Cookie Policy

Last updated: June 27, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how The F1 Formula, a brand operated by Total Ventures LLC (a Wyoming limited liability company), uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website. It describes what these technologies are, why we use them, and the choices you have. It applies to thef1formula.com, an independent site that is advertising- and affiliate-supported.

1. What Are Cookies and Similar Technologies

Cookies are small data files placed on your device when you visit a website. We also use related technologies such as local storage, pixels, and software development kits (SDKs). We refer to all of these collectively as "cookies." Cookies can be "session" cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent" cookies (which remain until they expire or you delete them), and they can be set by us ("first-party") or by a third party whose service we use ("third-party").

2. Why We Use Cookies

We use cookies for the purposes below. Where required by law, non-essential cookies are set only with your consent, which you can withdraw at any time.

Strictly Necessary

Required for the site to function — security, load balancing, remembering your consent choices, and access to protected areas. These cannot be switched off in our systems.

Performance & Analytics

Help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. This data is aggregated and used in a de-identified form.

Functional

Remember your preferences (such as language or display settings) to provide enhanced, more personal features.

Advertising

We display advertising (including Google AdSense) and use affiliate links to support our independent coverage. Advertising partners may set cookies to deliver and measure ads, including, where permitted and consented, interest-based ads. See our Advertising & Affiliate Disclosure and Privacy Policy for details.

3. Third-Party Cookies

We use cookies from the following providers, each governed by its own privacy policy:

Google Analytics — aggregated site traffic and usage measurement.
Google AdSense — advertising delivery and measurement. Manage ad personalization at Google Ad Settings.
Vercel Analytics — privacy-friendly performance measurement.

4. Your Choices and How to Manage Cookies

Depending on your state, the use of advertising cookies may be considered a "sale" or "sharing" of personal information. You can opt out using the controls below, and we honor the Global Privacy Control signal.

You can control cookies through:

Our consent banner — where shown, to accept or reject non-essential categories.
Your browser settings — most browsers let you block or delete cookies (Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security; Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security; Safari: Settings → Privacy; Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions). Blocking some cookies may affect how the site works.
Global Privacy Control (GPC) — we honor the GPC browser signal as a valid request to opt out of any "sale" or "sharing" of personal information where applicable law recognizes it.

5. Do Not Track

Some browsers send a "Do Not Track" signal. Because there is no common industry standard for how to respond, we do not currently respond to DNT signals; we do, however, honor the Global Privacy Control signal as described above.

6. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected here with a new "Last updated" date.
