1. Introduction

DontBurnUs.org (“Website”) uses cookies and similar technologies to enhance user experience, analyze usage, and ensure site functionality. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, your choices regarding cookies, and how you can manage them.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site recognize your device and remember preferences or actions over time. Cookies can be classified as:

Essential cookies: necessary for core website functions such as consent management.

Functional cookies: enable personalization (e.g., remembering your denial of consent so you aren't prompted again).

Performance cookies: collect anonymized usage data (e.g., page visits) to help us understand and improve the site.

Marketing/third-party cookies: track activity across websites for advertising or analytics (only included if applicable—no evidence of such on your site).

For example, the site already uses a cookie to remember if a visitor denied consent, to avoid re‑prompting them
