How We Use Cookies

We use cookies on KnotToYarn.com for the following purposes:

Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the basic functionality of the Site. They enable core features such as page navigation, secure access to authenticated areas, and remembering your cookie consent preferences. Without these cookies, the Site cannot function properly.

We use Google Analytics to collect anonymous data about how visitors use our Site. This helps us understand which pages are most popular, how long visitors stay on the Site, and where they come from.

Our use of advertising cookies is governed by Google Consent Mode v2, which ensures your preferences are respected.

Functional Cookies

These cookies allow the Site to remember choices you make (such as dismissing a promotional banner or selecting a preferred display option) and provide enhanced, personalized features. For example, we use a cookie to remember when you have closed our promotional banner so it does not reappear for 7 days.
