This Cookies Policy explains how Ghefryonchclixox ("we," "our," or "us") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website. This policy provides detailed information about what cookies are, why we use them, what types of cookies we deploy, and how you can control or manage them.

What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, or other device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and provide a better user experience. Cookies contain information that is transferred to your device's hard drive and stored there for a period of time determined by the cookie's settings.
Cookies serve various purposes, from remembering your login information to understanding how you navigate through our website. They help us recognize you when you return to our site, remember your preferences, and provide you with a more personalized experience. Most websites use cookies, and they have become an essential part of how the modern internet functions.
There are different types of cookies based on their lifespan and origin. Session cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser, while persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you manually delete them. First-party cookies are set by the website you are visiting, whereas third-party cookies are set by external services integrated into the website.
Why We Use Cookies
We use cookies for several important reasons that enhance your experience on our website and help us improve our services:
Essential functionality: Some cookies are essential for our website to operate properly. These cookies enable core features such as security, network management, and accessibility. Without these cookies, certain services you have requested cannot be provided.
Performance and analytics: We use cookies to collect information about how visitors use our website, including which pages are visited most often, how long visitors spend on each page, and what error messages they encounter. This information helps us identify areas for improvement and optimize website performance.
User experience enhancement: Cookies help us remember your preferences and settings, such as language preferences, font size, and other customizable elements. This ensures you don't have to re-enter information every time you visit our site.
Navigation improvement: Cookies help us understand how you navigate through our website, which pages you find most useful, and where you might encounter difficulties. This information guides our efforts to improve site structure and user flow.
Service personalization: By remembering your previous interactions with our website, cookies allow us to provide more relevant content and recommendations tailored to your interests and needs.
Types of Cookies We Use
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the website to function and cannot be disabled in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling out forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the website may not work properly without them. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information.
Examples of strictly necessary cookies include those that enable you to navigate through our website, access secure areas, use shopping cart functionality, and maintain your session as you move between pages. They also include cookies that help us detect and prevent security risks and fraudulent activity.
Performance and Analytics Cookies
These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website, such as which pages are visited most frequently, how much time is spent on each page, and whether visitors encounter error messages. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and anonymous. We use this data to improve how our website works and to understand user behavior patterns.
Performance cookies help us identify technical issues, slow-loading pages, and navigation problems. By analyzing this information, we can make informed decisions about website improvements, content updates, and technical optimizations. These cookies do not collect information that identifies individual visitors.
Functionality Cookies
Functionality cookies allow our website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, more personalized features. For example, these cookies can remember your username, language preference, region, or customized page settings. They may also be used to provide services you have requested, such as watching a video or commenting on content.
The information collected by functionality cookies may include personally identifiable information that you have provided, such as your name or profile picture. We will always be transparent about what information we collect and how we use it. These cookies cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
Targeting and Advertising Cookies
While we currently do not use advertising cookies extensively, we reserve the right to implement them in the future. If deployed, these cookies would be used to deliver advertisements more relevant to you and your interests. They may also be used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns.
Targeting cookies remember that you have visited our website and may share this information with other organizations, such as advertisers. These cookies are often linked to site functionality provided by third-party organizations. If we implement such cookies, we will update this policy and provide you with appropriate notice and control options.
Third-Party Cookies
In addition to our own cookies, we may use various third-party cookies to report usage statistics of our website and deliver advertisements on and through our site. These third-party services have their own privacy policies and cookie policies, which we encourage you to review.
Third-party cookies may be set by services such as web analytics providers, content delivery networks, social media platforms, and embedded video players. While we carefully select our third-party partners and require them to handle data responsibly, we do not have direct control over the cookies they set or the information they collect.
Common third-party services that may set cookies on our website include analytics platforms that help us understand website traffic and user behavior, font and icon libraries that enhance visual presentation, and map services that provide location information. Each of these services operates under its own privacy and cookie policies.
How Long Do Cookies Last
The duration for which cookies remain on your device varies depending on their type and purpose:
Session cookies are temporary and are automatically deleted when you close your web browser. These cookies are used to maintain your session as you navigate through our website and do not collect information from your device.
Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period specified in the cookie or until you manually delete them. The duration can range from a few days to several years, depending on the cookie's purpose. For example, cookies that remember your language preference might last for a year, while cookies used for analytics might expire after two years.
We regularly review our cookie usage and retention periods to ensure we only keep cookies for as long as necessary to fulfill their intended purpose. When cookies are no longer needed, they are automatically deleted or you can manually remove them through your browser settings.
Managing and Controlling Cookies
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie preferences through various methods:
Browser settings: Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings preferences. You can set your browser to refuse all cookies, accept only certain cookies, or notify you when a cookie is being set. However, please note that if you block or delete cookies, some features of our website may not function properly, and your user experience may be diminished.
Cookie consent tools: When you first visit our website, you may see a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept or customize your cookie preferences. You can change these preferences at any time by accessing the cookie settings link typically found in the website footer.
Opt-out mechanisms: For certain types of cookies, particularly those used for analytics and advertising, you may be able to opt out through industry-provided tools and platforms. These opt-out mechanisms are typically provided by the third-party services that set the cookies.
Each browser handles cookie management differently. Here are links to cookie management instructions for popular browsers:
Google Chrome: Access Settings, then Privacy and Security, then Cookies and other site data. From here, you can view, delete, and manage cookies, as well as set preferences for how cookies are handled.

Please note that if you use multiple devices or browsers, you will need to manage cookie settings separately for each one.
Do Not Track Signals
Some web browsers include a "Do Not Track" feature that signals to websites that you do not want your online activities tracked. Currently, there is no universal standard for how websites should respond to Do Not Track signals. As such, our website does not currently respond to Do Not Track browser signals. However, we are committed to respecting your privacy preferences and will continue to monitor developments in this area.
You can still control cookies through your browser settings and our cookie consent tools, regardless of Do Not Track settings. We encourage you to use these available tools to manage your privacy preferences effectively.
Cookies and Personal Data
Some cookies may collect or have access to personal data. Any personal data collected through cookies is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring that any personal information collected through cookies is processed lawfully, fairly, and transparently.
When cookies collect personal data, we ensure that appropriate security measures are in place to protect that information from unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure. We also limit access to personal data collected through cookies to authorized personnel who need it to perform their job functions.
If you have concerns about how cookies may collect or use your personal data, please review our Privacy Policy for detailed information about our data practices, or contact us using the information provided at the end of this policy.
