Cookie Policy
Last updated: 29 July 2026
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies Thornton Review uses on lifeaipowerei.world, and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website when you visit it. They are widely used to make websites function correctly, improve efficiency, and provide information to the website owner. Cookies can be "session" cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent" cookies (remaining on your device for a set period or until you delete them). First-party cookies are set by us; third-party cookies are set by other organisations whose services appear on our Site.
2. How We Use Cookies
We implement Google Consent Mode v2. By default, all non-essential consent signals are set to DENIED (including ad_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization, and analytics_storage) until you make an active choice. Functionality and security cookies are granted by default as they are strictly necessary.
3. Categories of Cookies We Use

4. Google Consent Mode v2
We use Google Consent Mode v2 to ensure that Google's measurement and advertising tools respect your consent choices. When you decline non-essential cookies, Google operates in a cookieless mode: it may use modelling techniques to fill gaps in measurement data, but does not set identifiable cookies or read device storage for advertising purposes. The consent signals we send to Google are:
ad_storage- controls storage of advertising cookies.ad_user_data- controls whether user data may be sent to Google for advertising purposes.ad_personalization- controls personalised advertising.analytics_storage- controls storage of analytics cookies.
All four signals default to denied and are updated to granted only upon explicit acceptance.
5. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You may update your preferences at any time using the following methods:
- Our cookie banner - appears on your first visit. Click "Manage Preferences" to revisit choices.

Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of cookie use prior to withdrawal.
