Cookies and analytics preferences

WinMedia uses Google Analytics 4 (GA4) automatically when site analytics is enabled. You can turn it off for this browser at any time.

Automatic analytics and saved preferences

When site analytics is enabled, GA4 starts automatically unless you have rejected analytics in this browser. Existing saved rejections continue to keep it off. You can open Analytics preferences to change your choice.

When analytics is on

The site loads GA4 for the winmedia.com web stream. GA4 can set analytics cookies, including cookies whose names begin with _ga. WinMedia uses it to measure page visits and selected interactions, such as outbound link clicks. Advertising personalization and Google Signals are disabled in the site configuration.

Campaign measurement

While analytics is on, WinMedia can remember an approved campaign and link placement in this tab’s session storage for up to 30 minutes. These codes help us understand which published links bring readers to our books. Recording those codes with an eBook order also requires a saved “Allow analytics” choice in this browser. Customer email, payment details, and download credentials are not included in campaign events sent to Google Analytics.

Rejecting or withdrawing analytics clears these temporary browser codes. Codes already recorded with a completed order remain with that order.

Your choice and how to change it

Your allow or reject choice is stored in this browser’s local storage under winmedia.analytics-consent.v1. It remains there until you change it or clear browser storage. Use “Analytics preferences” in the site footer or the button below to open settings. Turning off active analytics removes accessible GA4 cookies and reloads the page to stop the loaded script. Clearing browser storage removes your saved choice, including an opt-out, and restores automatic analytics when site analytics is enabled.
