Cookie Policy
Last updated: 30 September 2026
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that websites can place on a visitor’s computer, phone, tablet, or other device. They can support functions such as authentication, security, remembering preferences, and measuring how a website is used.
Similar technologies—including local storage and session storage—can also store or access information through a browser. This Cookie Policy uses “cookies” where convenient to include those similar technologies unless the context requires a distinction.
2. Who operates the site
DropToolkit.com is operated by Eduardo Tureta.
Eduardo Tureta is the data controller for personal information processed through DropToolkit.com for the purposes of applicable UK data-protection law.
3. Contact details
Questions about cookies, browser storage, privacy, or data-protection rights may be sent to:
hello@droptoolkit.com
4. Cookies currently used
During ordinary unauthenticated browsing, DropToolkit.com uses Termly to provide consent-management controls. Termly may use cookies or similar technologies needed to present the consent interface and remember relevant consent choices.
Non-essential cookies or similar technologies are used only where the visitor grants the relevant consent through Termly. The Termly cookie declaration and Consent Preferences control provide the current details of relevant categories, technologies, and choices.
Google Tag Manager is used to manage consent-controlled analytics implementation. Google Analytics 4 is configured to load only after the visitor grants the relevant analytics consent through Termly.
Limited cookies or browser storage may also be used when a visitor or administrator actively uses particular functions, as described below.
5. Essential and functional technologies
Essential or functional technologies may be used where needed to provide a feature requested by the user, maintain security, authenticate an administrator, or remember a preference selected by the user.
The current public site does not set a general essential-cookie identifier merely because someone visits a public page.
The homepage includes a theme preference that can be saved in browser local storage when a visitor deliberately selects a light or dark appearance. The stored value remains in that browser until it is changed or removed by the visitor or browser.
6. WordPress administrator cookies
DropToolkit.com uses WordPress to operate parts of the website.
When an authorised administrator visits the WordPress login or administration area, WordPress may use temporary, authentication, session, language, security, and interface-preference cookies. These cookies support login testing, authenticated access, administration security, and interface preferences.
These administrative cookies are not intended for ordinary unauthenticated visitors. Their exact names and durations may depend on WordPress configuration and the administrator’s login choices.
Public user registration and public customer accounts are not currently enabled.
7. Comment cookies
Comments are currently available on the published blog post.
The comment form offers visitors an optional choice to save their name, email address, and website in their browser for the next time they comment. If the visitor selects that option and submits a comment, WordPress may set comment-preference cookies.
These cookies are not set merely by viewing the post. They are associated with the commenter’s optional selection. Their exact generated names and durations may depend on the active WordPress configuration.
8. Akismet and anti-spam behaviour
DropToolkit.com currently uses Akismet Anti-spam to help detect and prevent spam in WordPress comments.
When a visitor submits a comment, the comment submission information and associated technical data may be processed by Akismet and its service provider for spam-detection and abuse-prevention purposes.
Akismet did not set a confirmed frontend cookie merely from viewing the audited public comment form. Akismet is not used or described here as an analytics, advertising, or visitor-profiling service.
9. Browser storage
The public homepage can use local storage to remember a visitor’s selected light or dark theme. The relevant storage key is currently theme.
No browser-storage use was detected in the tools index or the five calculator pages. Calculator inputs and results are not currently confirmed as being persisted in local storage or session storage.
WordPress also includes browser-side feature-detection code that can use session storage for emoji-support information. No such value was created during the clean-browser audit. Session storage is normally limited to the relevant browser session.
10. Third-party and embedded content
The website currently requests font resources from Google Fonts. When the visitor’s browser retrieves a resource from a third-party server, technical request information—such as the visitor’s IP address and browser request information—may be visible to that provider.
No cookie from Google Fonts was observed during the clean-browser audit.
No iframe, embedded video, social-media feed, or comparable third-party content was detected on the audited production pages. If additional embedded services are introduced, they may use their own cookies or similar technologies under their respective policies.
11. Analytics
DropToolkit.com uses Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use the website and to help improve website content, tools, and user experience.
Google Analytics 4 is configured to load only after the visitor grants the relevant analytics consent through Termly. If that consent is not granted or is withdrawn, analytics processing is not intended to load through the public website.
Where analytics consent is granted, analytics-related cookies or similar technologies may process online identifiers, browser or device information, pages viewed, interactions, technical request information, and general usage information for those purposes.
Current information about consent choices and applicable cookie or storage categories is available through the Termly cookie declaration and Consent Preferences control.
12. Advertising
Google AdSense and other confirmed display-advertising scripts are not currently active on the audited public website.
No advertising cookie or advertising frontend script was detected.
If display advertising is introduced later, this policy will be updated to identify the relevant provider and explain the applicable cookies, purposes, choices, and retention information. Consent will be obtained before non-essential advertising technologies are activated where required.
13. Affiliate tracking
DropToolkit.com may publish affiliate links in the future, but no confirmed affiliate-program tracking links or affiliate-tracking cookies are currently installed.
If an affiliate relationship later uses cookies or similar technologies to attribute a referral, the relevant disclosure and Cookie Policy information will be updated. Any consent required for non-essential tracking will be obtained before such technology is activated.
14. Newsletter and Hostinger Reach
DropToolkit.com provides a public newsletter signup form. The form uses a custom server-side subscription process that sends subscription information to Hostinger Reach, our email-marketing service provider.
The newsletter form does not use a native Hostinger Reach iframe or frontend Reach embed. Newsletter subscription processing is principally personal-data processing rather than a cookie-dependent frontend integration.
Newsletter subscriptions use double opt-in. Further information about newsletter processing, subscription records, retention, withdrawal of marketing consent, and data-protection rights is provided in the Privacy Policy.
15. Consent-management platform
DropToolkit.com uses Termly as its consent-management platform. Termly provides the consent banner, the Consent Preferences control, and the current cookie declaration for the public website.
Visitors can use Termly to accept, reject, review, change, or withdraw relevant consent choices. Essential or strictly necessary technologies may operate where needed to provide the website, maintain security, or remember relevant consent choices. Non-essential technologies are applied only where the visitor grants the relevant consent.
Visitors can reopen Consent Preferences at any time through the Consent Preferences link in the website footer.
16. Future non-essential cookies
If DropToolkit.com introduces a new or materially changed non-essential technology—such as advertising, affiliate tracking, contact-form technology, embedded services, or another feature that uses cookies or browser storage—that technology will be reviewed before activation.
Where consent is required:
- clear information will be provided about the technology and its purpose;
- non-essential storage will not be activated before the visitor makes an affirmative choice;
- rejecting non-essential technologies will be made available;
- consent choices will be capable of being changed or withdrawn; and
- this Cookie Policy will be updated to reflect the implemented service rather than a proposed or inactive service.
17. Managing cookies in the browser
Most browsers allow users to view, delete, block, or restrict cookies and stored site data. Browser controls may also allow users to clear local storage and session storage.
Blocking all cookies can prevent WordPress administrators from signing in and may stop optional preferences from working. Removing local storage may reset the homepage theme preference.
Instructions vary by browser and device. Visitors should consult their browser’s privacy, security, cookie, or site-data settings for the controls available to them.
18. Withdrawing consent
Where a non-essential cookie or similar technology relies on consent, that consent may be withdrawn at any time without affecting processing already undertaken lawfully.
Visitors can reopen the Termly Consent Preferences control at any time through the Consent Preferences link in the website footer. There they can review, change, reject, or withdraw relevant consent choices.
A visitor can also:
- leave the comment-preference checkbox unticked;
- remove any previously stored comment-preference cookies through browser settings;
- remove or change the homepage theme preference through the site or browser storage controls; and
- contact hello@droptoolkit.com with a privacy or cookie question.
19. Updates to this Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy may be updated when the website’s functionality, service providers, legal requirements, or use of cookies and browser storage changes.
The “Last updated” date at the top of this page will identify the current version. Material changes will be explained or presented for fresh consent where required.
