About This Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Mark & Sarah Vancouver uses cookies and similar technologies on marksarahvancouver.com, and how you can control them.

For how we handle your personal information more broadly, see our Privacy Policy.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites work properly, remember your preferences, improve performance and support features such as your shopping cart and checkout.

We also use similar technologies such as pixels, tags and local storage. Where we refer to cookies in this policy, we mean all of these.

Types Of Cookies We Use

Strictly necessary cookies

These keep the website working. They remember the items in your cart, keep you signed in during checkout, protect against fraud and keep your session secure. The website cannot function without them, so they cannot be switched off.

Functional cookies

These remember choices you make, such as your region, your currency and preferences you have set, so you do not have to enter them again.

Analytics cookies

These help us understand how visitors find and use our website, which pages are popular and where people run into problems. We use this to improve the store. The information is used in aggregate and does not identify you personally.

Marketing and advertising cookies

These allow us and our advertising partners to show you relevant products on other websites and social media, and to measure whether our advertising works. They may record which pages and products you viewed.

Shopify Cookies

Our store is hosted on Shopify. Shopify sets its own cookies to run the store, process checkout and payments, prevent fraud and provide us with analytics about our shop. These are necessary for the store to operate.

Third Party Cookies

Some services we use set their own cookies on our website. These may include:

• Analytics providers, to measure website traffic and performance
• Advertising and social media platforms, including Google and Meta, for advertising and measurement
• Payment providers, to process your payment securely and detect fraud
• Apps and tools that add features to our store

These providers process the data under their own privacy policies. We encourage you to read them if you want to know how they handle your information.

Your Choices And Consent

Where the law requires it, we ask for your consent before placing analytics or marketing cookies, and you can change or withdraw that consent at any time through the cookie settings on our website.

You can also manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers let you block cookies, delete existing ones or warn you before a cookie is stored. Please note that blocking strictly necessary cookies will stop parts of the website, including checkout, from working correctly.

If you would like us to explain what data we hold about you or to have it deleted, email support@marksarahvancouver.com.

How Long Cookies Last

Session cookies are deleted as soon as you close your browser. Persistent cookies stay on your device for a set period, which can range from a few days to two years depending on the cookie and the provider, unless you delete them earlier.

Changes To This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy when we add new tools to our store or when the law changes. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last updated.
