1. Introduction
Welcome to chickschurchs.click (hereinafter referred to as "we," "us," or "our website"). We are committed to being transparent about how we collect and use data related to you. This Cookie Policy provides detailed information about how and why we use cookies on our website, and the choices you have regarding their use.
This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides further detail about how we collect, use, and protect your personal information. If you have any questions about this Cookie Policy, please contact us using the details provided at the end of this document.
We operate in accordance with applicable United States federal and state laws, including the Federal Trade Commission Act (FTC Act), the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), and other relevant digital privacy regulations.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other internet-enabled device when you visit a website. They are widely used by website owners to make their websites work efficiently, to provide reporting information, and to help deliver a better and more personalized browsing experience.
Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, chickschurchs.click) are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website — such as advertising, interactive content, and analytics. The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.
Cookies may store a wide range of information, including personally identifiable information (such as your name or email address), though they typically store anonymous identifiers, browsing behavior data, preferences, and session information.
3. How Do Cookies Work?
When you visit our website, our server sends a cookie to your browser. The browser then stores the cookie on your device. Each time you visit our website again, your browser sends the cookie back to our server, allowing us to recognize you and remember your preferences or behavior from previous visits.
Cookies can be either session cookies or persistent cookies:
- Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that remain on your device only during your browsing session. They are automatically deleted when you close your browser.
- Persistent Cookies: These remain on your device after you close your browser, for a period defined by the cookie's expiration date. They are activated each time you visit the website that created them.
In addition to cookies, we may also use similar tracking technologies such as web beacons (also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs), local storage objects, and tracking pixels. These technologies work similarly to cookies and help us understand how users interact with our website and marketing materials.
4. Types of Cookies We Use
We use the following categories of cookies on our website:
4.1 Essential Cookies (Strictly Necessary)
These cookies are necessary for the website to function properly and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set only in response to actions you take, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling out forms. Without these cookies, certain services on our website cannot be provided.
Essential cookies do not store any personally identifiable information and cannot be used to track you across other websites. Because these cookies are strictly necessary, they do not require your consent under applicable law.
4.2 Analytical / Performance Cookies
These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our website. They help us understand which pages are the most and least popular, how visitors move around the website, and whether they experience any errors. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous.
If you do not allow these cookies, we will not know when you have visited our website and will not be able to monitor its performance effectively.
4.3 Functional Cookies
Functional cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our website pages. These cookies remember choices you make (such as your username, language, or region) and provide enhanced, more personal features.
If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly, and your experience on our website may be less personalized.
4.4 Advertising / Targeting Cookies
Advertising cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. These cookies are usually placed by advertising networks with the website operator's permission. They track your browsing activity across websites.
If you do not allow these cookies, you will still see advertisements, but they will be less targeted and relevant to your interests.
