Cookie Notice
Last updated: 7 October 2026
This notice describes the current browser-storage and tracking approach of byteandgear.com.
Our current setup
Byte & Gear does not currently set nonessential analytics, advertising or personalisation cookies. There are no embedded advertising scripts, social media widgets, newsletter forms or account login features. We serve fonts and editorial images from our own site.
Article search uses data delivered with the page and filters it in your browser. We do not use local storage to build a search history or marketing profile. Opening the navigation menu or search panel changes the page interface without setting a preference cookie.
Hosting and security
Cloudflare delivers the website and operates network security services. Depending on security features applied to a request, Cloudflare may use technical mechanisms or essential cookies to protect traffic and distinguish legitimate visitors. These functions are controlled by the hosting infrastructure rather than by advertising scripts in our pages. See Cloudflare’s cookie policy.
External links
Manufacturer and merchant websites have their own cookie practices. An affiliate destination may use referral cookies to attribute a purchase. Those practices apply on the destination site and are covered by its notice. See our Affiliate Disclosure for how commercial links work.
Your browser controls
You can inspect, block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking security mechanisms can affect access to websites. We will update this notice and introduce appropriate choices before adding nonessential tracking that requires consent.
