1. Introduction
This Cookie Policy explains how Earthfilter.ddd ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies, pixels, localStorage, and similar tracking technologies (collectively, "cookies") on earthfilter.world (the "Website"). This notice supplements our Privacy Policy and complies with U.S. federal guidance (including FTC expectations for transparent disclosure) and applicable state privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the CPRA and comparable laws in Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Texas, and other states.
Under many U.S. state privacy laws, information collected through cookies may constitute "personal information" or "personal data." Where required, we obtain your consent before placing non-essential cookies on your device.

3. What Are Cookies and Similar Technologies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. LocalStorage is a browser storage mechanism we use to remember your cookie consent choices. Pixels and web beacons are tiny graphics that may be used in emails or on web pages to measure engagement. These technologies help us operate the Website, remember preferences, and — only with your consent — understand usage patterns or deliver relevant content.
4. Cookie Categories
4.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These technologies are essential for the Website to function and cannot be disabled through our cookie settings panel. Under U.S. state privacy laws, these are generally necessary to provide the service you request. They do not require consent in most jurisdictions but are disclosed here for transparency.
| Cookie / Storage | Purpose | Duration | Provider |
|---|---|---|---|
| cookieConsent (localStorage) | Stores your cookie preference choices | 12 months | First party |
| cookieConsentDate (localStorage) | Records when consent was given or updated | 12 months | First party |
4.2 Analytics Cookies
These cookies collect aggregated information about how visitors use the Website, such as pages visited and time on site. They are placed only after you click "Accept All" or enable Analytics in Cookie Settings. Analytics data may be considered personal information under state privacy laws when linked to identifiers such as IP address.
| Cookie | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google LLC (if enabled) | Distinguishes unique visitors for traffic analysis | 2 years |
| _gid | Google LLC (if enabled) | Distinguishes users within a 24-hour period | 24 hours |
| _gat | Google LLC (if enabled) | Throttles request rate | 1 minute |
4.3 Marketing / Targeted Advertising Cookies
These cookies may track your activity across websites to measure ad campaigns or deliver personalized content. Under California and other state laws, this activity may constitute "sharing" for cross-context behavioral advertising. These cookies are activated only with your explicit consent through our cookie banner.
| Cookie | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| _fbp | Meta Platforms, Inc. (if enabled) | Measures and delivers advertising on Meta platforms | 3 months |
| ads_session | Third-party ad partner (if enabled) | Ad delivery, frequency capping, and conversion tracking | Session to 30 days |
5. Your Choices and Opt-Out Rights
When you first visit the Website, a cookie banner provides the following options:
- Accept All: enables strictly necessary, analytics, and marketing cookies.
- Reject: disables all non-essential cookies; only strictly necessary technologies remain active.
- Cookie Settings: allows you to enable or disable analytics and marketing categories individually. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled because they are required for core functionality.
U.S. state opt-out rights: residents of California, Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Texas, and other states with applicable privacy laws may opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information for targeted advertising. Because we do not sell personal information, your primary opt-out mechanism is to reject marketing cookies or disable them in Cookie Settings. You may also contact us at partners@earthfilter.world with the subject line "Opt-Out Request."
Global Privacy Control (GPC): we honor GPC browser signals as a valid opt-out of sharing for targeted advertising where required by applicable state law. If your browser sends a GPC signal, we treat it as a request to disable marketing cookies.
Changing preferences: clear your browser cookies and localStorage, then revisit the Website to display the consent banner again. You may also email us to request deletion of cookie-related data associated with your identifiers.
6. Browser and Device Controls
Most browsers allow you to block, delete, or manage cookies through settings. Instructions are available in your browser's help section (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, etc.). Mobile device operating systems may also provide advertising identifier controls. Note that blocking all cookies may prevent certain Website features from working correctly, including saving your consent preferences.
We do not respond to browser "Do Not Track" (DNT) signals because no industry standard has been adopted. We do respond to GPC signals as described above.
7. Third-Party Cookies
Third-party service providers may set cookies when you interact with embedded content or when you consent to analytics or marketing cookies. We do not control third-party cookies. Review the privacy policies of Google, Meta, and other providers for additional information about their data practices and opt-out tools, such as Google's Ads Settings and the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) opt-out page at optout.aboutads.info.
8. Relationship to Privacy Policy
Information collected through cookies may be combined with other personal information described in our Privacy Policy. You have the right to access, delete, and correct personal information collected via cookies as described in that policy. California residents may exercise CCPA/CPRA rights; residents of other U.S. states may exercise applicable state privacy rights.
9. Updates to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when we add new technologies, change providers, or when legal requirements change. The "Last Updated" date at the top reflects the most recent revision. Material changes may be communicated through a notice on the Website.
