LEGAL DISCLOSURES

How Jetpack Cookies Work

Effective 2/23/2025

Part of the legal disclosures is making sure our visitors understand how our cookie policy works. We use WordPress JetPack Cookies. Below we broke into segments on how they work. 

Cookies are small pieces of data, stored in text files, that are stored on your computer or device when websites are loaded in a browser. They are widely used to ‘remember’ you and your preferences, either for a single visit (through a ’session cookie’) or for multiple repeat visits (using a ‘persistent cookie’).

Cookies ensure a consistent and efficient experience for visitors, and perform essential functions such as allowing users to register and remain logged in. Cookies may be set by the site that you are visiting (known as ‘first party cookies’), or by third parties, such as those who serve content or provide advertising or analytics services on the website (‘third party cookies’).

Both websites and HTML e-mails may also contain other tracking technologies such as ‘web beacons’, or ‘pixels’. These are typically small transparent images that provide us with statistics, for similar purposes as cookies. They are often used in conjunction with cookies, though they are not stored on your computer in the same way. As a result, if you disable cookies, the web beacons may still load, but their functionality will be restricted.

Jetpack uses cookies in a variety of ways, depending on the specific features that are enabled on a site. We only set cookies when a user interacts with one of these features, or to perform admin functions from the site’s dashboard (/wp-admin).

Check out the following tables for further details, including the various cookies that are set for registered Jetpack plugin users. For information on the cookies set by Jetpack.com, or for visitors to Jetpack-connected sites, please see the cookie policy at automattic.com/cookies.

jetpackState[deactivated_plugins]sessionStores the names of any standalone plugins that needed to be deactivated by Jetpack so that these can be communicated back to the user.

Some Jetpack features make use of third-party applications and services to enhance the experience of visitors. These include social media platforms, such as Facebook and Twitter (via our Sharing feature). As a result, cookies may be set by these third parties, and used by them to track your online activity. We have no direct control over or access to the information that is collected by these cookies. Please consult the individual privacy policies of any such services for more information.

Website owners may also be using different plugins or other third-party services that set and use cookies. If you are a site owner, you may wish to make your visitors aware of such tracking using our Cookies & Consents Widget. If you are a site visitor, you may need to consult the site owner regarding these types of cookies.

Most browsers provide for ways to control cookie behavior such as the length of time they are stored – either through built-in functionality or by utilizing third party plugins. If you disable cookies, please be aware that some of the features of our service may not function correctly.
