Like many websites, we use Cookies on our Site. For more information about the Cookies we use in connection with powering our store with Shopify, see: https://www.shopify.com/legal/cookies. We use Cookies to power and improve our Site and Services (including to remember your actions and preferences), to run analytics, and to better understand user interaction with the Services (in line with our legitimate interests in administering, improving, and optimizing the Services). We may also allow third parties and service providers to use Cookies on our Site to better tailor services, products, and advertising on our Site and other websites.

Most browsers automatically accept Cookies by default, but you can choose to set your browser to remove or reject Cookies through your browser controls. Please note that removing or blocking Cookies may negatively impact your user experience and may cause some of the Services, including certain features and general functionality, to work incorrectly or no longer be available. Blocking Cookies may not completely prevent us from sharing information with third parties, such as our advertising partners.

Our website also recognizes the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, which allows you to opt out of certain uses or sharing of your information. If you communicate your preference to us via GPC, we will treat that signal as a valid request to opt out of sharing/targeted advertising for the browser or device that sends the signal, and if we can associate the signal with a Shopify account, we will also apply the opt-out to that account.

Apart from Global Privacy Control, we do not recognize other “Do Not Track” signals that may be sent by your web browser or device.
