Cookie Policy for Quaxxo

Last updated: July 2026

Welcome to Quaxxo (quaxxo.com), an English-language blog dedicated to Materials Science — from crystallography and polymers to nanomaterials and biomaterials. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we and our trusted partners (including Google AdSense) use them, and how you can control your cookie preferences.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, smartphone) when you visit a website. They help the site remember your actions and preferences (such as language, font size, and other display settings) over a period of time, so you don’t have to re-enter them every time you return or browse from one page to another. Cookies can be set by the website you are visiting (“first-party cookies”) or by third parties such as analytics or advertising services (“third-party cookies”).

2. Types of Cookies We Use

On Quaxxo, we use three categories of cookies to ensure the site works properly, to understand how readers engage with our content, and to deliver relevant advertisements.

2.1 Essential (Strictly Necessary) Cookies

These cookies are required for the basic operation of our blog. They enable core functionality such as page navigation, access to secure areas, and remembering your cookie consent choice. Without these cookies, the site cannot function correctly.

• Session cookies that maintain your session while you browse.
• Cookie consent preference cookies (e.g., cookie_consent).

2.2 Analytics Cookies

We use analytics cookies (such as those from Google Analytics) to collect anonymous information about how visitors use Quaxxo. This data helps us improve our content, understand which articles are most popular, and identify technical issues. These cookies do not identify you personally.

• Page visit counts, time spent on site, and browsing patterns.
• Aggregated demographic and interest data (no personal identification).

2.3 Advertising Cookies (including Google AdSense)

Quaxxo participates in the Google AdSense program to display advertisements. Advertising cookies (often set by Google and other third-party ad partners) are used to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant ads on our site and across the web. These cookies track your visits to Quaxxo and other websites, measure the effectiveness of ad campaigns, and help prevent you from seeing the same ad repeatedly.

Please note that we do not control the cookies set by our ad partners. The specific cookies used may vary, but they are typically used for:

• Personalizing ads based on your interests and browsing history.
• Limiting the number of times you see a particular ad.
• Measuring ad impressions, clicks, and conversion rates.

3. How You Can Control Cookies

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your preferences in the following ways:

3.1 Browser Settings

Most web browsers allow you to manage cookie settings. You can typically block or delete cookies entirely, or configure your browser to ask for your permission before accepting a cookie. The exact steps depend on your browser. Below are links to instructions for common browsers:

• Google Chrome
• Mozilla Firefox
• Safari
• Microsoft Edge

Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of Quaxxo and limit your experience.

3.2 Opting Out of Ad Personalization

You can control how Google and other ad partners personalize ads. Visit the following resources to manage your preferences:

• Google Ad Settings: https://adssettings.google.com – here you can opt out of personalized ads from Google.
• Your Online Choices (EU): https://www.youronlinechoices.com – a platform to manage ad preferences across multiple ad networks.
• Network Advertising Initiative (NAI): https://optout.networkadvertising.org – opt out of interest-based advertising from NAI member companies.

Even if you opt out of personalized ads, you may still see non-personalized ads based on context (e.g., the content of the page you are viewing).

4. Third-Party Cookies & Embedded Content

Occasionally, Quaxxo may embed content from external services (e.g., YouTube videos, Twitter feeds, or research data repositories). These third-party services may set their own cookies. We do not have control over these cookies, and you should check the respective privacy and cookie policies of those services for further information.

5. Your Privacy Rights

For detailed information about how we collect, use, and protect your personal data, please read our Privacy Policy. The Privacy Policy explains your rights under applicable data protection laws (including GDPR, ePrivacy, and CCPA where relevant) and how to exercise them.

6. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legislation, or our data practices. When we make changes, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies.
