Cookie Policy

Last Updated: January 28th, 2026

At Geek Sessions, we believe in a transparent and open web. We use cookies to make our website work better for you and to understand how our community interacts with our content.

1. What are Cookies?

Think of cookies as small “config files” that your browser saves. They help us remember your preferences, keep you logged in (if applicable), and see which parts of our site are the most popular.

2. How We Use Them

We keep things minimal. We don’t use cookies to “stalk” you across the internet. We use them for:

  • Essentials: These make the site function correctly (e.g., your privacy preferences set via Complianz).
  • Preferences: Remembering things like your language or login status.
  • Media & Social: When we embed YouTube videos or social feeds, those platforms may drop their own cookies so you can like or share directly.
  • Analytics: We use Independent Analytics, which is much more privacy-focused than traditional tools. It helps us see how many people are visiting without collecting your personal identity.

3. Your Choice (The “Geek” Way)

You are in control. When you first visited, you saw our cookie banner. You can change your mind at any time:

  • Adjust Settings: Use the “Manage Consent” tab (usually in the bottom corner of your screen).
  • Browser Level: You can set your browser to block all cookies, though some parts of our site might not look as sharp.
