Last updated: June 2026
At Gravify.xyz, we are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring a transparent experience when you explore our blog about caving — from underground river systems to limestone formations and expedition gear. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and how you can manage your preferences when visiting our site.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They help the site remember your actions and preferences (such as language, font size, and other display choices) over a period of time, so you don’t have to re-enter them whenever you come back or navigate from one page to another. Cookies can be set by the site you are visiting (“first-party cookies”) or by third-party services embedded on the site (“third-party cookies”).
Types of Cookies We Use
We use the following categories of cookies on Gravify.xyz:
1. Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the basic functioning of our website. They enable core features such as page navigation, secure access to certain areas, and proper display of content. Without these cookies, the site cannot operate properly. Examples include session cookies that keep you logged in (if applicable) and cookies that remember your cookie consent choice.
2. Analytics Cookies
We use analytics cookies (e.g., Google Analytics) to understand how visitors interact with our blog. These cookies collect anonymous information such as which pages are visited most, how long users stay on a page, and whether they encounter any errors. This data helps us improve the content and user experience on Gravify.xyz. For example, we can see which caving articles are most popular and adjust our topics accordingly.
3. Advertising Cookies
Advertising cookies are used to deliver ads that are relevant to you and your interests. We work with third-party advertising partners, including Google AdSense, to display ads on our blog. These cookies track your browsing activity across different websites (including Gravify.xyz) to build a profile of your interests. This allows Google and other ad partners to show you personalized ads based on your previous visits and online behavior. They also help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns by counting ad impressions, clicks, and conversions. Without these cookies, the ads you see may be less relevant to you.
How We Use Advertising Cookies with Google AdSense
Google AdSense uses cookies to serve personalized ads. When you visit Gravify.xyz, Google may place a cookie on your browser to remember your preferences and browsing history. This enables Google to show you ads for caving equipment, outdoor gear, or other topics you have shown interest in. These cookies do not directly identify you personally, but they do recognize your device and browsing patterns. For more details on how Google uses data, please visit How Google uses information from sites or apps that use their services.
How You Can Control Cookies
You have the right to choose whether to accept or reject cookies. You can manage your cookie preferences in the following ways:
- Browser Settings: Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can usually block or delete cookies, or set your browser to alert you when a cookie is being placed. Please note that disabling essential cookies may affect the functionality of Gravify.xyz. For guidance, check your browser’s help section (e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge).
- Ad Personalization Opt-Out: To opt out of personalized advertising from Google and other participating ad networks, visit Google’s Ad Settings. You can also opt out of interest-based ads from multiple companies through the Digital Advertising Alliance’s opt-out tool or the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance.
- Cookie Consent Banner: When you first visit Gravify.xyz, you will see a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept or reject non-essential cookies (analytics and advertising). You can change your preferences at any time by clicking the “Cookie Settings” link in the footer of our site.
Third-Party Cookies
In addition to Google AdSense, we may use other third-party services (such as embedded videos from YouTube or social media sharing buttons) that may set their own cookies. These third parties have their own cookie policies, and we encourage you to review them. We do not control these cookies.
