Cookie Policy
Last updated: August 17, 2026
This policy explains the cookies used on speaklocal.com and what each one is for. The list below is this site’s maintained cookie inventory, verified against what the site actually sets.
What a cookie is
A cookie is a small file a site stores in your browser. Some are needed for the site to work at all; others are optional and only set if you agree to them.
Your choices
You can change your mind at any time — use the cookie preferences control in the corner of any page. Rejecting optional cookies will not stop you using the site.
Strictly necessary
Required for the site to work. These are set whatever you choose.
| Cookie | Provider | Purpose | Retention | Party |

UserGuard | Stores the cookie choices you make on this site so we do not ask again on every visit. | 1 year | First party |
Analytics
These help us understand how the site is used so we can improve it. They are only set if you allow them — reject, and they are never written.

How this list is maintained
Three cookies are recorded. Google Analytics is loaded through Google Tag Manager, and neither one runs until you accept — the tag is held on the page until then, not merely asked to behave. We use no advertising or social-media trackers. Scripts, pixels and storage keys that are not cookies are excluded from this list. The site is rescanned regularly and this page is updated when the results change.
