What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored in your browser. They help websites remember things between visits. We also use similar technologies such as localStorage where appropriate.
Essential cookies
Required to make TopOrHop work. They store your anonymous session ID so you can return to your calculation, and remember technical state like theme. These cannot be disabled without breaking the site.
Consent preference storage
When you accept, reject or customize cookies, your choice is stored locally under fixworth.cookie-consent. This is how we know not to ask you again on every visit.
Analytics cookies
Optional. Help us understand which pages are useful so we can improve them. Only loaded if you accept analytics cookies.
Advertising cookies
Optional. If Google AdSense is enabled, advertising cookies and similar technologies may be used by Google and its partners to serve and measure ads. For users in the EEA, UK and Switzerland, AdSense should only be enabled through a Google-certified Consent Management Platform with IAB TCF integration where required by law.
Affiliate tracking
When you click a "View offer" link, the destination retailer may set its own cookies under its own policy in order to attribute the click for commission purposes. TopOrHop does not control these cookies.
Local storage
We use the browser's localStorage for non-cookie storage of your consent preference and (optionally) saved calculation IDs. No personally identifying information is stored there by default.
Price alert and account cookies
If price alerts or accounts are enabled in the future, additional cookies or tokens may be used to keep you signed in or to validate alert subscriptions. This policy will be updated when that happens.
Third-party cookies
| Provider | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|
| Google AdSense | Set by Google to serve and measure ads. May personalize unless you opt out. | Up to 24 months |
| Affiliate networks | Set by retailers when you click an offer link. Used to attribute commissions. | Varies (typically 7–30 days) |
Managing consent
- You can clear or block cookies in your browser settings at any time.
- For Google ads personalization, opt out at Google Ad Settings.
- For interest-based advertising more broadly, see Your Online Choices (EU) or DAA opt-out (US).
- Blocking essential cookies will prevent TopOrHop from saving your calculation.
Changing your preferences
You can revisit your choice by clearing the fixworth.cookie-consent entry from localStorage and reloading the page; the consent banner will reappear.
