Cookie Policy of The Crypto Pill

Last update: October 2025

This Cookie Policy explains how The Crypto Pill (ā€œweā€, ā€œusā€, or ā€œourā€) uses cookies and similar technologies on https://www.thecryptopill.com. We aim to keep the use of cookies minimal and transparent: we use only essential cookies for basic functionality and functional cookies where needed (e.g., Google reCAPTCHA). We do not use advertising or behavioral tracking cookies.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by the websites you visit. They help the site function properly, maintain security, remember your preferences, and—if enabled—provide additional functionality. Some cookies are set by us (ā€œfirst-partyā€), others by third parties.

2. Types of cookies we use

  • Essential cookies (always on): required for the website to operate (e.g., session management, security, consent storage). These do not require your consent.
  • Functional cookies (consent-based): enable specific features like Google reCAPTCHA to protect our forms from spam/abuse. These are loaded only after your explicit consent via the cookie banner/preferences.

3. Cookies we set

Name Type Purpose Duration
PHPSESSID Essential Maintains server session (e.g., CSRF token, rate-limit). Session
tcp_consent Essential Stores your cookie preferences (essential/functional). Up to 180 days

4. Third-party cookies

When you consent to functional cookies, we may load Google reCAPTCHA on our contact forms. This may set cookies and process limited technical data to verify that you are a human. For details, see: Google Privacy Policy and Google Terms.

5. Managing your consent

On your first visit, a banner lets you choose whether to enable functional cookies. You can change your choice anytime via the ā€œCookie Settingsā€ link in the footer. We will not load functional components (e.g., reCAPTCHA) unless you opt in.

6. Browser settings

You can block or delete cookies via your browser settings. Please note that blocking essential cookies may impair site operation. Links for common browsers: Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge (see each vendor’s help pages).

7. Changes to this Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect technical or legal changes. Updates will appear on this page with a new ā€œLast updateā€ date.
