Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar technologies are used on the JustPickAi website (justpickai.com), why we use them, and how you can manage your preferences. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides further details about how we handle your personal data.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and supply information to the website operator. Cookies can be "persistent" (remaining on your device until they expire or you delete them) or "session" (deleted when you close your browser).
In addition to traditional cookies, we also reference localStorage, a browser storage mechanism that functions similarly to cookies but is not sent to the server with every request.
2. Cookie Categories
We categorise the cookies and similar technologies on our site into three groups:
a) Strictly Necessary
These are essential for the website to function. They enable core functionality such as remembering your cookie consent preference. You cannot opt out of strictly necessary cookies, as the website would not function properly without them.
b) Analytics
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information. This data helps us improve the website. These cookies are only set with your consent.
c) Advertising
Advertising cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are relevant to you and your interests. They may also be used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. These cookies are only set with your consent.

4. How to Manage Your Cookie Preferences
a) Our Consent Banner
When you first visit our website, a cookie consent banner is displayed, allowing you to accept or decline non-essential cookies (analytics and advertising). Your preference is saved in your browser's localStorage. You can change your preference at any time by clearing your browser's site data for justpickai.com and reloading the page, which will display the consent banner again.
b) Browser Settings
Most web browsers allow you to manage cookies through their settings. You can typically find these options in your browser's "Settings", "Preferences", or "Privacy" section. Common options include:
- Viewing and deleting individual cookies.
- Blocking all cookies or only third-party cookies.
- Receiving a notification before a cookie is set.
Please note that blocking all cookies may affect the functionality of this and other websites.
c) Google Opt-Out
You can opt out of Google's use of cookies for advertising by visiting:
- Google Ads Settings — Manage your ad personalisation preferences.
- Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-On — Prevents Google Analytics from collecting data about your visits.
- Digital Advertising Alliance Opt-Out — Opt out of interest-based advertising from participating companies.
