COOKIE POLICY
Welcome to Santa’s Gifts, this cookie policy explains how we use cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website at
Santa’s Gifts. Why we use these technologies , as well as your rights to control our use of them, are all explained there.
We may at times use cookies to collect personal information, or that becomes personal information if we combine it with other information.
What are cookies?
Cookies (often known as internet cookies) are text files with small pieces of data that are used to identify your computer as you use a network. Specific cookies are used to identify specific users and improve their web browsing experience. Data stored in a cookie is created by the server upon your connection. This data is labelled with an ID unique to you and your computer. When the cookie is exchanged between your computer and the network server, the server reads the ID and knows what information to specifically serve you
Santa’s Gifts uses 1st & 3rd party cookies
First-party cookies are mainly about streamlining the users’ experience on a website.
The host domain (santasgifts.co.uk) creates first-party cookies. These are non-controversial and seen as an agreement between the user and the site to help things run better.
Cookies can contain sensitive information, however, first-party cookies contain only the information you enter on the website and, maybe, your IP address. This information only goes to the party whose website you visit.
Third-party cookies are created by parties other than the website owner. They are usually deemed “non essential cookies” by data privacy laws.
Most of these are tracking cookies created by advertising companies. Their tracking allows you to see ads for products like those you buy.
Cookies and why we use them?
Internet cookies are a simple way of moving information from one session to another on a website, or from one session to another on similar websites without burdening a server machine with large amounts of data storage. And our website use this information for the following purposes:
- recognizing your computer when you visit the website (user ID, passwords, autocomplete).
- personalizing the website for you so you can have a unique user experience.
- tracking you as you browse the website
- to improve the user interface for a better user experience
How can I control cookies?
Most popular browsers allow you to disable cookies in their settings. While browser cookies can be useful, as they keep you from having to enter the same data each time you visit a website, they can also cause a privacy concern. Many e-commerce sites like our-selves and social media platforms use third-party cookies as trackers so they can show you ads based on your internet browsing habits.
Aside from these privacy concerns, cookies themselves aren’t dangerous. And you have a legal right to decide whether or not you would like to accept or reject our cookies. The easiest way to stay in control of your online security is to know how to disable cookies and enable them in your web browser. Keep reading our guide to learn how and when to adjust your cookie settings,
