Cookies are small text files stored in your browser when you visit a website. This page explains which cookies Hire an Expert Hub uses, why we use them, and how you can control them. We keep it minimal — only what’s needed to run the site and know it’s working.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are tiny files placed on your device by websites you visit. They help sites remember your preferences, understand how visitors use their pages, and — in the case of affiliate links — credit a referral when a purchase is made. Cookies cannot run programs or deliver viruses to your device.
Cookies set by this Site are “first-party cookies.” Cookies set by other companies whose services we use or link to are “third-party cookies.”
Cookies We Use
Essential cookies. WordPress, the software this Site runs on, may set cookies needed for basic functionality — for example, remembering your details if you leave a comment. These do not track you across other websites.
Analytics cookies. We may use analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) to understand which articles are useful, how visitors find us, and how the Site performs. This data is aggregated and does not identify you personally.
Affiliate tracking cookies. When you click an affiliate link on this Site — for example, a link to a professional on Fiverr — the destination platform sets a cookie in your browser. This cookie tells the platform that you arrived through our referral, so a commission can be credited if you make a purchase. These cookies are created and controlled entirely by the third-party platform, under their own cookie and privacy policies.
How Long Do Cookies Last?
Session cookies are deleted automatically when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain for a set period — from a few days to several months — depending on the cookie. Affiliate cookies typically last around 30 days, meaning a purchase within that window after clicking our link may still be credited as a referral.
How to Control Cookies
You are always in control. Every modern browser lets you view, block, and delete cookies:
Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Third-party cookies
Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions
You can also browse in private/incognito mode, which deletes cookies when the window closes, or use browser extensions that manage tracking.
Please note: blocking all cookies may affect how some parts of this Site and the third-party platforms we link to work — for example, comment forms or shopping carts on marketplace sites.
