Last Updated: January 31, 2026

At Paper Is Blue, we are committed to protecting your privacy and providing transparency about how we use cookies and similar technologies on our website. This Cookies Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, the types of cookies we employ, and your choices regarding their use. Our website provides daily latest news content related to gaming and technology, and we use cookies to enhance user experience, analyze site performance, and deliver relevant advertising.

By using our website, you consent to the use of cookies in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree, please disable cookies through your browser settings or refrain from using the site.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, or tablet) by websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the site owners. Cookies can store information such as your preferences, session data, or browsing behavior.

Similar technologies, such as web beacons, pixels, and local storage, may also be used for similar purposes. For simplicity, we refer to all these as "cookies" in this policy.

Cookies can be "persistent" (remaining on your device until deleted) or "session" (deleted when you close your browser).

Why Do We Use Cookies?

We use cookies for the following purposes:

  • Essential Functionality: To enable core features of the website, such as navigation and access to secure areas.
  • Performance and Analytics: To understand how visitors interact with our site, improve content, and measure the effectiveness of our gaming and tech news articles.
  • Personalization: To remember your preferences and provide a tailored experience, such as recommended articles based on your interests.
  • Advertising: To display relevant ads, including those served by third-party networks like Google AdSense, based on your browsing history and interests.
  • Security: To detect and prevent fraudulent activity or abuse.

We do not use cookies to collect personally identifiable information without your consent, except as necessary for the purposes described here.

Types of Cookies We Use

We categorize cookies based on their purpose and origin. Below is a detailed list of the cookies used on our website:

1. Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the website to function properly and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions made by you, such as setting privacy preferences or filling out forms.

  • Examples:
    • Session cookies for maintaining user sessions.
    • Cookies for remembering login status (if applicable).

Without these cookies, some parts of the site may not work correctly.

2. Performance and Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us analyze how visitors use the website, including which pages are visited most often and if error messages are received. This data is aggregated and anonymous, allowing us to improve site speed, content relevance (e.g., gaming reviews or tech updates), and overall performance.

  • Examples:
    • Google Analytics cookies (_ga, _gid, _gat): Used to collect information about traffic sources, user behavior, and site interactions. Google Analytics helps us understand audience engagement with our daily news posts.

Data collected is used solely for statistical purposes and is not shared with third parties except in aggregated form.

3. Functional Cookies

These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalization, such as remembering your language preferences or article viewing history.

  • Examples:
    • Cookies for user preferences, like theme settings or content filters for gaming vs. tech news.

4. Advertising and Targeting Cookies

These cookies are used to deliver advertisements more relevant to you and your interests. They may also limit the number of times you see an ad and measure ad campaign effectiveness. Third-party advertisers, including Google AdSense, place these cookies.

  • Examples:
    • Google AdSense cookies (e.g., _gads, DSID, IDE): Used by Google to serve personalized ads based on your previous visits to our site and other websites. This includes interest-based advertising related to gaming and tech topics.
    • Other third-party cookies from ad networks for retargeting and behavioral advertising.

Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on our site. Google's use of the DoubleClick DART cookie enables it to serve ads based on users' visits to our site and other sites on the internet. Users may opt out of the use of the DART cookie by visiting the Google ad and content network privacy policy at https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads.

We partner with Google AdSense to monetize our content through advertising. For more information on how Google uses data when you use our site, please visit https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

Third-Party Cookies

In addition to our own cookies, we allow third parties to set cookies on our website. These include:

  • Analytics Providers: Such as Google Analytics, to track site usage.
  • Advertising Networks: Such as Google AdSense, to display ads.
  • Social Media Plugins: If embedded (e.g., for sharing gaming news on platforms like Twitter or Facebook), these may set cookies to enable features like sharing buttons.
  • Content Delivery Networks (CDNs): To optimize loading times for images and videos in our tech articles.

These third parties may collect information about your online activities over time and across different websites. We do not control these third-party cookies, and their use is governed by their own privacy policies. We recommend reviewing those policies for more details.
