Last Updated: February 11th 2026

Welcome to Fones Counter. This page explains what “cookies” are and how we use them. We believe in being open and honest about how our website works.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files. When you visit Fones Counter, your browser saves these files on your computer or phone.

Think of a cookie like a memory. It helps our website remember you. For example, it might remember which pages you read or if you have visited us before.

Cookies are not viruses. They cannot read your hard drive or see your personal files.

2. Why We Use Cookies

We use cookies to make Fones Counter better for you. Here is why:

To Make the Site Work: Some cookies are essential. They help pages load quickly and correctly on your screen.
To Count Visitors: We need to know which mobile reviews are popular. Cookies help us see if more people are reading about “US Mobile” or “Mint Mobile.”
To Show Ads: We use Google AdSense. Cookies help Google show you ads that are relevant to what you like.
To Pay Our Bills: We use affiliate links. If you buy a plan through our site, a cookie tells the company that we sent you. This is how we earn money to keep writing reviews.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We use different types of cookies for different jobs.

A. Essential Cookies

These are necessary. You cannot turn these off if you want the website to work properly. They help with security and basic functions.

B. Performance Cookies (Analytics)

We use tools like Google Analytics.

These cookies collect information anonymously.
They tell us how many people visit from the UK or the US.
They tell us which pages act slow or have errors.

C. Advertising Cookies (Google AdSense)

Google and its partners use cookies to show ads based on your previous visits to our site or other websites.
These help ensure you don’t see the same ad over and over again.

D. Affiliate Cookies

When you click a link to a mobile carrier (like Visible or EE), a cookie is placed on your device.
This cookie usually lasts for 30 to 60 days.
It does not collect your personal data. It only tracks that the click came from Fones Counter.

Google: For maps, analytics, and ads.
Social Media: If you share a post on Facebook or Twitter, they might use a cookie.
