1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites may place on your computer, mobile phone, tablet, or other device when you visit them.
Cookies may allow a website or third-party service to remember certain information about your browser or device.
For example, cookies may be used to:
- Keep a website functioning properly
- Remember user preferences
- Understand how visitors use a website
- Measure website performance
- Prevent fraud or abuse
- Measure advertising effectiveness
- Limit how often certain advertisements are shown
- Support personalized or non-personalized advertising where applicable
Cookies do not necessarily identify you by name.
However, some cookie-related information may be considered personal data or personal information under applicable privacy laws when it can be associated with a particular user, browser, or device.
2. First-Party and Third-Party Cookies
Cookies may generally be divided into two categories.
First-Party Cookies
First-party cookies are placed or controlled by the website you are visiting.
Where Star Horoscope uses first-party cookies, they may help us operate the Website, remember preferences, understand Website activity, or improve the visitor experience.
Third-Party Cookies
Third-party cookies are placed or controlled by services other than Star Horoscope.
Depending on the technologies currently enabled on our Website, these third parties may include providers of:
- Website analytics
- Advertising
- Consent management
- Security
- Embedded content
- Performance measurement
- Other website functionality
Third-party providers may process information according to their own privacy and cookie policies.
3. Why Does Star Horoscope Use Cookies?
We may use cookies and similar technologies for several purposes.
These purposes may include:
Website Operation
Some technologies may be required for the basic technical operation, security, or functionality of the Website.
Analytics
Analytics technologies can help us understand how visitors discover and use Star Horoscope.
For example, analytics information may help us understand:
- Which pages are visited
- How visitors navigate between pages
- Approximate traffic volume
- Device or browser categories
- How long visitors interact with certain pages
- Which content is generally popular
We may use this information to improve the Website and our content.
Advertising
If advertising services such as Google AdSense are active on the Website, advertising providers may use cookies or similar technologies to serve, measure, limit, or personalize advertisements, subject to applicable law and the user’s consent choices where required.
Preferences and Functionality
Some cookies or local-storage technologies may remember settings or preferences that improve the visitor experience.
4. Categories of Cookies We May Use
Depending on our Website configuration and the services currently enabled, Star Horoscope may use the following categories of cookies.
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies or similar technologies may be necessary for important Website functionality, security, consent management, or technical operations.
Because these technologies are required for the operation of relevant features, they may not always be optional.
Examples may include technologies used to:
- Maintain Website security
- Prevent malicious activity
- Store privacy or consent preferences
- Maintain basic technical functionality
Analytics and Performance Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our Website.
We may use Google Analytics or similar services where enabled.
Google Analytics may use identifiers such as:
_ga
This cookie may be used by Google Analytics to distinguish visitors or measure Website usage.
_ga_<ID>
Cookies following this naming pattern may be used by Google Analytics in connection with measurement and session-related functionality.
The exact cookie names, purposes, and retention periods may change depending on our Google Analytics configuration and changes made by Google.
Analytics information is generally used to help us understand Website performance and improve our content and user experience.
Where required by applicable law, analytics storage may depend on your consent preferences.
5. Google Analytics
Star Horoscope may use Google Analytics, a website analytics service provided by Google.
Google Analytics may collect information such as:
- Browser and device information
- Approximate location based on technical information
- Pages viewed
- Session activity
- Referral information
- Interaction with Website content
- Other technical usage data
We use analytics information to understand general Website performance and visitor behavior.
We do not use Google Analytics for the purpose of personally identifying individual visitors by name.
The way Google collects and processes information is governed by Google’s applicable policies and settings.
Where required, analytics cookies or storage may be controlled by the user’s consent choices.
6. Advertising Cookies and Google AdSense
Star Horoscope may display advertising provided through Google AdSense or other advertising services.
Advertising providers may use cookies, device identifiers, local storage, or similar technologies for purposes such as:
- Serving advertisements
- Measuring advertisement performance
- Preventing advertising fraud
- Controlling advertisement frequency
- Generating aggregated reporting
- Selecting non-personalized advertisements
- Personalizing advertisements where legally permitted and appropriate consent has been obtained
The exact technologies used may vary depending on:
- The visitor’s region
- Consent choices
- Browser settings
- Google advertising settings
- Applicable laws
- Whether personalized or non-personalized advertising is being served
7. Personalized and Non-Personalized Advertising
Depending on your location and consent choices, advertisements displayed on Star Horoscope may be personalized or non-personalized.
Personalized Advertising
Personalized advertising may use information such as previous activity, interests, or other advertising signals to select ads considered more relevant to a user.
Where consent is legally required for personalized advertising, the relevant consent must be obtained before such processing occurs.
Non-Personalized Advertising
Non-personalized advertisements are generally selected using contextual information rather than a user’s personalized advertising profile.
However, advertising technologies may still use limited cookies or similar technologies for purposes such as:
- Frequency capping
- Aggregated reporting
- Fraud prevention
- Advertisement delivery
- Measurement
Therefore, choosing non-personalized advertisements does not necessarily mean that no technical storage or processing occurs.
8. Consent Management for Visitors in Europe
Privacy and electronic communications rules may require us to obtain consent before certain cookies or similar technologies are stored or accessed.
This can particularly affect visitors located in regions including the:
- European Economic Area (EEA)
- United Kingdom
- Switzerland
Where required, Star Horoscope may display a consent notice or Consent Management Platform (“CMP”) that allows eligible visitors to make privacy choices.
Depending on the consent system being used, available options may include:
- Accepting relevant cookies
- Rejecting certain optional cookies
- Managing categories of cookies
- Managing advertising personalization choices
- Revisiting or changing a previous consent decision
Strictly necessary technologies may operate where they are required for essential Website functionality or consent management.
9. Google Consent Management
Where Google advertising products are used, Star Horoscope may use Google’s consent-management features or another compatible consent-management solution.
Consent signals may be used to help services such as advertising and analytics understand whether particular forms of storage or processing have been permitted.
The exact consent interface and available choices may depend on:
- Your location
- Applicable law
- Website configuration
- Services enabled at the time of your visit
If a Privacy Choices, Manage Consent, Cookie Settings, or similar control appears on the Website, you may use it to review available options.
10. Cookies May Change Over Time
The specific cookies used on Star Horoscope may change.
This can happen when:
- We enable or disable a Website feature
- Google updates its technologies
- Analytics settings change
- Advertising services change
- A plugin or theme is updated
- Security technology changes
- Consent-management systems change
For this reason, a static cookie list may not always reflect every cookie that could appear on every device, browser, or region.
Where a consent-management platform provides a live cookie or vendor list, that interface may contain more current information about the technologies active for that particular visitor.
11. How Can I Control Cookies?
You may have several ways to control cookies and similar technologies.
These can include:
- A cookie or consent banner displayed by Star Horoscope

If Star Horoscope provides a Manage Consent, Privacy Choices, or similar link, you can use it to review available choices.

Google and other providers are responsible for their own processing activities according to their applicable terms, policies, and legal obligations.

Your available choices may depend on your:

Parents or guardians concerned about a child’s online privacy may also use browser, device, account, and parental-control settings to limit tracking technologies.
22. Do Not Track and Browser Privacy Signals
Some browsers may offer privacy signals such as “Do Not Track” or other mechanisms intended to communicate a user’s tracking preferences.
There is not always a uniform technical or legal standard requiring every website or third-party service to respond to every browser signal in the same way.
Where applicable privacy laws require recognition of particular privacy preference signals, we will endeavor to handle those signals as required.
