Cookie Policy

Last updated: August 12, 2025

This Cookie Policy explains how Meticulous B-Plans (“MBP”, “we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on meticulousbplans.com and any sub-pages that link to this notice. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

By clicking “Accept” on our cookie banner, or by continuing to browse, you agree that we can store and access cookies as described here. You can withdraw consent at any time via Cookie Settings (see below).

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website to remember information about you—such as your preferences—or to help the site function securely and efficiently. We also use related technologies (e.g., pixels, local storage) and refer to them collectively as “cookies”.

How we use cookies

We use cookies for the following purposes:

  1. Strictly Necessary (Essential)
    Required for the site to function (security, load balancing, session management, cookie consent). These cannot be switched off.

  2. Preferences (Functionality)
    Remember choices you make (e.g., language, city, industry filters) and improve your experience.

  3. Analytics (Performance)
    Help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve content and usability (aggregated, non-identifying metrics).

  4. Marketing & Social Media (Optional)
    Measure campaign performance and support embedded services (e.g., YouTube video embeds, social sharing). These may be set by third parties.

Note: The live cookie banner on our site lists the current cookies, providers, and retention periods. That list is authoritative and may change as we update features.

Cookies we may set (examples)

  • mbp_session / PHPSESSID (Essential): Maintains a secure session while you browse. Expires: session

  • cookie_consent, cookie_preferences (Essential): Records your consent choices. Expires: up to 12 months

  • wp_* (Essential/Functional): WordPress core cookies that remember login status and admin/customizer settings. Expires: session–12 months

  • elementor (Functional): Stores page builder preferences to render pages correctly. Expires: persistent

  • yt_* / youtube-nocookie (Marketing/Media): Set when you play embedded videos; used by YouTube. Expires: varies by Google

Exact names and lifetimes can vary. Please check Cookie Settings on the site for the up-to-date list.

Google Analytics (Analytics)

We use Google Analytics to collect anonymized statistics (e.g., pages visited, time on page, device type). Where supported, we enable measures such as IP masking to reduce identifiability.

  • Provider: Google LLC
  • Data: Usage data, cookie identifiers
  • Use: Generate aggregated reports to improve our website
  • Opt-out: You can disable Analytics via our Cookie Settings or use Google’s add-on: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
  • Privacy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

Managing cookies: your choices

2) Browser controls

You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Useful guides:

3) Do Not Track

Our site currently does not respond to DNT signals. You can still manage cookies via Cookie Settings and your browser.

Third-party cookies & embeds

Some features rely on third parties (e.g., YouTube embeds, social share buttons, payment or email providers). These providers may set their own cookies and have their own privacy/cookie policies. We do not control how third-party cookies operate—please refer to their documentation.

Data retention

Cookie lifetimes vary:

  • Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser.

  • Persistent cookies remain until their set expiry or until you delete them.
