There are a few ways to know if your WordPress website uses cookies.
1. Check the address bar
When you visit a website, the address bar in your browser will show a padlock icon if the website is secure. If you see a padlock icon, you can click on it to view the website’s security certificate. This will show you a list of all the cookies that the website is using.
2. Use the developer console
Another way to check if your WordPress website uses cookies is to use the developer console in your browser. To do this, open the developer console by pressing Ctrl+Shift+I on Windows or Cmd+Option+I on Mac. Once the developer console is open, select the “Application” tab. Under the “Storage” section, you will see a list of all the cookies that are currently stored in your browser.
3. Use a cookie scanner
There are a number of online tools that can scan your website for cookies. These tools can be a helpful way to identify all the cookies that are being used on your website, including cookies that are set by third-party services.
4. Contact your web hosting provider
If you are still unsure if your WordPress website uses cookies, you can contact your web hosting provider. They will be able to tell you if your website is using cookies and what types of cookies are being used.
It is important to note that not all cookies are created equal. Some cookies are essential for the proper functioning of a website, while others are used for tracking or marketing purposes. If you are concerned about your privacy, you can choose to block or delete cookies from your browser.
