1. What technologies we use
We use the following categories of cookies and storage:
- Strictly necessary — required for core site functions, including remembering that you confirmed you are 21+ via our age-verification gate.
- Functional — helps remember choices that improve your browsing experience.
- Analytics — helps us understand traffic patterns, popular pages, and how visitors navigate the site so we can improve content and performance.
2. Strictly necessary cookies
These are essential for the website to operate properly. Without them, certain features — such as the age-verification screen — may not work as intended.
- newvine-age-verified (local storage) — stores your confirmation that you are 21 or older so the age gate is not shown on every visit. Duration: until you clear browser storage.
- Session and security-related cookies — may be set by our hosting or framework to deliver pages reliably and protect against abuse.
We may use privacy-conscious analytics tools to measure visits, page views, referral sources, and general device or browser information. This data is aggregated and used to improve the website. We do not use analytics cookies to sell your personal information.
Some embedded content, fonts, images, or outbound links may cause third-party services to set their own cookies when you interact with them. For example, opening WhatsApp, Telegram, or an external image host may be governed by that provider’s cookie policy, not ours.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers let you block, delete, or limit cookies. Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies or clearing local storage may cause the age-verification prompt to appear again or affect how some features work.

Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” setting. There is no uniform industry standard for responding to these signals, so our website may not change behaviour based on DNT alone. You can still manage cookies directly in your browser.
7. Updates to this policy
We may revise this Cookie Policy when our website, tools, or legal requirements change. Check the “Last updated” date above for the latest version.
