Cookie Policy
Last updated September 18, 2026.
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies are used on Zodiac Quill (https://zodiacquill.com/), and how you can control them. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which describes the wider handling of personal data on this site.
What cookies are
A cookie is a small text file that a website, or a third party acting on its behalf, asks your browser to store. Cookies allow a site to recognise your browser on later visits, to remember a preference, or to measure how a page is used. Some cookies are deleted when you close the browser (session cookies); others remain for a set period (persistent cookies).
Cookies are not the same as the files that make up the site itself. They are held by your browser, and you can read, block, or delete them at any time through your browser settings.
Technologies that work in a similar way — for example local storage, pixels, and device identifiers — are covered by the same principles. Where this policy says "cookies," it means these technologies too.
Cookies used on this site
The pages of Zodiac Quill do not set first-party tracking cookies of their own. The cookies you may encounter come from third-party services that are loaded when you open a page. They fall into three groups.
Essential
Zodiac Quill is a static site without user accounts, logins, shopping carts, or comment systems. Accordingly, it sets no essential first-party cookies and stores nothing about your session beyond what your browser does automatically to fetch and display the pages.
Advertising
This site is supported by display advertising served by third-party vendors, including Google. These vendors use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website and to other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet.
Advertising cookies are used to limit how often you see the same ad, to measure the performance of a campaign, and — where you have consented to it or where your region permits it — to select advertising that is more relevant to you. They are set and read by the advertising vendors, not by Zodiac Quill.
You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised advertising at www.aboutads.info, or, in the European Economic Area, at www.youronlinechoices.eu. For more on how Google uses information from sites that use its services, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.
Font delivery
Pages load their typefaces from Google Fonts. That is a request made by your browser to Google's servers, and Google may record the request in the ordinary course of delivering the file. No cookie is required to read the articles, and no Google account or sign-in is needed to use this site.
How to control cookies
Every major browser lets you see which cookies are stored, delete individual cookies or all of them, block third-party cookies, and set a preference to be asked before a cookie is written. The relevant settings are usually found under a "Privacy" or "Security" heading in the browser menu. Guidance for the most common browsers is published here:
Blocking all cookies does not prevent you from reading Zodiac Quill. It may, however, cause advertising to become less relevant to you and may affect how some external services behave.
Withdrawing consent
Where the law requires consent for advertising or analytics cookies — including in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland — those cookies are set only after you accept them through the consent notice shown on your first visit.
You can withdraw that consent at any time. The simplest way is to clear this site's cookies in your browser, which resets the notice so that you will be asked again. You can also change your choice through the consent notice itself if it remains available on the page, or block third-party cookies entirely in your browser settings. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdrew it.
Changes to this policy
The date at the top of this page will change whenever this policy changes. If the categories of cookies used on the site change — for example if a new analytics service is introduced — this page will be revised at the same time as the code change, not afterwards.
