What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored in your browser when you visit a website. They help a site remember information about your visit, such as preferences, sessions, form behavior, analytics, and security checks.
Why we use cookies
theGuruCircle uses cookies to keep the website working, support account login, protect forms from spam, remember cookie choices, understand site performance, and improve content for educators and visitors.
Essential cookies
Essential cookies are needed for the site to work. These may support login, security, form protection, cookie consent, and basic WordPress functions. Without these cookies, some parts of the site may not work correctly.
Analytics cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the site. We use Google Site Kit and Google Analytics to see which pages are visited, how people find the site, and where we can improve. This helps us create better educator content and a stronger platform.
Advertising cookies
theGuruCircle may use Google AdSense in the future. Google and its partners may use cookies, including DoubleClick cookies, to show ads and measure ad performance. These cookies may be used to personalize ads based on visits to this and other websites, where allowed.
Form and security cookies
Some cookies and related tools may help protect forms, prevent spam, and keep the site safe. This matters because the platform collects profile submissions, contact messages, educator registrations, and sponsored content inquiries.
Third party cookies
Some tools on the site may set their own cookies, such as Google services, analytics tools, cookie consent tools, embedded content, live chat, or future advertising partners. Their privacy and cookie practices are controlled by those providers.
Managing cookies
You can manage cookies through the cookie banner when it is shown. You can also control cookies in your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect login, forms, saved preferences, analytics, or other site features.
Google ad settings
If Google advertising is active, you can manage ad personalization through Google Ad Settings at https://adssettings.google.com. You can also learn more about how Google uses data from partner sites through Google’s public privacy resources.
Updates
We may update this Cookie Policy as the site adds new tools, content, profile features, analytics, or advertising services.

Cookie consent
the site uses a cookie consent tool to help visitors make choices where consent is required. The banner may let you accept, reject, or manage certain cookies depending on your location and the active tools on the site.
WordPress cookies
WordPress may set cookies when users log in, submit forms, or interact with account features. These cookies help keep sessions working and protect member areas from misuse.
Embedded content
In the future, some pages may include embedded videos, maps, social posts, or partner tools. These third party services may place cookies or collect usage information based on their own policies.
Changing your mind
You can clear cookies in your browser at any time. You can also return to the cookie banner settings if available. If you clear cookies, some choices may reset and the banner may appear again.
