Cookies Policy
What are cookies?
A cookie is a small piece of data created and sent by a web page server to be stored on your device’s hard drive so it can be read back later from a browser.
Cookies may be set by the website you are visiting (known as ‘first-party cookies’) or they may be set by other websites who run content on the page you are viewing (known as ‘third-party cookies’).
We use first-party cookies to record how you use our website so we can keep fine-tuning it to bring you the best user experience we can.
We don’t sell the information collected by our first-party cookies. Ever.
What do cookies do?
Depending on their function and intended purpose, cookies can be divided into four categories: essential cookies, performance cookies, functional cookies, and marketing cookies.
Essential cookies are, well, essential to the smooth operation of a website. For example, some cookies identify a registered user, and disabling them may mean the user can’t access their account.
Performance cookies are used to analyse how visitors use websites and to monitor website performance.
Functional cookies allow a site to remember your preferences, for example, when saving you the trouble of typing in your username every time you access the site.
Marketing cookies allow advertisers to serve you ads that follow you around the web.
How do you use cookies?
At elinisakssonglass.com, we use performance cookies to allow Google Analytics & Squarespace Analytics to monitor website traffic (how you got here, where you went, what type of device and browser you’re using etc.).
We also use functional cookies to help us remember things, like what’s in your cart.
From time to time, we also measure conversions using Meta Pixel, which allows us to track user behaviour once they've been forwarded to our website after clicking an advert on one of their platforms (including Facebook and Instagram). The data enables us to analyse the effectiveness of advertising for statistical and market research purposes.
The data collected is anonymous to us, however it is stored and processed by Meta, which means that a connection may be made to your Meta-owned social media profile(s) and the data may be used for Meta's own advertising purposes in line with their Data Policy. Meta uses this data to display adverts both on their platforms and on third-party sites and as a website operator, we have no control over how this data is used.
What does this mean for me?
By continuing to use our website you agree that we can place the cookies as described above on your computer for the reasons described.
What happens if I change my mind?
You can control and/or delete individual cookies or all cookies that are already on your device, and you can also set most browsers to prevent cookies from setting-up home in the first place.
