Cookie Policy

Last updated: July 2026

This page explains what cookies this site uses, why, and how you can control them.

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files a site stores in your browser to remember information, such as whether you've made a choice on a previous visit.

What We Use Cookies For

This site uses cookies for one purpose: basic traffic analytics through Google Analytics, so we can see roughly how many people visit and which pages are most useful. We don't use cookies for advertising, and we don't sell any information collected this way.

We also store a small note in your browser (not a third-party cookie) to remember whether you've accepted or declined analytics cookies, so we don't ask you again on every visit.

Your Choice

When you first visit this site, you'll see a banner asking whether to allow analytics cookies. If you decline, Google Analytics never loads on your browser. You can change your mind at any time by clearing your browser's site data for bluestarcigars.org, which will bring the banner back on your next visit.

Third-Party Cookies

If you accept analytics cookies, Google Analytics may set cookies on your browser as described in Google's Cookie Policy.

More Information

See our Privacy Policy for more on how we handle information generally. Questions can be directed to Jim Rice at 212-858-0832 or jrice@bluestarcigars.org.
