Cookie Policy
At Love and Wick Studio, we use cookies and similar technologies to make sure our website works properly, improve your browsing experience, and help us understand how our visitors use our site.
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and how you can manage your preferences.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer or device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your actions and preferences (such as login details, basket items, and language settings) over a period of time.
Cookies can also help us analyse website traffic and personalise your experience.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
We use four main types of cookies on our website:
a. Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for our website to function properly — for example, to keep your shopping basket updated and enable checkout.
Without them, the site may not work correctly.
Examples: session cookies, security cookies, shopping cart cookies.
b. Performance & Analytics Cookies
These help us understand how visitors use our website so we can improve it.
We may use tools such as Google Analytics to collect anonymous data about page visits, time spent, and general browsing behaviour.
All information is aggregated and does not identify you personally.
c. Functional Cookies
These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make — such as your region, login information, or preferences — to enhance your experience.
Example: remembering items in your cart between visits.
d. Advertising & Marketing Cookies
These cookies are used (with your consent) to deliver relevant advertising or track the effectiveness of campaigns.
They may be placed by third-party services such as Meta (Facebook/Instagram) or Google Ads.
You can choose to opt out of these at any time.
3. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies may be set by third-party services that appear on our website, such as:
Embedded content (e.g., Instagram or Facebook feeds)
Payment processors (e.g., Tyl, Shopify, Stripe, or PayPal)
Analytics or advertising providers
We recommend reviewing their privacy or cookie policies for more information on how they handle your data.
