We keep our cookie usage minimal. mastersonthegrid.com does not use first-party tracking cookies, advertising cookies, or behavioral analytics cookies. We do not use Google Analytics or any cookie-based tracking platform.
Our analytics are server-side only (Netlify Analytics and Cloudflare Analytics), which means we can understand traffic patterns without placing any cookies on your device.
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which ones may be set when you visit our site, and how you can control them.
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. They are used for a variety of purposes, including remembering your preferences, keeping you logged in, and tracking your behavior across websites for advertising purposes.
Not all cookies are the same. First-party cookies are set by the website you are visiting. Third-party cookies are set by external services embedded in the page, such as social media widgets or video players.
Masters on the Grid does not set any first-party cookies on your device. We do not use session cookies, persistent tracking cookies, or preference cookies of our own.
While we do not set cookies ourselves, third-party services embedded on our site may set cookies on your device. These are outside our direct control.
| Service | Purpose | Cookie Type | More Info |
|---|---|---|---|
| YouTube (Google) | Video player functionality when you interact with embedded YouTube videos | Third-party functional / tracking | Google Privacy Policy |
| Beehiiv | Email subscription form functionality — may set a session cookie to prevent duplicate submissions | Third-party functional | Beehiiv Privacy Policy |
| Google Fonts | Typography — fonts loaded from Google's CDN. Google may log the request but does not typically set persistent cookies for font delivery | Technical / minimal | Google Privacy Policy |
We use YouTube's privacy-enhanced embed mode where possible, which reduces the cookies YouTube sets until you actively interact with the video player. However, once you click play on an embedded video, YouTube may set cookies in accordance with their privacy policy.
We use two server-side analytics services that do not require cookies or client-side tracking:
This approach gives us the traffic insights we need to improve our content without compromising your privacy or requiring your consent under most privacy regulations.
Even though our own cookie footprint is minimal, you can control all cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:
Blocking all cookies may affect the functionality of some embedded content on our site, including YouTube video players.
Our website does not engage in cross-site behavioral tracking, so the Do Not Track (DNT) browser signal does not materially change how our site functions. We do not track you across other websites regardless of your DNT setting.
We may update this Cookie Policy if we add new features or services that involve cookies. Any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated effective date. We will notify email subscribers of material changes.
