Cookie Policy for Dove Drawers

At Dove Drawers (www.dovedrawers.com), we use a minimal number of cookies to provide a seamless experience and improve our website. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and how you can manage them. This policy complements our Privacy Policy.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, phone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They help websites function properly, remember your preferences, and provide insights into how the site is used.

2. Cookies We Use

As a small business, we limit our use of cookies to what is necessary for website functionality and analytics. We currently use the following:

• Essential Cookies: These cookies are necessary for our website to function, such as maintaining your shopping cart or ensuring secure checkout. They do not require consent under GDPR and cannot be disabled.
• Analytics Cookies: We use Google Analytics to collect anonymous data about how visitors use our website (e.g., pages viewed, time spent, referral sources). This helps us improve our site and services. These cookies are non-essential and require your consent.

We do not use marketing or third-party advertising cookies at this time. If we add new cookies in the future, we will update this policy and seek your consent where required.

3. Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how our website performs and how visitors interact with it. Google Analytics cookies collect:

• Anonymous data, such as your IP address (anonymized), browser type, device type, and operating system.
• Usage data, such as pages visited, time spent on the site, and how you arrived at our site.

This data is aggregated and does not identify you personally. You can opt out of Google Analytics cookies through our cookie consent banner or by adjusting your browser settings.

4. Managing Cookies

You can control cookies in the following ways:

• Cookie Consent Banner: When you visit our site, a banner allows you to accept or reject non-essential cookies (e.g., Google Analytics). You can change your preferences at any time via the banner or by clearing your browser cookies.
• Browser Settings: Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Note that blocking essential cookies may affect website functionality, such as the ability to place orders.
• Opt-Out Tools: Use tools like the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-On to disable Google Analytics tracking.

5. Third-Party Cookies

Google Analytics may set cookies managed by Google. These are subject to Google’s Privacy Policy. We do not control these cookies but ensure they are only set with your consent.

6. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. Significant changes will be posted on our website with a new effective date. Please review this policy periodically.
