1. What are cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help a site remember information about your visit, such as preferences or session state, and are used across most modern websites in some form.
2. How we use cookies
None of the diagnostic tools on this site require cookies to function, all controller readings are handled through browser memory rather than stored client side. Where cookies are used, it is for basic site functionality, understanding aggregate traffic patterns, and, on pages with affiliate links, tracking whether a purchase was referred from this site.
3. Types of cookies on this site
| Category | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Required for core site functionality, such as remembering that you have dismissed a notice. These cannot be disabled without affecting how the site works. |
| Analytics | Help us understand which pages and tools are used most, so we can prioritize what to improve or build next. Typically anonymized or aggregated. |
| Affiliate and advertising | Set when you click an affiliate link on a review or guide page, used to attribute a purchase back to this site. Set by the retailer, not directly by us. |
4. Managing cookies
Most browsers let you view, delete, and block cookies through their settings menu. Blocking all cookies may affect how some parts of this site or linked third party sites behave, though every diagnostic tool on this site will continue to work normally since none of them depend on cookies.
5. Third party cookies
Some cookies on this site may be set by third party services we use, such as analytics providers or affiliate networks. Those providers control their own cookies according to their own privacy and cookie policies, which we encourage you to review separately.
6. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the cookies and tools used on this site change. The date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.
