At Skene.pub, we use cookies to enhance your browsing experience, analyze traffic, and support content that inspires theatre artists, educators, and audiences around the world. This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies and your options for managing them.


1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help remember your preferences, track site usage, and deliver personalized content.

2. Types of Cookies We Use
2.1 Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the site to function properly and cannot be switched off. They enable basic features like page navigation and secure access to certain areas.

2.2 Analytics Cookies

We use Google Analytics (via Site Kit by Google) to understand how visitors interact with our site — which pages are popular, where users come from, and how long they stay. These cookies are anonymized unless you’ve given consent to full tracking.

2.3 Functionality Cookies

Used to remember your preferences (e.g., dark mode, language selection) and support features like comment sections.

2.4 Embedded Content Cookies

Some articles may include embedded media (like YouTube videos, Spotify playlists, or social feeds). These services may place their own cookies to function properly or track user interactions.

2.5 Affiliate Cookies

We participate in affiliate marketing programs like Amazon Associates. Clicking on an affiliate link may result in a cookie being set to track purchases for commission purposes — at no extra cost to you.

2.6 Marketing Cookies (upcoming)

In the future, we may use cookies to deliver personalized ads through networks like Google AdSense. These would require explicit consent.


3. How We Manage Consent

We use a Consent Management Platform (CMP) via Complianz. When you first visit Skene.pub, you’ll see a cookie banner that allows you to:

  • Accept or deny non-essential cookies
  • View or change your preferences anytime
  • Learn more about the specific cookies used

Our cookie settings are compliant with GDPR, CCPA, and other relevant data regulations.


4. How to Control Cookies

You can manage your cookie preferences in two ways:

  • Via the Cookie Banner: Adjust your choices using the banner or the cookie settings button in the footer.

  • Via Browser Settings: You can delete or block cookies through your browser’s privacy settings.

Please note that disabling cookies may affect your ability to use certain features on our site.


5. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy occasionally to reflect changes in technology, legal requirements, or our services. When we do, we’ll update the “Revised on” date at the top of this page.
