Last updated: August 19, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how SingingRangeTest.com uses cookies and similar technologies, including analytics-related storage, browser storage, and other technologies that may be used to operate and improve the website.

For broader information about personal data, service providers, retention, privacy rights, and microphone processing, please read our Privacy Policy.

1. What Are Cookies and Similar Technologies?

Cookies are small text files that websites can store on your device.

Websites may also use similar technologies, such as:

local storage;
session storage;
browser identifiers;
tags;
scripts;
pixels;
consent-preference storage.

These technologies can help a website function, remember choices, measure usage, or provide third-party services.

Not every technology used by a website is a cookie, so this policy uses the term cookies and similar technologies where appropriate.

2. Who We Are

SingingRangeTest.com is created and maintained by Sam Cooke.

Website: SingingRangeTest.com
Contact: support@singingrangetest.com

Questions about cookies or privacy can also be sent through our Contact Us page.

3. Our Current Cookie Setup

At the time of this policy’s latest update:

Google Analytics is active
Google AdSense is not currently active
affiliate tracking is not currently active
WordPress and related website systems may use necessary or functional technologies depending on their configuration

We aim to update this policy if our tracking, advertising, or website technologies change materially.

4. Strictly Necessary Technologies

Some cookies or similar technologies may be required for basic website functions.

Depending on the current site configuration, these may support:

security;
form handling;
session-related functionality;
administrative or technical operation;
remembering privacy or consent choices;
preventing abuse.

Strictly necessary technologies are used only where needed for core website operation.

Because WordPress plugins and website services can change over time, the exact technologies in this category may also change.

5. Google Analytics

SingingRangeTest.com currently uses Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the website.

Analytics can help us understand information such as:

which pages are visited;
how visitors move through the site;
which tools or sections are used;
device and browser patterns;
referral sources;
general interaction trends;
technical or usability problems.

Google Analytics may use first-party cookies or similar identifiers, including _ga-style identifiers depending on the site’s current Analytics configuration.

Google may also process technical information such as device, browser, network, approximate location, and interaction data according to its own services and privacy practices.

We primarily use Analytics reports to understand site usage and improve:

content;
navigation;
tool usability;
page performance;
technical reliability.

We do not describe Google Analytics data as completely anonymous because Analytics may process technical identifiers as part of the service.

You can learn more about Google’s handling of Analytics information through Google’s privacy information for its services.

6. Microphone-Based Tools and Cookies

Some SingingRangeTest.com tools use microphone access to analyse pitch or other voice-related input.

Cookies are not intentionally used to store raw microphone recordings.

However, depending on the implementation of an individual tool, Analytics may receive technical or result-related events such as:

a tool being started;
a tool being completed;
interaction events;
result-related values;
detected-note or range-related information;
error or performance events.

This can vary between tools.

For that reason, users should not assume that all voice-tool results are completely separate from analytics measurement.

For more information about microphone and result handling, see our Privacy Policy and Testing Methodology.

7. WordPress Forms and Functional Technologies

SingingRangeTest.com uses WordPress forms for contact and feedback.

Depending on the form plugin and security configuration, forms may use cookies, browser storage, session information, anti-spam technologies, or related technical identifiers.

These technologies may be used to:

submit forms correctly;
prevent spam;
maintain security;
preserve technical form state;
troubleshoot submission problems.

We aim to use only the technologies reasonably necessary for the form or security feature being provided.

8. Consent and Cookie Choices

Where applicable law requires consent before optional analytics or other non-essential technologies are used, users should be provided with an appropriate way to make that choice.

Depending on the site’s current consent setup and your location, available choices may include:

accepting optional technologies;
rejecting optional technologies;
choosing specific categories;
changing a previous choice;
withdrawing consent.

We do not treat continued browsing alone as valid consent where applicable law requires an affirmative choice.

If a consent-management system is implemented, it may store your privacy preferences so the website can remember them.

9. Managing Cookies in Your Browser

Most modern browsers allow you to:

view stored cookies;
delete cookies;
block some or all cookies;
restrict third-party cookies;
clear browser storage.

The exact controls depend on your browser and device.

Blocking optional cookies should not normally prevent access to core educational content, although some site functions, forms, analytics, or preference features may work differently.

10. Session and Persistent Cookies

Cookies can generally be divided into two broad types.

Session Cookies

Session cookies usually expire when the browser session ends.

They may be used for temporary website or form functionality.

Persistent Cookies

Persistent cookies remain on the device for a defined period or until they are manually removed.

Analytics, preferences, or consent settings may use persistent cookies depending on configuration.

The duration of a cookie depends on the provider and current site settings.

11. Current Analytics Cookies

Google Analytics may set first-party analytics cookies such as _ga and related identifiers.

Because cookie names, configurations, and retention settings can change, we do not guarantee that one fixed list will remain accurate indefinitely.

Where practical, the site’s consent or cookie-management system should reflect the technologies currently detected on the website.

A typical analytics entry may look like this:

Cookie / Technology	Provider	Category	Purpose
`_ga` or related identifier	Google Analytics	Analytics	Helps distinguish browser/client activity for site-usage measurement
Consent preference storage	Consent provider, if implemented	Necessary	Remembers cookie/privacy choices
Form or security storage	WordPress/form/security provider	Necessary or Functional	Supports forms, security, or anti-abuse functionality

Exact durations may depend on the current provider configuration.

12. Advertising Cookies

At the time of this policy’s latest update, SingingRangeTest.com does not currently use Google AdSense.

This means this policy does not currently describe active AdSense advertising cookies as part of the website’s live setup.

If display advertising is introduced later, technologies may be used for purposes such as:

ad delivery;
frequency control;
measurement;
fraud prevention;
personalization where permitted.

If that happens, we aim to update this Cookie Policy, our Privacy Policy, and our consent controls as appropriate.

13. Affiliate Tracking

SingingRangeTest.com does not currently use active affiliate-tracking technologies.

If affiliate relationships are introduced later, affiliate networks or merchants may use tracking parameters, cookies, or similar technologies to attribute referrals.

We will update this policy where appropriate if that setup changes.

14. Third-Party Technologies

Some website functionality may involve third-party technologies.

Current relevant providers may include:

Google Analytics for website measurement;
WordPress and form-related services for site and contact functionality;
security or technical providers depending on the website configuration.

The presence of a third-party service does not mean every service sets cookies on every visit.

Third-party providers may process information according to their own services, configuration, and privacy practices.

For broader information about service providers, see our Privacy Policy.

15. Hostinger and Server Logs

SingingRangeTest.com is hosted by Hostinger.

Hostinger may process server logs and technical information to operate, secure, and maintain hosting services.

Server logs are not necessarily cookies and are therefore explained primarily in our Privacy Policy rather than treated as browser cookie storage.

16. Cookie Retention

Different cookies and technologies may have different retention periods.

A technology may remain:

only for the current session;
for a defined number of days or months;
until a provider-defined expiration;
until the user deletes it;
until consent preferences are changed.

Because services such as Google Analytics can be configured differently, actual retention periods should be based on the site’s current settings rather than generic assumptions.

17. Withdrawing or Changing Consent

Where optional cookies or similar technologies rely on consent, users should be able to change their choice.

Once a consent-management system is available, the preferred method should be the site’s Cookie Settings or equivalent privacy-preference control.

Users can also manage cookies through their browser settings.

Withdrawing consent does not necessarily remove information that was lawfully processed before consent was withdrawn.

18. Children and Cookies

SingingRangeTest.com is a general-audience educational website.

We do not intentionally use cookies to create advertising profiles of children through our own website setup.

If parents or guardians have concerns about information submitted or technologies used while a child accesses the site, they can contact:

support@singingrangetest.com

19. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this policy if:

Google Analytics settings change;
a consent platform is introduced;
new WordPress or security technologies are added;
advertising is introduced;
affiliate tracking becomes active;
legal requirements change;
cookie names or providers change.

When the policy is updated materially, the Last updated date at the top of this page will be revised.
