Cookie Policy

Effective date: April 2026

What are cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your web browser when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, remember your preferences, and provide information to website owners.

How we use cookies

A State of AI is a publication focused on AI. We keep our cookie use as minimal as possible, and we will always be transparent about any changes to how we use them.

Essential cookies

We may set a small number of technical cookies that are strictly necessary for the site to function. These might include:

• A cookie to remember your light or dark mode preference.
• Security cookies set by our infrastructure provider to protect against automated threats.

These cookies do not track you across other websites and do not collect personal information.

Analytics

We use a cookieless analytics service to understand site traffic. It does not set cookies and does not track individual users — only aggregated, anonymised data such as page views.

Advertising and sponsored content

If we introduce advertising or sponsored content in the future, this policy will be updated to reflect any new cookie use before it is activated.

How to control cookies

You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Deleting or blocking cookies may affect how some parts of the site display, but because we use so few, you are unlikely to notice a difference.

Most browsers allow you to:

• View which cookies have been set.
• Block cookies from specific sites.
• Delete all cookies when you close the browser.

For more information, check your browser's help documentation.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date.
