4. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

titanfiy.com uses cookies and similar technologies for essential site functions, analytics, and advertising. Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your web browser.

4.1 Types of Cookies We Use

• Essential cookies: Required for basic site functionality (e.g., remembering comment preferences).
• Analytics cookies: We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors navigate our blog. These cookies collect anonymized data about page views, time on site, and referral sources.
• Advertising cookies: Third-party ad networks (including Google AdSense) may place cookies on your browser to serve ads relevant to your interests. See Section 5.

You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or remove cookies. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of our site.

5. Third-Party Advertising & Personalized Ads

5.1 How Ads Use Cookies & Device Identifiers

Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to our website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet. These cookies may collect:

• Your IP address (truncated for anonymization).
• Browser type and version.
• Pages visited and time spent on those pages.
• Device identifiers (e.g., advertising ID on mobile devices).

5.2 Opting Out of Personalized Advertising

You have choices regarding personalized ads:

• Google Ads Settings: Visit adssettings.google.com to opt out of Google's personalized ads.
• AboutAds.info: Visit www.aboutads.info/choices to opt out of interest-based advertising from participating companies.
• Network Advertising Initiative (NAI): Opt out at optout.networkadvertising.org.
• You can also adjust your device's advertising identifier settings (iOS: Settings > Privacy > Advertising; Android: Settings > Google > Ads).

Opting out does not mean you will no longer see ads — it means the ads you see may be less relevant to your interests.

5.3 Ad Networks We May Use

We may work with Google AdSense, Mediavine, or other ad networks. Each network has its own privacy policy. We encourage you to review their policies for more details.

6. Analytics

We use Google Analytics to collect aggregated data about site traffic and user behavior. Google Analytics uses cookies to track how visitors interact with our blog. The information generated is transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. We have enabled IP anonymization to mask your IP address. You can learn more about Google's privacy practices at policies.google.com/privacy.

To opt out of Google Analytics tracking, you can install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information. We may share data in the following circumstances:

• Service providers: With trusted third parties (e.g., hosting provider, analytics, anti-spam services) who assist us in operating our blog, provided they agree to keep your information confidential.
• Legal requirements: If required by law or in response to valid legal requests (e.g., court orders, subpoenas).
• Advertising partners: As described in Section 5, ad networks may collect data through their own cookies and technologies.

8. Data Retention
