receive the personal data they collect.

Declining advertising cookies does not restrict access to any part of this site.

Managing cookies

You can accept or decline non-essential cookies via the banner shown on your first visit, and clear cookies any time through your browser settings. Blocking essential cookies may break login and forms.
