Cookie Policy
Last updated: June 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how StressScore ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit stresscheckup.com. Please read this policy carefully to understand what cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can manage your cookie preferences.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide basic analytics about how visitors use a site. Cookies do not contain personal information such as your name, email address, or payment details — they typically contain a reference code that allows a server to recognise a previously-seen browser.
How StressScore Uses Cookies
StressScore uses a minimal number of cookies necessary for the site to function and to understand how it is being used. We do not use cookies to identify you personally, and your assessment responses are never stored in cookies. Our cookie use falls into three categories: essential cookies (required for the site to function), analytics cookies (to understand aggregate usage), and advertising cookies (from third-party ad networks including Google AdSense).
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are necessary for the basic operation of the website. They enable functions such as navigation between pages and ensure the site displays correctly. These cookies cannot be disabled without significantly affecting site functionality. They do not collect personal information and are not used for advertising purposes.
Analytics Cookies
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our site in aggregate — which pages are most visited, how long visitors stay, and how they navigate through the content. This information helps us improve the site for all users. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect this data, but the information collected is aggregated and anonymised — we cannot use it to identify you as an individual. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Advertising Cookies
StressScore displays advertisements through Google AdSense to support the continued operation of the site. Google AdSense uses cookies to serve advertisements that may be personalised based on your browsing history across websites. These cookies are set by Google, not StressScore, and are governed by Google's Privacy Policy. You can manage your ad personalisation settings at adssettings.google.com or opt out of interest-based advertising at www.aboutads.info/choices (US) or www.youronlinechoices.eu (EU).
Third-Party Cookies
In addition to Google services, our site may load third-party resources (such as fonts from Google Fonts) that set their own cookies. We have no control over the cookies set by third-party services, and you should review their respective privacy and cookie policies for information about how they use cookies.
Managing and Disabling Cookies
You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, block, and delete cookies. Please note that disabling all cookies may affect the functionality of this and other websites. Instructions for managing cookies in common browsers can be found at: Chrome: support.google.com/chrome/answer/95647, Firefox: support.mozilla.org/kb/cookies, Safari: support.apple.com/guide/safari/sfri11471, Edge: support.microsoft.com/microsoft-edge.
Cookie Consent
By continuing to use StressScore, you acknowledge our use of cookies as described in this policy. If you do not agree to our use of cookies, you should adjust your browser settings or discontinue use of the site. As we continue to develop the site, we may implement a cookie consent banner to give you more granular control.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies.
