Cookie Policy
Last updated: 27/07/2026
Straight to the point: Thailand Stories doesn't show any ads today, and doesn't install any advertising or social media cookies in your browser. We do use Google Analytics to understand, in aggregate, how many people visit the site and which stories they're most interested in.
Do we use cookies?
We use Google Analytics 4 to measure site visits and understand which content is most useful. This sets Google's own cookies (typically named things like _ga and _ga_XXXXXXX) that let us distinguish visits in an aggregated, anonymous way. We don't sell this data or combine it with advertising, and we don't use any other kind of third-party cookie: no advertising cookies, no social media cookies, no Facebook pixels or any other advertiser trackers on this site.
Your choice is respected from the start
Nothing is switched on by default. The first time you visit the site, a banner lets you Accept All, Reject All, or Customize your choice by category; until you choose, nothing from Google is requested or installed in your browser. You can change your choice at any time from this page.
Cookie categories
We group cookie-related choices into three categories:
- Necessary: remembers your cookie choice itself. Always active, and doesn't require consent since it's essential for the site to work.
- Analytics: powers Google Analytics, described below. Off by default.
- Advertising: would control ad personalization and measurement if we ever add ads. Off by default and currently unused — there are no ads on this site.
About Google Analytics
Google Analytics collects data like which pages you visit, how long you spend on the site, and roughly what country or device you're browsing from, always in aggregate. We don't use this information to identify you personally or to show you ads on other sites. Google processes this data under its own privacy policy.
Local browser storage
We use your browser's local storage, which is technically not a cookie, for two things: remembering that you've already seen a story (so we don't count your visit twice in the view counter) and remembering your cookie preferences. That data stays on your device, is never sent to any tracking server, and doesn't identify who you are.
Technical cookies
If we ever needed a strictly necessary cookie for basic site functionality in the future, we would add it to this page before turning it on. That kind of cookie doesn't require consent under current regulations, since it's essential for the site to work at all.
How to control cookies
You can configure your browser to block or delete any cookie at any time from its privacy or settings section. If you specifically want to stop Google Analytics from collecting your browsing data, you can install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
