Cookie Policy

Last Updated:

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, provide a better user experience, and give website owners useful information about how visitors use their site.

Cookies can be "persistent" (remaining on your device until deleted or expired) or "session" cookies (deleted when you close your browser).

2. How We Use Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our website (ligamentseaeco.world) is designed so you can control optional tracking. We categorize technologies as follows:

Current implementation: We use browser local storage (not a traditional HTTP cookie) to remember your cookie choices on this site. We do not currently deploy first-party analytics or advertising tags that set cookies or read optional categories on our pages. If we add such tools in the future, they will only be activated in line with your choices on this banner (and with updates to this policy).

2.1 Strictly Necessary

These items are essential to remember your privacy choices and keep core pages working. You cannot opt out of storing your consent choice while still using the preference feature; clearing site data will reset preferences.

  • Consent preferences: Stored in localStorage under a key related to cookie consent
  • Basic session behaviour: Standard browser operation when you load pages

2.2 Analytics (optional — reserved)

If we enable analytics (for example, aggregated visit statistics), those technologies may use cookies or similar identifiers to understand how visitors use the site. Typical categories of information could include page views, navigation paths, time on page, and approximate region. Such tools would only run after you opt in via this site’s consent controls.

2.3 Marketing (optional — reserved)

If we enable advertising or remarketing technologies, they may use cookies to measure campaigns or show relevant ads. Those technologies would only run after you opt in via this site’s consent controls.

3. Third-Party Services

Third-party services loaded by our pages may set or read cookies independently. These may include:

  • Font and icon delivery: For example, Google Fonts and Font Awesome CDN may process IP address and technical data when assets are requested
  • Content delivery: CDNs used to serve styles or scripts
  • Future analytics or advertising partners: Only if you consent and we enable such tools

We do not control third-party cookies. Please refer to those providers’ privacy and cookie notices. Reducing tracking in your browser or using privacy-focused extensions may limit some third-party requests.

4. Your Cookie Choices

When you first visit our website, you will see a cookie consent banner that allows you to:

  • Accept All: Enable all cookie categories
  • Reject: Disable all optional cookies (only necessary cookies remain)
  • Cookie Settings: Choose which cookie categories to enable or disable

You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clearing this site’s stored data (for example local storage / site data) for ligamentseaeco.world and revisiting the website, or when we provide an in-site preference link.

5. Managing Cookies in Your Browser

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can:

  • View cookies stored on your device
  • Delete cookies individually or all at once
  • Block cookies from specific sites or all sites
  • Set preferences for first-party and third-party cookies

Please note that blocking or deleting cookies may affect your experience on our website and other sites you visit.

Browser-Specific Instructions

For information on managing cookies in specific browsers, please visit:

  • Chrome: chrome://settings/cookies
  • Firefox: about:preferences#privacy
  • Safari: Preferences > Privacy
  • Edge: edge://settings/privacy

6. Retention

Retention depends on the technology:

  • Session cookies: Removed when you close your browser (if used)
  • Consent preferences (local storage): Typically up to 12 months unless you clear site data sooner
  • Analytics technologies: If enabled after consent, retention is set per provider (for some products, up to 26 months unless shortened)
  • Marketing technologies: If enabled after consent, varies by provider

7. Local Storage

In addition to cookies, we use browser localStorage to store your cookie consent preferences. localStorage data persists until explicitly deleted and is not sent to our servers with each request.

8. Do Not Track

Some browsers send a “Do Not Track” or similar preference. There is no single global standard. We design optional analytics and marketing (when enabled) not to run unless you opt in through our banner; we also avoid enabling optional tracking while a recognized DNT signal is present where our scripts can detect it reliably.

9. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal reasons. Any updates will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
