Policy version: 1.0 · Last updated: 12 October 2026.
This policy explains the cookies and similar technologies used on Chimundo (chimundo.com), owned and operated by Kahunam Ltd. It covers their purpose, duration and how you can manage them. Read it alongside our Privacy Policy.
Definition
A cookie is a small text file stored by your browser when you visit a website. Cookies can remember your choices, support a sign-in or help measure visits. Scripts and other technologies can also access information on your device.
Policy
We store a necessary cookie when you save your cookie choice. Google Analytics and its cookies remain off until you explicitly accept Analytics. The banner offers Accept analytics, Reject optional and Manage choices. You can read the website whichever option you choose.
Use Cookie settings here or in the footer at any time. To withdraw consent, choose Reject optional or switch Analytics off and save. Withdrawal removes Analytics cookies this site can access and reloads the page to stop the Google script. It does not automatically delete previously collected data.
Cookie schedule
| Type | Purpose and choice |
|---|---|
| Necessary | Remember your consent choices and support requested WordPress sign-in and administration functions. These do not require optional Analytics consent. |
| Analytics — optional | Understand consented browser visits and page use. Disabled by default. |
| Comment preferences — optional | Where comments are available, a separate save-details checkbox lets WordPress remember your name, email address and website for next time. |

Cookie list: Analytics — non-essential
These first-party cookies are set by Google Analytics only after consent. Our configured duration is shorter than Google’s default. Google describes their function in its Analytics cookie documentation.
| Cookie | Provider / domain | Duration | Purpose and management |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics / chimundo.com | 180 days, renewed on accepted visits | Distinguishes browsers for visit measurement. Withdraw via Cookie settings or remove in browser settings. |
| _ga_958LFZC575 | Google Analytics property G-958LFZC575 / chimundo.com | 180 days, renewed on accepted visits | Stores session state for this website’s property. Withdraw via Cookie settings or remove in browser settings. |
Advertising personalisation and Google signals are disabled. This integration does not load Meta Pixel or advertising tags. It omits site-search terms, URL query strings and form contents. Analytics user/event retention is two months, separate from the lifespan of cookies stored in your browser; aggregated reports can last longer.
Cookie list: comment preferences
| Cookie | When used | Duration | Purpose and management |
|---|---|---|---|
| comment_author_*, comment_author_email_*, comment_author_url_* | WordPress / chimundo.com; only if you select the save-details checkbox when commenting | Normally one year | Remember the details you enter for future comments. Leave the checkbox unticked to avoid these cookies, or clear them in your browser. The Analytics preference does not control them. |
Third-party and embedded content
Following an external link takes you to another service with its own policies. Embedded media and avatar services may receive technical information when they load. Their processing is separate from our Google Analytics controls; consult the relevant provider’s privacy notice. Our Privacy Policy describes the third-party services relevant to this site.
Managing cookies in your browser
Your browser can show, block or delete cookies. Consult its privacy settings or help pages. Removing the consent cookie makes this website ask for your choice again. Blocking authentication cookies may affect sign-in; rejecting Analytics does not prevent you reading articles. For general guidance, see AboutCookies.org.
Changes and contact
We will update this policy and the date above when our use of cookies changes. Where necessary, we will ask for a fresh choice before enabling new optional processing. For questions about cookies or your information, use Kahunam’s contact form and mention Chimundo.
