This Cookie Policy explains how Knowledge City, LLC ("KnowledgeCity," "we," "us") uses cookies and similar technologies on our websites, including www.knowledgecity.com (the "Site"). It is part of, and should be read alongside, our Privacy Policy.
By continuing to use the Site, or by selecting your preferences in our cookie consent banner, you agree to the use of cookies as described below. You can change your choices at any time using the "Cookie Settings" link in the Site footer.
1. What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit a website. Cookies allow the site to recognize your device and remember information about your visit. We also use similar technologies such as pixels, tags, and local storage — for simplicity, all are referred to as "cookies" in this policy.
Cookies set by us are first-party cookies. Cookies set by services we use, such as analytics or advertising platforms, are third-party cookies.
2. How long cookies last
- Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies remain on your device until they expire or you delete them. Expiration periods are listed in the cookie inventory available via "Cookie Settings."
3. Categories of cookies we use
We group cookies into four categories. You can accept or reject each non-essential category in the cookie consent banner.
a. Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are required for the Site to function — for example, to remember your cookie preferences, maintain a secure session if you log in, or load balance our infrastructure. They cannot be disabled in our consent banner because the Site will not work correctly without them.
b. Functional cookies
These cookies remember choices you make to improve your experience — for example, your language or region preference. Disabling them may reduce the personalization of the Site.
c. Analytics cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors use the Site, which pages are popular, and where errors occur. The data is aggregated and used to improve the Site. We currently use Google Analytics for this purpose.
d. Marketing cookies
These cookies are used to measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns and, where applicable, to show you relevant KnowledgeCity ads on other sites. They may be set by us or by advertising partners. Examples include Google Ads conversion tracking and LinkedIn Insight Tag.
4. Third-party services
The third-party services we currently use may set cookies through the Site. Each is governed by the service provider's own privacy policy:
- Google Analytics — analytics (Google Privacy Policy)
- Google Ads — advertising and conversion measurement (Google Privacy Policy)
- LinkedIn Insight Tag — campaign measurement on LinkedIn (LinkedIn Privacy Policy)
- YouTube — when you watch embedded videos (Google Privacy Policy)
If we add or remove a third-party service that uses cookies, we will update this list and the cookie inventory in the consent banner.
5. Managing your preferences
You have several ways to control cookies:
- Cookie consent banner — accept all, reject all, or choose categories. You can reopen the banner at any time from the "Cookie Settings" link in the footer.
- Browser settings — most browsers let you block or delete cookies. Instructions for major browsers: Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge.
- Do Not Track — we honor recognized signals where required by law, but the technical implementation of Do Not Track varies across browsers.
- Advertising opt-outs — you can opt out of personalized advertising from many providers via Your Online Choices (EU) or the Digital Advertising Alliance (US).
Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent parts of the Site from working correctly.
6. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights regarding cookies and the personal data collected through them, including under the EU/UK GDPR and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). See our Privacy Policy for details on how to exercise those rights.
7. Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date above reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will be communicated through the Site or by other appropriate means.
