This Cookie Policy explains how TripoliPost.com (“we,” “our,” “us”) uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy. By continuing to browse TripoliPost.com, you consent to the use of cookies as described below.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, phone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They help the site remember your actions and preferences over time — such as language, login state, or display settings — so you don’t have to re-enter them on every visit.
We also use similar technologies like web beacons and pixels, which are covered by this policy.
2. How We Use Cookies
TripoliPost.com uses cookies for a limited set of purposes:
2.1 Essential Cookies
These are required for the site to function properly. They enable:
- Basic page loading and navigation
- Security and fraud prevention
- Load balancing across our servers
- Remembering cookie consent choices
You cannot opt out of essential cookies without breaking core site functionality.
2.2 Analytics Cookies
We use analytics cookies to understand how readers use TripoliPost.com — which articles are read, how long visitors stay, and where traffic comes from. This helps us improve our journalism and user experience. Data collected is aggregated and does not personally identify you.
2.3 Advertising Cookies (Google AdSense)
TripoliPost.com displays advertisements through Google AdSense and its partners. These cookies:
- Serve ads relevant to your interests
- Limit how often you see the same ad
- Measure ad performance
- Prevent fraudulent ad activity
Google and its partners may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site or other websites. You can learn more and opt out of personalized advertising at:
- Google Ads Settings: https://adssettings.google.com
- About Ads (DAA): https://optout.aboutads.info
- Your Online Choices (EU): https://www.youronlinechoices.eu
2.4 Newsletter Cookies
If you subscribe to our newsletter, we may use a cookie or similar identifier to:
- Recognize your subscription status
- Track whether you opened or clicked links in our emails
- Prevent duplicate sign-ups
We only collect your email address for newsletters — nothing more. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in every email.
3. What We Do NOT Use Cookies For
To be clear, TripoliPost.com does not use cookies to:
- Sell your personal data
- Track you across unrelated websites for our own purposes
- Collect sensitive information (health, financial, political views)
- Build user profiles beyond advertising and readership analytics
The only personal data we ever collect directly is your email address if you voluntarily subscribe to our newsletter.
