This Cookies Policy explains how Edition Online, a news publication of Newswire Now Media Group (“we,” “us,” or “our”), uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website. It describes what these technologies are, why we use them, and how you can control them. Read this alongside our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They let a site recognize your device, remember your preferences, and understand how you use the site. Cookies can be “session” cookies, which expire when you close your browser, or “persistent” cookies, which remain until they expire or you delete them. We also use similar technologies such as pixels, tags, and local storage, all referred to here as “cookies.”
What types of cookies do we use?
We use four categories of cookies on Edition Online: strictly necessary, performance and analytics, functional, and advertising cookies.
What are strictly necessary cookies?
These cookies are required for the website to function. They enable core features such as page navigation, security, and access to protected areas. The site cannot operate properly without them, so they do not require your consent.
What are performance and analytics cookies?
These cookies collect anonymized information about how visitors use the site — pages viewed, session duration, and traffic sources. We use this data to measure performance and improve content. We rely on providers such as analytics platforms to process this information.
What are functional cookies?
These cookies remember your choices — such as language, region, or display preferences — to give you a more personalized experience. Disabling them may limit certain features.
What are advertising and targeting cookies?
These cookies help deliver relevant advertising and measure campaign effectiveness. They may be set by us or by third-party advertising partners and can track browsing activity across sites. You can opt out of these cookies as described below.
Do we use third-party cookies?
Yes. Some cookies are placed by third parties that provide services on our behalf, including analytics providers, advertising partners, and embedded content such as videos or social media. These parties set their own cookies and process data under their own privacy policies. We do not control third-party cookies, so review those providers’ policies for details.
How do we use cookies?
We use cookies to operate and secure the website, remember your preferences, analyze traffic and site performance, personalize content, and deliver and measure advertising. This helps us understand what our readers value and improve our reporting and services.
What are your choices and rights?
You control how cookies are used on your device. Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through their settings, and you can withdraw consent for non-essential cookies at any time through our cookie banner or preference tool.
Under the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act, Texas residents can opt out of the processing of personal data for targeted advertising and the sale of personal data. We honor recognized universal opt-out signals, such as Global Privacy Control, transmitted through your browser. To exercise these rights, use our cookie preferences tool or email us.
How do you manage cookies in your browser?
You can control cookies directly in your browser settings, including deleting existing cookies and blocking new ones. Instructions are available in the help section of major browsers such as Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may cause parts of the site to stop working.
How do we handle Do Not Track signals?
We respond to recognized universal opt-out mechanisms, including Global Privacy Control, as required under Texas law. Because there is no single industry standard for “Do Not Track” browser signals, we treat supported universal opt-out signals as a valid request to opt out of targeted advertising and sale of personal data.
Will this policy change?
We may update this Cookies Policy to reflect changes in technology, law, or our practices. We will post any revised version on this page with a new “Last updated” date.
