Welcome to OpenlyX (accessible at openlyx.top), an English-language blog dedicated to exploring digital health platforms, telemedicine innovations, and health technology trends. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them on our blog, and how you can control your cookie preferences. By continuing to browse openlyx.top, you consent to our use of cookies as described in this policy.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They help the website remember your actions and preferences (such as language, font size, and other display preferences) over a period of time, so you don't have to re-enter them whenever you return to the site or browse from one page to another. Cookies also enable website owners to understand how visitors interact with their site, which helps improve the user experience.

Cookies can be "first-party" (set by the website you are visiting) or "third-party" (set by a domain other than the one you are visiting, such as advertising networks or analytics services).

2. Types of Cookies We Use

At OpenlyX, we use the following categories of cookies to ensure our blog functions properly, to analyze traffic, and to deliver relevant advertisements:

• Purpose: Enable basic site functions and security
• Duration: Session-based or persistent (typically up to 12 months)
• Examples: Cookie consent status, CSRF tokens

2.2 Analytics Cookies

We use analytics cookies (primarily from Google Analytics) to collect anonymous information about how visitors use our blog.

Data collected includes pages visited, time spent on the site, and browser/device information. These cookies do not identify you personally.

2.3 Advertising Cookies

OpenlyX participates in the Google AdSense program, which uses cookies to deliver personalized advertisements that are relevant to your interests. These third-party cookies are set by Google and its partners. They track your browsing activity across websites (including our blog) to build a profile of your interests and show you targeted ads. Advertising cookies also help measure the effectiveness of ad campaigns by counting clicks and conversions.

• Purpose: Personalize ads, limit ad frequency, measure ad performance
• Duration: Persistent (typically up to 13 months, per Google's policy)
• Examples: _gcl_au, IDE, test_cookie (Google AdSense & DoubleClick)
• Third parties: Google LLC, its advertising partners, and other ad networks we may work with

By using advertising cookies, we can support our blog financially while keeping content free for readers. You can learn more about how Google uses your data at Google's Partner Sites Policy.

3.2 Ad Personalization Opt-Out

If you prefer not to receive personalized ads from Google AdSense, you can opt out of ad personalization at any time:

• You can also download the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on to prevent analytics tracking.
• For broader control, you can visit the Digital Advertising Alliance's opt-out page to manage preferences from multiple ad networks.

Please note that opting out of personalized ads does not mean you will see fewer ads; it means the ads you see may be less relevant to your interests.

4. Third-Party Cookies and Ad Partners

In addition to Google AdSense, we may work with other third-party ad partners who use cookies to serve ads on our blog. These partners include ad networks and advertisers that help us monetize our content. Each partner has its own privacy and cookie policies. We encourage you to review their policies for more information. Currently, our primary ad partner is Google AdSense, which complies with the Google EU User Consent Policy and uses cookies for personalized advertising as described above.
