Last updated: 6 October 2026
This policy explains how winesilkroad.com uses cookies and similar technologies.
1. No tracking cookies
Our site does not use advertising, marketing, profiling or analytics cookies, and it does not set any HTTP cookies. It only uses the local storage of your browser to remember a few technical settings that the site needs to work. We use Plausible Analytics to understand how the site is used; it does not set any cookies and does not track you across websites. This information stays on your device, is not sent to us and is not used to track you. Because these settings are strictly necessary, they do not require your consent.
