1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device — computer, smartphone, or tablet — when you visit a website. They are widely used by website operators to make their sites work more efficiently, to improve user experience, and to provide reporting information.
Cookies set by the website operator (in this case, Jointpowerherbs) are called "first-party cookies". Cookies set by parties other than the website operator are called "third-party cookies". Third-party cookies enable features or functionality provided by external parties to be used within our editorial platform (e.g., analytics services, embedded content).
Cookies can be persistent (remaining on your device for a set period of time) or session-based (deleted as soon as you close your browser).
2. Types of Cookies We Use
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for our editorial platform to function properly. They enable core features such as page navigation, access to secure areas, and session management. The platform cannot function optimally without them. You cannot opt out of these cookies.
Analytical / Performance Cookies
These cookies allow us to count visits and measure traffic on our platform so we can understand which articles and editorial content perform best. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. It helps our editorial team improve how the platform works.
Functional Cookies
These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalisation for readers, such as remembering your preferred language, font size settings, or the region you are reading from. They may be set by our editorial team or by third-party providers whose tools we have added to our content pages.
Targeting / Preference Cookies
These cookies may be set through our platform by our content partners. They may be used to build a profile of your reading interests and show you relevant editorial content on other platforms. They do not directly store personal information but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and device.
3. How We Use Cookies
At Jointpowerherbs, cookies serve several editorial and operational purposes on our platform:
- Measuring reader engagement: We use analytics cookies to understand which articles and topics resonate most with our audience, helping our editorial board decide what content to publish next.
- Improving platform performance: Technical cookies help us identify and fix issues with page loading, broken links, and content display so readers have a smooth experience.
- Remembering your preferences: Functional cookies store your reading preferences such as content category filters, so returning visitors find the platform easier to navigate.
- Facilitating third-party content: Some articles include embedded content (e.g., videos, infographics) from third-party providers. These partners may place their own cookies when that content loads.
- Security and integrity: Strictly necessary cookies help protect the platform from misuse and ensure that our editorial content is served securely to all readers.
