This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies and similar technologies on JustOneMom.com. It works together with our Privacy Policy.
1) What are cookies (and similar tech)?
- Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser.
- Local Storage / Session Storage stores data in your browser similar to cookies.
- Pixels/Tags are small code snippets that help measure actions and performance.
We use these to keep the site secure and functional, remember preferences, and (with your consent where required) understand usage and improve content.
2) How we classify cookies
- Strictly Necessary – required for security, core functions (cannot be switched off).
- Performance/Analytics – help us understand traffic and improve the site.
- Functional – remember choices (e.g., language, TOC state).
- Advertising/Affiliates – measure outbound clicks to partners; some third parties may use them to deliver or measure ads.
Cookies may be first-party (set by us) or third-party (set by another domain), and session (deleted when you close the browser) or persistent (stays until it expires or you delete it).
3) Our legal basis & consent
- Strictly necessary cookies: legitimate interests (running a safe, usable website).
- All other cookies: your consent (GDPR/UK GDPR/ePrivacy).
You can give or withdraw consent at any time via Cookie Preferences (see Section 6).
For South Africa (POPIA), we collect only what is necessary for stated purposes and honor your rights to access, correction, objection, and deletion.
4) What we use cookies for
- Security & reliability (load balancing, fraud prevention).
- Basic site functions (comments, forms, remembering your choices).
- Analytics (e.g., Google Analytics 4) to understand what content helps readers.
- Email & forms (e.g., WPForms/MailerLite/Mailchimp) to manage sign-ups.
- Affiliate tracking (e.g., Amazon Associates, Awin, Impact) to attribute purchases when you click an outbound product link.
- Embedded content (e.g., YouTube, Instagram) which may set their own cookies when you interact with the embeds.
If you don’t use some of the services above, just remove their rows from the table below.
