Cookie policy overview
This Cookie Policy explains how cookies, local storage, pixels, tags, and similar technologies may be used when a person visits this Shopify-powered website.
The exact technologies present depend on the active Shopify configuration, theme, applications, analytics, consent settings, and services enabled by the merchant. This policy should be updated whenever those tools change.
What cookies and similar technologies are
A cookie is a small data file stored on a browser or device. Similar technologies may store identifiers, remember preferences, maintain a session, measure website activity, protect forms, or help services communicate.
Session cookies generally expire when the browser session ends. Persistent cookies remain for a defined period or until deleted. Local storage can retain information in the browser without using a traditional cookie.
Categories of technologies
| Category | Typical purpose | Whether it may be necessary |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Page delivery, security, fraud prevention, session management, project cart state, consent choices, and basic website functionality | Usually required for requested functionality |
| Preferences | Language, region, display choices, and previously selected settings | Optional unless required for a requested setting |
| Analytics and performance | Understanding visits, errors, navigation paths, device types, and website performance | Usually optional where consent law applies |
| Advertising and measurement | Measuring campaigns, building audiences, or showing interest-based advertising | Optional and may require consent or an opt-out |
| Third-party embedded content | Video, maps, chat, scheduling, social content, or other embedded services | Depends on the feature and provider |
Shopify and platform technologies
Shopify may use cookies and similar technologies to provide storefront functionality, security, customer privacy controls, fraud prevention, performance, and platform services.
Applications installed by the merchant may add their own technologies. Those technologies may be controlled by the application provider rather than by the website theme.
The merchant should review Shopify customer privacy settings and any installed applications to ensure the cookie banner, consent regions, and data-sharing choices match the actual configuration.
Consent and preference management
Where applicable law requires consent, non-essential technologies should not be activated until the visitor makes the required choice.
A cookie banner or privacy preference tool may allow a visitor to accept, reject, or customize certain categories. The availability and effect of a choice may depend on region, browser, and the specific Shopify or application configuration.
Withdrawing consent does not make earlier lawful processing unlawful. A visitor may need to repeat preferences after clearing cookies, using a different browser, or switching devices.
Browser and device controls
Most browsers allow users to review, block, or delete cookies and site storage. Browser privacy settings, anti-tracking features, and extensions may also limit certain technologies.
Blocking strictly necessary technologies may prevent forms, privacy settings, the project request cart, authentication, or other requested features from working correctly.
Global Privacy Control or similar browser signals may be recognized where required by applicable law and supported by the website’s configured tools.
Analytics and measurement
If analytics are enabled, technical and usage information may be processed to understand page visits, referral sources, device and browser types, navigation, errors, and performance.
Analytics should be configured to collect only information reasonably necessary for the stated purpose and should respect consent or opt-out requirements where applicable.
The website should not describe analytics as anonymous unless the actual tool and configuration support that statement.
Advertising technologies
If advertising or campaign-measurement tools are enabled, identifiers and browsing activity may be processed by advertising providers.
Depending on applicable law, this processing may be treated as targeted advertising, sharing, or sale and may require consent, disclosure, or an opt-out method.
If no advertising tools are active, this section remains a description of how the policy should operate if such tools are later enabled.
Third-party websites and embedded services
Links to external websites do not place the external website under the control of 1010 Carbon Court. A third-party website may use cookies under its own privacy and cookie notices.
Embedded content may allow the external provider to collect information when the content loads. Where practical and legally required, consent controls should prevent optional embedded tools from loading until permission is provided.
Duration and updates
Cookie duration depends on the purpose and provider. Some technologies last only for a session; others may remain for days, months, or longer.
The merchant should periodically review the active theme, applications, analytics, pixels, and Shopify privacy settings. This Cookie Policy should be updated when material technologies or purposes change.
