Cookie policy

Last updated October 5, 2026

The short version

Moz Reviews uses Google Analytics cookies to count visits and see which pages are useful, plus one small cookie that records whether your region asks for consent first. In the EEA, the UK, Switzerland, Brazil, and Quebec, Google Analytics sets cookies only after you accept in the cookie banner. Elsewhere it's on by default, and you can turn it off at any time. We don't use advertising cookies.

Cookies we set

  • _ga, from Google Analytics: tells visits from the same browser apart, using a random ID. Lasts 2 years.
  • _ga_<ID>, from Google Analytics: keeps track of the current visit. Lasts 2 years.
  • consent-region, from this site: holds "opt-in" or "opt-out", worked out from the country your IP address points to, so we know whether to ask before analytics runs. It doesn't store the country or any ID. Lasts 1 day.

When analytics is off

Google Analytics runs in consent mode. It is off in the EEA, the UK, Switzerland, Brazil, and Quebec until you accept, and anywhere once you turn it off. While it's off, it sets no cookies and stores no ID on your device. Google may still receive a basic signal for each page view (the page address, the time, and browser details) with no cookie or ID attached.

Changing your choice

In the EEA, the UK, Switzerland, Brazil, and Quebec, the banner asks on your first visit. Wherever you are, you can turn analytics on or off at any time with Cookie settings at the bottom of every page. If you turn analytics off, we delete the Google Analytics cookies this site set. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings; the site works the same either way.

How we remember your choice

Your answer is saved in your browser's local storage as cookie-consent, not in a cookie, so we don't ask on every visit. It stays until you change it or clear this site's data. If you close the offer bar at the bottom of the screen on mobile, we note that in session storage (stickyCtaClosed) until you close the tab.

Global Privacy Control

If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as a refusal: analytics cookies stay off everywhere and the banner doesn't ask.

Cookies from sites we link to

When you click through to Moz, their site may set its own cookies, including one that credits us with the referral. Moz's cookie policy covers those, not this one. See our privacy policy for the rest of what this site collects.

Changes

We'll update this page if the cookies we use change, and revise the date at the top. Questions about cookies on this site: company.reviews.marketing@gmail.com.
