Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, or other device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better browsing experience, and give website owners useful information about how their site is being used.

Cookies can be "persistent" or "session" cookies. Persistent cookies remain on your device when you go offline, while session cookies are deleted as soon as you close your web browser. Cookies can also be first-party (set by the website you are visiting) or third-party (set by a service used by the website, such as an advertising or analytics provider).

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies SlangWatch ("we", "us", or "our") uses, why we use them, and how you can control and manage them. By continuing to use our website, you consent to the use of cookies as described in this policy.

SlangWatch uses cookies for several important purposes to ensure our website functions correctly and provides the best possible experience for our visitors. Below we explain each category of cookies we use.

Essential cookies are necessary for the basic functionality of our website. Without these cookies, certain features of the site cannot work properly. These cookies do not collect personal information and are typically set in response to actions you take on the site, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms.

SlangWatch uses Google AdSense and Ezoic to display advertisements on our website.

We use analytics cookies to understand how visitors interact with our website. These cookies help us measure the number of visitors, see which pages are most popular, and understand how visitors navigate through the site. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous.

In addition to our own cookies, third-party vendors and advertising networks may place cookies on your device when you visit SlangWatch.
