Cookie Policy

Cookies and similar technologies are small files or identifiers stored by your browser when you visit a website. They help websites operate, remember preferences, measure usage, and enable embedded third-party content.

TinyCTO.tv uses Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager to measure website usage, performance, and audience behaviour. These tools use cookies to help us improve the platform.

TinyCTO.tv may use:

• essential cookies required for website functionality and security;
• preference cookies if we add settings such as consent or display preferences;
• analytics cookies (Google Analytics) to measure site performance;
• third-party cookies from embedded content, such as YouTube videos.

Essential cookies are necessary for the website to function correctly and may be used without optional consent where permitted by law. They do not track you for marketing purposes.

For example, if you participate in interactive features like Voice Auditions, we use a secure, anonymous session cookie (voice_audition_session) solely to enforce rate limits and ensure voting integrity. This cookie contains no personally identifiable information and is not used for cross-site tracking.

We use Google Analytics to measure site traffic and engagement. This service may set cookies or use similar tracking technologies. We do not currently use third-party marketing or cross-site behavioural advertising trackers.

Note: Yahoo Analytics endpoints may be present in the site's Content Security Policy allowlist for preparatory compatibility, but no Yahoo analytics script or telemetry is currently loaded.

Consent gating remains a recommended post-launch compliance hardening task.

Embedded YouTube videos or other third-party content may set cookies or collect data under their own privacy and cookie policies. YouTube may track interactions with embedded videos even if you are not signed in.

You can avoid third-party embed tracking by not interacting with embedded content, or by adjusting your browser settings to block third-party cookies.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block, delete, or restrict cookies. Blocking some cookies may affect website functionality.

If a consent banner or cookie preference centre is implemented in the future, you will also be able to manage non-essential cookie preferences through that tool.

TinyCTO.tv does not currently sell personal information or share personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising. If this changes, we will provide required notices and opt-out mechanisms.

We may update this Cookie Policy as the website evolves, including if we add analytics, embedded media, advertising, affiliate tracking, or other third-party technologies. The updated version will be posted on this page.
