1. INTRODUCTION

At FOSTER! NEWS, we value our readers' privacy and aim to provide transparent information about the technologies used on our website.

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, why they may be used and how visitors can manage their preferences when accessing https://www.fosternews.net.

This policy supplements our Privacy Policy and Data Protection Policy.

2. WHAT ARE COOKIES?

Cookies are small text files that a website may store in a visitor's browser or device.

Depending on their configuration, they can help a website remember certain preferences, support technical functions, improve the browsing experience and collect statistical information about website performance.

Other technologies, such as local storage, tags and pixels, may perform similar functions.

3. TYPES OF COOKIES THAT MAY BE USED

The cookies present on FOSTER! NEWS depend on the website configuration, hosting platform and any external services that are enabled.

3.1. Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies may be essential for certain website functions, navigation, security or the operation of services requested by the visitor.

Where permitted by applicable law, strictly necessary cookies may be used without additional consent.

3.2. Preference cookies

These cookies may remember choices made by visitors, where such features are available.

3.3. Analytics cookies

Analytics cookies may help us understand how visitors interact with the website, which pages they view and how the content performs.

Their use depends on whether analytics tools are enabled. Where required, they will be activated in accordance with the visitor's consent preferences.

3.4. Advertising and tracking cookies

Certain external tools may use cookies to measure advertising campaigns, personalise advertisements or track activity across services.

These technologies should be considered part of FOSTER! NEWS's practices only if they are actually installed or enabled on the website.

4. WHY MAY COOKIES BE USED?

Depending on the features available, cookies and similar technologies may be used to:

Support website navigation and functionality.
Maintain security and detect abusive activity.
Remember certain preferences.
Analyse website performance and content usage.
Measure the performance of external tools, where applicable.

The technologies used should be limited to the purposes disclosed and the conditions that apply.

5. CONSENT AND PREFERENCES

Where required by applicable law, non-essential cookies should remain inactive until the visitor has given consent.

The website may display a cookie notice allowing visitors to accept all cookies or accept only necessary cookies. The options available depend on the configuration implemented.

Visitors should be able to make an informed choice about non-essential cookie categories and, where applicable, change or withdraw their consent.

The availability and operation of these options should be verified against the website's actual settings.

6. HOW TO MANAGE COOKIES

Visitors can manage cookies through their browser's privacy settings.

Depending on the browser, it may be possible to:

View stored cookies.
Delete existing cookies.
Block certain cookies.
Apply restrictions to specific websites.

Deleting or blocking certain cookies may affect some website functions or preferences.

Where the website provides a consent management panel, visitors may also use it to review their choices.

7. THIRD-PARTY COOKIES

Some website features may rely on external providers, such as hosting platforms, analytics services, embedded content or social media services.

These providers may use their own technologies in accordance with their respective policies.

FOSTER! NEWS does not have complete control over the cookie practices of external services. Visitors should therefore consult the relevant providers' privacy and cookie policies when accessing those services.

The specific tools and providers used should be identified according to the integrations actually enabled on the website.

8. COOKIE DURATION

Cookies may be session cookies, which are removed when the browser is closed, or persistent cookies, which remain for a defined period.

Their duration depends on their purpose, the website configuration and the terms of the provider that sets them.

The actual duration of each cookie should be checked against the tools implemented on FOSTER! NEWS.

9. PERSONAL DATA PROTECTION

Some cookies and similar technologies may collect or process information that, either alone or combined with other data, can identify or distinguish an individual.

Where this occurs, the processing should comply with the FOSTER! NEWS Privacy Policy and applicable data protection law.
