Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Keenpocket uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to improve your browsing experience and analyze how the Site is used.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember your preferences, recognize returning visitors, and provide certain functionality.

Types of Cookies We Use

1. Essential Cookies Required for basic functionality of the Site, such as page navigation and access to secure areas. These cannot be disabled.

2. Analytics Cookies help us understand how visitors use Keenpocket — which pages are popular, how long people stay, and where they come from. We primarily use Google Analytics for this purpose.

3. Advertising Cookies Used by Google AdSense and other advertising partners to deliver relevant ads, measure ad performance, and limit how often you see the same ad.

4. Functional Cookies Remember your preferences (such as language or region) to provide a better experience.

Managing Cookies

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. However, disabling certain cookies may affect Site functionality. Most browsers allow you to:

  • View what cookies are stored
  • Delete existing cookies
  • Block cookies from specific sites or all sites
  • Set cookies to expire when you close the browser

For instructions on managing cookies in popular browsers:

Google AdSense and Third-Party Advertising

Keenpocket displays advertisements through Google AdSense, a third-party advertising service provided by Google LLC.

How Google AdSense Works

  • Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on Keenpocket
  • Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this Site and other websites on the Internet
  • Google may use DoubleClick DART cookies for this purpose
  • These ads may be personalized based on your interests, browsing history, and demographic data

Your Choices Regarding Personalized Ads

You can opt out of personalized advertising at any time:

Even after opting out, you may still see advertisements — they just won’t be personalized to you.

Other Third-Party Advertisers

Some advertisers and ad networks other than Google may also place advertisements on Keenpocket. These third parties may use their own cookies, web beacons, or tracking technologies. We do not have access to or control over these technologies. Each third-party advertiser has its own privacy policy governing its data practices.

Analytics Services

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use Keenpocket. Google Analytics collects information such as:

  • How often users visit the Site
  • What pages they visit
  • What other sites did they use before coming to Keenpocket
  • General geographic location (country, city)
  • Device and browser information

Google Analytics uses cookies to collect this information. The data is aggregated and anonymized — we cannot identify individual users from Google Analytics data.

You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
