Cookie Policy

Last updated: 9 August 2026

A cookie is a small file a site stores on your device. This page lists what espressogearguide.com can set, who sets it, and what happens if you refuse. The site is operated by NET STUDIO LLC, 1501 South Greeley Hwy, Ste C #1386, Cheyenne, WY 82007, United States.

Your choice comes first

Non-essential cookies are only set after you accept them in the consent banner. You can change your mind at any time through the cookie settings link in the footer.

Refusing them does not restrict any content on this site. Nothing is paywalled behind consent, and no article behaves differently if you say no.

What we can set

Strictly necessary. These keep the site working: security, load handling, and remembering your cookie choice itself. They cannot be switched off and they do not require consent. Typical lifetime: the browsing session, or up to 12 months for the record of your choice.

Analytics. Google Analytics 4, to count visits and see which articles are read. Set only with your consent. Typical lifetime: up to 24 months. Refusing it means we count you as one anonymous request in a server log, which is fine by us.

Affiliate attribution. Set by the destination retailer, never by us, and only at the moment you click through to that retailer. Lifetimes are set by the retailer and vary widely — from 24 hours on some programs to 90 days on others. What this means commercially is explained on the Affiliate Disclosure page.

Spam filtering. If you submit the contact form, Akismet may set a cookie to help distinguish you from an automated submission.

Advertising. No advertising cookies are set today. If display advertising is enabled later, the vendors will be listed on this page before anything is set, and consent will be required.

Managing cookies in your browser

Every major browser lets you block or delete cookies in its settings, and every major browser lets you do it without asking us. That is entirely your right. It usually affects other sites more than it affects this one.

Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control

We honour the Global Privacy Control signal where your browser sends it, and treat it as a refusal of all non-essential cookies.
