Cookie policy
What cookies we use, why, how long they last, and how to control them. We keep the list as short as we can.
Last updated August 2026.
Cookies are small files a website stores in your browser so it can work properly and remember your choices. This policy explains the cookies WalletPicks uses. It sits alongside our privacy policy.
The cookies we use
| Type | Purpose | Duration | Consent |
|---|---|---|---|
| Essential | Keeps the site working: your theme choice, staying signed in, and protecting forms against abuse. | Session to a few months | Always on |
| Analytics | Helps us see which pages are useful, in aggregate. It does not build an advertising profile of you. | Up to about two years | Where required, on consent |
| Affiliate | Set by the destination retailer, not by us, to credit a referral when you click an affiliate link. | Set by the retailer | Their policy |
Essential cookies
These keep the site functioning: remembering your light or dark theme, keeping you signed in if you have an account, and guarding forms against spam and abuse. The site cannot work properly without them, so they are always on.
Analytics
Where you consent, we use privacy-respecting analytics to understand which pages are helpful, in aggregate. These cookies do not identify you personally to advertisers and are not used to follow you around the web.
Affiliate and advertising
When you click an affiliate link, the destination retailer may set its own cookies to credit the referral, under its own policy, which we do not control. If we ever add advertising, any non-essential cookies it needs will load only after you agree through our consent banner.
Controlling cookies
You can clear or block cookies in your browser settings at any time, and adjust non-essential cookies through our consent banner. Blocking essential cookies may stop parts of the site from working as intended.
