How TerraLenses uses cookies

Last updated: 23 April 2026

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser. They remember preferences between visits, track usage patterns, or enable third-party services like advertising. The GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive require EU-facing sites to disclose cookie usage and, in some cases, obtain consent before setting non-essential cookies.

Third-party advertising — Google AdSense

TerraLenses monetises through Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site or other sites. Personalised advertising uses behavioural data; non-personalised advertising uses only context (e.g., the content of the page).

You can review or opt out of Google's personalised advertising at any time:

How to manage cookies yourself

All major browsers let you view, delete, or block cookies. This usually takes a few minutes to set up and can be scoped to specific sites.

Disabling cookies will not prevent you from using TerraLenses — the site functions without any cookie storage. You may, however, see less-relevant advertising if you disable advertising cookies.

Consent and children

TerraLenses is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.

Where required by GDPR, EU-based visitors may see a consent notice before non-essential advertising cookies are set. Non-EU visitors see ads by default, subject to Google's standard advertising policies.

Changes to this policy

We may update this cookie policy to reflect changes in our practices or in applicable law. The "last updated" date at the top of the page will always reflect the most recent revision.
