Cookie Policy

Last updated: July 17, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how thedoghabit.com (the “Site”) uses cookies and similar technologies (such as browser localStorage). It supplements our Privacy Policy.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device. Similar technologies, like localStorage, store small amounts of data in your browser. They can be “essential” (needed for the site to work) or “optional” (analytics, marketing).

2. What we use

Essential

Name Provider Purpose Duration
__cf_bm, cf_clearance Cloudflare Security and bot protection in front of the Site Up to 1 year
tdh_consent (localStorage) The Dog Habit Stores your cookie preferences Until you delete it
wordpress_*, wp-settings-* WordPress Set only for logged-in site administrators, not for visitors Session / up to 1 year

Essential cookies cannot be switched off — the Site does not work securely without them.

Analytics

We currently use no analytics cookies. If we introduce privacy-friendly analytics in the future, those cookies will load only after you give consent via Cookie settings, and this page will be updated with the details.

Third-party cookies after leaving the Site

If you click an affiliate link (e.g., to Amazon) or a link to our social profiles, the destination website may set its own cookies under its own policy. We have no control over those cookies. See the Amazon Privacy Notice and our Affiliate Disclosure.

3. Managing cookies

  • Use Cookie settings on this Site to change your preferences at any time.
  • Your browser lets you block or delete cookies for any website (see its help pages). Blocking essential cookies may break parts of the Site.

4. Changes

We will update this page whenever our use of cookies changes. The “Last updated” date shows the current version.
