Cookie Policy

Welcome! This page explains how The Metabolic Female uses cookies and similar tools on our website. We want to keep things simple and transparent, just like having a chat with a smart friend.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that get placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember you, like making your browsing smoother or customising preferences.

2. Why we use cookies

We use cookies for a few key purposes:

Essential cookies: Needed for basic functionality, like navigating securely or remembering that you’ve accepted cookies.
Performance & analytics cookies: These help us understand how people use our site (e.g. which pages you visit most). We use tools like Google Analytics, but any personal data is anonymised.
Functional cookies: These remember your preferences (for example, language or scroll position) to enhance your experience.

3. Your consent and managing cookies

When you first visited our site, you likely saw a cookie banner asking for your consent to use non-essential cookies. You can withdraw or change your consent at any time. Here’s how:

Use the cookie settings in our banner or pop-up if available.
Or adjust directly in your browser settings to block or delete cookies.

If you do block some cookies, parts of the site might not work as intended, but core features will still run smoothly.

4 .Third-party cookies

We may integrate external tools, like social media features, video players, or analytics services. Those providers might set their own cookies. We don’t control these, so you’ll need to check their respective privacy or cookie policies:
