This Cookie Policy explains how BROOD Magazine Limited (“we”, “us”, or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies to recognise you when you visit our website at www.broodmagazine.com (the “Site”). It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners in order to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, BROOD Magazine) are called “first-party cookies.” Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called “third-party cookies.” Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., interactive content, analytics, and advertising).

Why Do We Use Cookies?

We use first-party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our Site to operate, and we refer to these as “essential” or “strictly necessary” cookies. Other cookies enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Site and through our third-party platform partners (such as Kajabi and Mailchimp).

Types of Cookies We Use

• Strictly Necessary Cookies: These cookies are essential to provide you with services available through our Site and to use some of its features, such as accessing secure areas or logging into your membership account.
• Performance and Analytics Cookies: These cookies collect information that is used either in aggregate form to help us understand how our Site is being used or how effective our marketing campaigns are, or to help us customise our Site for you.
• Functionality Cookies: These cookies are used to enhance the performance and functionality of our Site but are non-essential to their use. However, without these cookies, certain functionality (like video content or saved preferences) may become unavailable.
• Third-Party & Social Media Cookies: Content embedded from third parties (such as YouTube videos, TikTok embeds, Instagram feeds, or payment processing elements via Stripe) may set cookies over which we have no direct control. We recommend checking the respective third-party privacy and cookie policies for details.
