What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files that a website asks your browser to store on your device. They are widely used to make websites work, to remember preferences and to understand how visitors use a site. Related technologies, such as local storage and small tracking pixels, can serve similar purposes and are covered by this cookie policy where they are used.
This cookie policy explains how Zenith Compass uses cookies on zenithcompass.com, and how you can control them. It should be read with our Privacy Policy.
How We Use Cookies
We aim to use as few cookies as the Website reasonably requires. Cookies on this Website fall into the following categories:
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the Website to function and for security — for example, to load pages correctly, protect forms against misuse and remember your cookie consent choice. The Website cannot work properly without them, and they do not require your consent. They do not collect information for marketing.
Functional and Preference Cookies
These cookies remember choices you make, such as display preferences, so that the Website works in the way you expect on return visits. If you disable these cookies, some features may not work as intended.
Analytics and Performance Cookies
With your consent, where required, we may use analytics cookies to understand — in aggregate — how readers find and use the Website: which articles are read, how visitors move between pages, and where technical problems occur. This helps us improve content and performance. Analytics information is used in summary form and is not used to profile individual readers for advertising on this Website.
Advertising and Third-Party Cookies
We currently do not use third-party advertising services on the Website, and we do not set advertising cookies. The Website does not embed third-party videos, social media feeds or maps that set marketing cookies. If we introduce advertising or embedded third-party services in future, we will update this policy and list the providers here, and we recommend checking the privacy and cookie policies of any third-party service you interact with through the Website.
Cookies in Use
The Website runs on WordPress. The cookies that can be set are the standard WordPress cookies listed below. Most of them apply only to our logged-in editorial team and to visitors who leave comments; ordinary readers will typically receive only essential session cookies.

Managing Your Cookie Choices
You can control cookies in several ways:
- Cookie banner or settings: Where a cookie consent tool is provided on the Website, you can accept, reject or adjust optional cookies there, and you can change your choice at any time by reopening the settings.
- Browser settings: Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through their settings or preferences. Guidance is available in your browser’s help pages. Blocking some cookies may affect how the Website works.
- Analytics opt-outs: Where a specific analytics provider offers its own opt-out mechanism, you may use that as well.
Please note that deleting cookies will remove preferences previously stored on your device, and the Website may ask for your cookie choice again on your next visit.

We may update this policy when the cookies we use change, or when legal requirements change. The current version will always be published on this page.
