Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files stored on your computer or device when you visit a website. They're used to remember you and your preferences — either for a single visit (session cookies) or across repeat visits (persistent cookies). They may be set by the site you're visiting (first-party cookies) or by third parties that provide content, advertising, or analytics on the site (third-party cookies).

Websites and emails may also use "web beacons" or "pixels" — small transparent images that provide usage statistics. They work alongside cookies but aren't stored the same way. If you disable cookies, beacons may still load but with limited functionality.

We use cookies for a few purposes: keeping you logged in, remembering your preferences, understanding how people use our sites, and occasionally serving relevant advertising. Some cookies are set when a page loads; others are set when you take a specific action (clicking a button, for example).

Many cookies are only set for registered YAKKL users. Others are set for any visitor, regardless of account status.

We set cookies across our services, including:

• Our websites (yakkl.com, meridian.yakkl.com, and related subdomains)
• Administrative dashboards
• Sites we host for customers
• Services that use our plugins or embeds

Category	Purpose
Strictly Necessary	Required for the site to function — authentication, security, load balancing. Can't be disabled without breaking things.
Functionality	Remember your preferences (language, region, display settings) so you don't have to set them every visit.
Analytics & Performance	Help us understand how people use our sites — which pages are visited most, where users drop off, how long sessions last. We use this to improve the product.
Advertising	Set by us and advertising partners to show relevant ads and measure campaign effectiveness. These may build a profile of your interests based on browsing activity.

Most browsers let you control cookies through their settings. You can:

• Block all cookies (though some site features won't work)
• Block third-party cookies only
• Clear cookies when you close the browser
• Get notified before a cookie is set

For advertising opt-outs: visit optout.aboutads.info or networkadvertising.org. For Google Analytics specifically, install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Keep in mind that declining cookies may affect functionality. If you block all cookies, you won't be able to stay logged in, and personalization features won't work.
