Cookie Policy
Last updated: October 18, 2026
This policy explains how Talipost uses cookies and similar technologies, why they may be used by our advertising or service partners, and how you can manage your choices. Please also read our Privacy Policy for information about personal information and how to contact us.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website may store in your browser or device. Similar technologies, such as local storage, may remember preferences or support site features. Some cookies are set by the website you are visiting (first-party cookies); others may be set by a separate provider whose services appear on that site (third-party cookies).
How Talipost uses cookies today
Talipost uses only the cookies described below. Public reading does not require an account. We do not currently run third-party analytics or advertising tags, or use cookies to build advertising profiles.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
talipost.cookie-consent | Remembers whether you accepted all cookies or rejected non-essential cookies so the preference banner does not appear on every page. It does not enable analytics or advertising. | Six months |
talipost.sid | Maintains a staff member’s signed-in session in the administration area. It is an essential service cookie, configured as HttpOnly and SameSite=Lax, and marked Secure in production. | Up to eight hours |
The staff-session cookie is used only for the restricted administration service. It is not required to read public pages. The consent preference is stored in a first-party cookie with the Secure attribute on HTTPS connections.
Story-view measurement
When a published story successfully loads, Talipost records one aggregate view for that story so newsroom staff can see its total views. The total is stored with the story in Talipost's database. This measurement does not set or read an analytics cookie, identify a visitor, or count unique visitors; repeat visits may count again.
Advertising, analytics, and other partners
We may introduce advertising, audience measurement, embedded content, or other third-party services in the future. If enabled, those providers may use cookies or similar technologies to deliver and measure advertisements, limit repeated displays, understand service performance, prevent fraud, or provide embedded features. Depending on the service and your choices, providers may receive information such as your browser or device identifiers, IP address, and interactions with pages or advertisements.
Google AdSense is a potential advertising service, but it is not currently enabled on Talipost. If advertising or analytics partners are introduced, we will update this policy to identify the services in use, describe their purposes, and explain the applicable controls before relying on them. Third-party providers process information under their own privacy terms and may act as independent controllers.
Your choices
When the cookie banner appears, you can choose Accept all or Reject non-essential. Your choice is remembered for six months. You can reopen the banner at any time using Cookie settings in the footer. Changing your choice affects future use of non-essential technologies; it does not remove cookies already stored by a third party.
Essential cookies that support the administration service cannot be disabled through the preference banner. You can use your browser settings to block or delete cookies, including essential ones, but doing so may prevent staff sign-in or affect site features. Browser controls vary by browser; consult its help pages for instructions.
The banner choices save your cookie preference. Story-view totals are first-party, aggregate measurements and do not depend on that preference or use analytics cookies. The choices do not activate or deactivate third-party advertising or analytics tags.
Advertising choices
If personalized advertising is introduced, you may also be able to manage it through provider controls such as Google Ads Settings and the Digital Advertising Alliance’s YourAdChoices tool. These controls apply to participating providers and do not replace your browser settings or Talipost’s own consent choices.
Some jurisdictions require particular consent and disclosure processes for advertising technologies. The cookie preference banner on this site is not a certified consent management platform and should not be treated as a substitute for any legally required or advertising-provider-specific consent mechanism. We will implement the applicable consent arrangements before enabling services that require them.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when our technology, partners, or legal requirements change. The date at the top of this page indicates when it was most recently reviewed. Please check this page periodically for current information.
