This Cookie Policy explains how cannabud.ai uses cookies and similar technologies. For how we handle personal data more broadly, see our Privacy Policy.

1) What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device to make the site work, improve performance, and help us understand how you use our site. Similar technologies include pixels, tags, local storage and scripts. Some cookies are set by us (“first-party”), others by third parties.

2) How we get consent

We use CookieYes | GDPR Cookie Consent (integrated with WP Consent API) to display a banner and manage your choices. On your first visit you can Accept All, Reject All, or Customise categories. You can change or withdraw consent at any time via the floating cookie icon/footer link (or your browser settings).

  • Strictly Necessary cookies are essential and run without consent.

  • Preferences/Functional, Analytics/Performance, and Marketing cookies only run if you consent.

3) Cookie categories we use

A. Strictly Necessary (always active)

Purpose: deliver the website, keep you logged in (if applicable), route traffic, cache pages, remember your consent choices, and ensure security.

Typical sources on your site:

  • WordPress core & Elementor/Elementor Pro (session management, UI rendering)

  • Hostinger (hosting, security, load balancing)

  • CookieYes & WP Consent API (store consent signals)

  • WP Rocket (caching/performance essentials)

B. Preferences / Functional (consent-based)

Purpose: improve functionality such as chat and UI preferences.

Typical sources:

  • Tawk.to Live Chat (enables chat widget and remembers chat status)

  • Elementor (may remember UI states for better experience)

  • Rank Math SEO (may set small admin/front-end helpers for features you enable)

C. Analytics / Performance (consent-based)

Purpose: understand visits and usage so we can improve the site and content.

Typical sources (if enabled/configured by you in WordPress):

  • Site Kit by Google (e.g., Google Analytics 4)

  • Rank Math SEO (analytics modules you activate)

  • WP Rocket / Smush (performance metrics where relevant)

D. Marketing (consent-based)

Purpose: measure campaigns, manage subscriptions, and (if you enable it) tailor content.

Typical sources:

  • Brevo (Sendinblue) – email marketing forms, subscription tracking

  • HubSpot – forms, popups, CRM tracking (only if you enable tracking features)

  • Google services via Site Kit – e.g., Ads/remarketing (only if you explicitly connect/activate)

Important: Not all plugins set cookies on every page or in every configuration. Cookies actually used depend on which plugin features you’ve turned on. Your CookieYes banner lists the active cookies on your current visit.

4) Indicative list of cookies by provider

This overview helps explain purposes; names and lifetimes can change as plugins update. Refer to the CookieYes banner for the live, authoritative list.

5) Managing your preferences

  • Cookie banner: Click the cookie icon/footer link to open CookieYes settings and update choices at any time.

  • Browser controls: Most browsers let you block or delete cookies. See help for Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari, etc.

  • Do Not Track: We honour explicit consent under GDPR. Browser DNT signals are not a legal substitute for consent.

Blocking some cookies may impact site functionality (e.g., chat, forms, saved preferences).

6) Legal basis & transfers

  • Strictly necessary cookies run on the basis of our legitimate interests in providing a secure, functional site.

  • Other categories run on your consent.
    Some providers may process data outside the EEA. Where applicable, we use safeguards such as EU Standard Contractual Clauses. See our Privacy Policy for more.

7) Retention

Cookie storage periods vary by purpose and provider (see table above and your CookieYes panel). Consent records are retained to demonstrate compliance and may be refreshed periodically.

8) Updates to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect technology or regulatory changes. We’ll post the new version here with a new “Last updated” date.
