This Cookie Policy explains how LLCBasics.com (“we”, “our”, or “us”) uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website. It explains what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control our use of them.
We know privacy policies and cookie notices can sound complicated, so we’ve made this one as simple and transparent as possible — because your trust means everything to us.
✅ What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small data files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet) when you visit a website. They’re stored in your web browser and help websites remember things about you — like your login status, the pages you visited, or your preferences (like language or location).
Cookies are not harmful. They cannot run programs or deliver viruses to your device. Instead, they help make your browsing experience more personalized and efficient.
There are different types of cookies, such as:
- First-party cookies: Set by the website you’re visiting (in this case, LLCBasics.com).
- Third-party cookies: Set by services we use to enhance the site (like Google Analytics or affiliate tracking tools).
- Session cookies: Temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies: Remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them.
🎯 Why We Use Cookies
We use cookies for several purposes, all focused on making your experience better and helping us improve our website content, structure, and performance. Here’s a breakdown:
1. Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the basic functionality of the website. They help with things like page navigation, access to secure areas, and loading speed. The site simply won’t work properly without them.
2. Analytics & Performance Cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the website. We use tools like Google Analytics to track things like:
- What pages are most visited
- How long do people stay on each page
- What device or browser is used
This data is anonymized and used strictly to improve our site content, layout, and user experience.
3. Functional Cookies
Functional cookies remember your preferences and settings — like the state you chose during LLC-related research — so you don’t have to enter the same information every time you visit.
4. Advertising & Affiliate Cookies
We may earn a commission when you click on an affiliate link (e.g., to an LLC formation service). These cookies help track the referral so our partners know who sent you. It doesn’t cost you anything extra and helps support the free educational content we provide.
These cookies may be set by third-party networks, and they may use them to deliver more relevant ads based on your activity across multiple websites.
🛠️ How to Manage or Disable Cookies
