Cookie Policy
What this site stores in your browser, what each category is for, and how to control or clear it.
This page explains the cookies and similar browser storage used by the Auralith Dynamics website, what each category does and how to control it. It complements the Privacy Policy, which covers personal information more broadly.
01What cookies are
A cookie is a small text file a website stores in your browser so it can recognise the same browser on a later page or visit. Related technologies, including local and session storage, do a similar job and are covered here even though they are not strictly cookies.
Cookies set by this domain are first party cookies. Cookies set by another service used here are third party cookies.
02Strictly necessary cookies
These make the site work and cannot be switched off through the site. Blocking them in your browser can break the enquiry and request forms.
- Session. Keeps your place as you move between pages and through a form.
- Security. Protects the site from abuse.
- Preferences. Remembers simple choices, such as a dismissed notice.
These are set by the Shopify platform that hosts the site. Session entries clear when you close the browser; persistent ones last up to twelve months.
03Analytics cookies
These show how the site is used in aggregate: which pages are viewed and where a visit ends. It is reporting on patterns, not tracking of an individual.
We use it to understand which work resonates and to improve the site. It is not used for advertising. These entries typically last up to two years and can be refused without affecting your ability to browse or enquire.
04Functional cookies
These remember small conveniences, such as a choice made on a previous visit. Refusing them does not stop you using the site; it simply means those conveniences reset each time.
05Third-party cookies
A small number of services set their own cookies when used.
- Shopify. Sets platform cookies needed to serve and secure the site.
- Embedded content. Where a page embeds outside content, that provider may set its own cookies when it loads.
These providers control their own cookies under their own privacy terms. This site does not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies, and we do not sell your browsing data.
06Managing cookies
You control cookies from your browser at any time. Every major browser lets you view and delete stored cookies, block third party cookies, block all cookies for a site, or clear everything when you close the window.
The settings are usually under Privacy or Site settings. Private or incognito mode clears everything at the end of the session automatically.
Blocking strictly necessary cookies can stop the enquiry and request forms working. If a form will not submit, cookie blocking is a likely cause.
07Do Not Track
Browsers can send a Do Not Track signal, but there is no agreed standard for how a site should respond, so this site does not currently change its behaviour based on it. The browser controls above give you direct control regardless.
08Changes
This policy is reviewed whenever the services used by the site change and at least once a year. The date at the top of the page records when the current version took effect and replaces earlier versions in full.
