Cookie Policy
Last updated: April 2026
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar storage technologies we use on bedbugsfix.com, why we use them, and how you can manage your choices. It complements our Privacy Policy.
1. What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your device when you visit it. Cookies are widely used to make websites work, work more efficiently, or to provide reporting information. We also use similar technologies such as localStorage (to remember your cookie choices on this device) and pixel tags.
2. Your control
When you first visit the site you see a banner asking for your consent. No non-essential cookies are set until you give consent. You can change your choices at any time:
- Click Cookie settings in the footer or here.
- Or clear cookies and localStorage in your browser to be asked again on your next visit.
- Most browsers also let you block cookies entirely in their privacy settings.
Withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it.
3. Categories we use
We classify cookies into the four categories below. The full list as of the "Last updated" date is in the table that follows.
Strictly necessary Always on
Required for the site to function: remembering your cookie choice, basic security, page navigation. The site cannot work without these. They do not require your consent under EU/UK law.
Preferences Optional
Remember small choices you make on the site (e.g. language, layout) so you don't have to make them again.
Analytics Optional · consent
Help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. We try to use privacy-friendly providers and we never link analytics back to your name or address.
Marketing Optional · consent

5. Third parties
Some cookies are set by third parties acting as our processors (analytics, payment processing, hosting). They are bound by Data Processing Agreements that limit them to processing the data on our behalf. Each provider also has its own privacy policy:
- Google — policies.google.com/privacy
- Meta / Facebook — facebook.com/privacy/policy
- Stripe — stripe.com/privacy
- PayPal — paypal.com/privacy
- Cloudflare — cloudflare.com/privacypolicy
6. Do Not Track / Global Privacy Control
If your browser sends a "Do Not Track" or Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, we treat it as a request to opt out of analytics and marketing cookies, in addition to any choice you made through the banner.
7. Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when we add or remove tools. We will refresh the "Last updated" date and, if your previous consent no longer covers the new setup, ask you again through the banner.
