Cookie Policy
Welcome to BottleneckCalculator.us.com. This Cookie Policy is designed to clearly explain how and why we use cookies when you visit our website. We believe in transparency, so this page outlines what cookies are, how they improve your browsing experience, what types we use, and how you can control them.
By continuing to use our website, you agree to the use of cookies as described in this policy. If you do not agree, you can adjust your browser settings or decline cookies altogether — but please note, doing so might impact how our site functions for you.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device (computer, tablet, or phone) when you visit. These files help websites remember useful information about you — like your language settings, login status, or preferences — so your future visits are smoother and more personalized.
Think of cookies as digital “memory notes” that websites use to improve performance and deliver a more tailored user experience. Most cookies do not collect personal information and cannot harm your device.

- Analyzing site traffic: Understanding how visitors interact with our pages and tools to improve usability.
- Delivering relevant content: Showing you information and recommendations that match your interests.
- Maintaining security: Protecting accounts and detecting suspicious activities.
Types of Cookies We Use
We use a combination of first-party and third-party cookies, each serving a different purpose. Below is a breakdown of the types you might encounter on our website:
a) Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website to function correctly. They allow you to navigate pages, access secure areas, and use key features like our bottleneck calculator. Without these cookies, the site may not work as expected.
b) Functional Cookies
Functional cookies remember choices you make (like language, theme, or settings) and provide enhanced, more personalized features. They improve the way our site behaves and feels for returning visitors.
c) Performance & Analytics Cookies
These cookies collect anonymous data about how users interact with our website — which pages are visited most, how long people stay, and how tools are used. We analyze this data to improve design, speed, and overall user experience.
d) Advertising & Targeting Cookies
With your permission, we may use cookies to deliver ads that are more relevant to you. These cookies track browsing habits and help us display personalized advertisements or product recommendations, either on our site or across other platforms.
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on our website are placed by third parties — companies we work with to provide analytics, advertising, or additional services. Examples include:
- Analytics tools (like Google Analytics) to track site usage and improve functionality.
- Ad networks that display targeted advertising based on your interests.
- Social media platforms that allow content sharing or engagement.
We do not control how third parties use cookies. We encourage you to review their own cookie policies for more details about how your information is handled.
Cookie Duration: Session vs. Persistent
Cookies can either be temporary or long-term:
- Session Cookies: These exist only during your browsing session and are deleted when you close your browser. They are often used for login sessions or temporary preferences.
- Persistent Cookies: These remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them manually. They remember things like login details and site preferences between visits.
