Cookie Policy

This page explains, in plain language, how shanemechelturrell.com (operated by ShaneTurrell SEO Traffic, referred to here as “we”, “us”, or “the agency”) uses cookies and similar browser storage when you visit our site to read about our SEO, PPC, and content marketing services. If any part of this policy is unclear, get in touch and we'll explain it in plain English.

What a cookie actually is

A cookie is a small text file that your browser stores on your device when you visit a website. It doesn't let us reach into your computer and grab files, and on its own it can't identify you by name — but it can remember things like whether you've seen a particular banner before, which pages you looked at, and roughly where in the world your visit came from.

Why we use them

We keep our use of cookies deliberately limited. On this site, cookies are set for three broad reasons:

• Keeping the site working properly. A handful of cookies remember basic settings — for example, that you've already dismissed a notice — so you're not shown the same message on every page.
• Understanding how our case studies and service pages perform. We use analytics-style cookies to see, in aggregate, which pages get read, which case studies get the most attention, and where visitors tend to drop off before contacting us. This helps us improve the site rather than track any one person.
• Third-party embeds and outbound links. Where we link out to, or embed content from, third-party platforms (for example a client testimonial video or a social share button), that third party may set its own cookies once you interact with it. We don't control those cookies — see the section below.

Third-party analytics and tools

Like most agencies that need to prove their own results, we monitor traffic to this site using third-party web analytics tools. These providers may place their own cookies to measure things such as visit duration, referral source, and device type. That data is aggregated and used to improve the site's content and layout — it is not sold, and we don't use it to build advertising profiles of individual visitors.

If our contact forms or booking tools are provided through a third-party platform, that platform's own cookie and privacy practices will apply to your interaction with the form, separate from this policy.

Managing or disabling cookies

Every modern browser lets you view, block, or delete cookies through its settings menu. If you'd rather browse without them, you're free to disable cookies at any time; a small number of convenience features on this site (such as remembering a dismissed banner) simply won't persist between visits as a result. Disabling cookies will not stop the site from loading or prevent you from reading our content or contacting us.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy occasionally as our tools or practices change. The version published on this page is always the current one, and continuing to use the site after an update means you accept the revised policy. If you have questions about how we use cookies, contact us through the details on our About Us page.
