3. Administrative cookies
Certain tools used exclusively by WoWMecs administrators for support, maintenance or account verification purposes may generate additional technical cookies during those administrative operations. These cookies are not part of normal user browsing and are used solely to enable those administrative tools to function.
4. Cookies we do not currently use
WoWMecs does not currently use Google Analytics or Google AdSense, and no cookies intended for behavioural advertising, remarketing or analytical tracking of visitors have been identified.
Google Search Console is used as an administrative tool to analyse the website’s indexing and performance in search results, but its use does not by itself install analytics cookies in the browsers of WoWMecs visitors.
5. Consent
The cookies currently used by WoWMecs are technical or personalisation cookies required to provide features requested by the user, maintain sessions, enable authentication or remember the selected language.
For this reason, WoWMecs does not currently request consent through a cookie banner for these cookies.
If analytics, advertising or other technologies requiring consent are introduced in the future, WoWMecs will update this Cookie Policy and implement the necessary consent mechanisms before those technologies are used.
6. How to delete or block cookies
Users can configure their browser to allow, block or delete cookies stored on their device.
Blocking certain technical cookies may prevent users from logging in, retaining their selected language or using certain WoWMecs features correctly.
7. Changes to this Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy may be updated when the technologies used by WoWMecs change, new service providers are introduced or applicable legal requirements change.
The date of the latest update will be indicated at the beginning of this page.
