Cookie policy

1. Purpose and scope

This Cookie Policy explains how cookies and similar browser technologies may be used in connection with the CQELGIN CORP online store. It should be read with the Privacy Policy, which explains the wider handling of personal information. A cookie is a small record placed in or read from a browser; similar technologies can include local storage, pixels, and identifiers associated with a session.

The tools actually used depend on the Shopify configuration, installed applications, and features enabled for the live store. The presence of a category description does not mean every optional technology in that category is active. Contact us if you need details about a specific technology encountered while using the store.

2. Session and persistent technologies

A session cookie generally lasts for a browsing session, while a persistent cookie can remain until its expiry or until it is deleted. A first-party cookie is associated with the store’s domain; a third-party technology can be associated with an external provider. Whether a technology is essential depends on what it does, rather than only on who provides it or how long it lasts.

Browser storage can hold preferences or technical information without taking the form of a conventional cookie. A pixel can send information when a page or resource is requested. Consent and privacy obligations can apply to these technologies as well. The store’s actual configuration should be assessed across all of these methods, including applications added after the page design was installed.

3. Strictly necessary functions

Essential technologies can support security, network routing, fraud prevention, a shopping session, cart functionality, checkout, and the recording of a privacy preference. Some are needed to provide a feature that you specifically request. These technologies should be limited to their necessary purposes and should not be relabeled as essential merely to avoid a consent requirement.

Blocking an essential platform technology may prevent a cart, payment process, or preference from working correctly. This does not mean that every technology offered by Shopify or an application is required for the store. Optional measurement and marketing functions are subject to the privacy choices and legal requirements that apply to those separate purposes.

4. Preference functions

Preference technologies can remember choices such as a selected language, region, accessibility option, or privacy setting when those features are enabled. A preference necessary to implement your privacy choice can have a different role from an optional convenience preference. The legal treatment depends on the specific function and the law that applies.

The furniture category filters supplied with this site use the category parameter in the page URL. Sorting also uses the URL, so those selections can be shared or revisited without a custom persistent tracking cookie. These filters do not create an analytics profile or store a separate browsing history in local storage.

5. Analytics and performance

Optional analytics can measure how visitors use pages, identify technical problems, and evaluate changes to a store. Depending on the service, it may process identifiers, approximate location inferred from a network address, device details, page events, and visit timing. Analytics should only be enabled in accordance with applicable consent or other legal requirements and the configured privacy choices.

The furniture-filter and inquiry interfaces do not load a separate analytics library. Shopify or another store service may provide analytics according to the applicable configuration and privacy choices. Contact us if you need information about a particular provider or technical identifier.

6. Advertising and personalization

Advertising technologies can associate activity with an identifier to measure campaigns, personalize advertisements, or connect activity across services. These purposes are distinct from operating a requested checkout. Some jurisdictions provide specific opt-out rights for targeted advertising, sale, or sharing; other jurisdictions require prior consent for the underlying device access.

The furniture-filter and inquiry interfaces include no dedicated advertising pixel or social-media embed. Any additional marketing or advertising function is subject to the disclosures, controls, and permissions that apply to it. A visitor’s decision to browse products or complete a purchase should not be treated as blanket consent to unrelated advertising activity.

7. Providers and current inventory

Shopify powers the commerce platform. Payment and delivery integrations configured for an actual order can also involve providers with their own technical requirements. Their exact cookie names, durations, and endpoints may change as the enabled features change. Use the available privacy controls or contact us to request information about the technologies relevant to your visit.

Cookie names and durations can change with platform updates and enabled services. You may ask us for information about a specific cookie, including its provider, purpose, category, and duration. Include the cookie name and page where it appeared, without sharing unrelated personal information.

8. Giving or withholding consent

Where prior consent is required, optional technologies should remain inactive until your choice permits them. A suitable consent control should offer a clear way to accept or reject optional categories and adjust preferences. Essential technologies may operate without optional-category consent only where the applicable rules allow that use.

Choices for platform technologies are managed through the store’s available customer privacy controls. A recorded choice should govern the optional purposes to which it applies. If you cannot find a control or believe that an optional technology is operating contrary to your choice, contact us so that we can review the issue.

9. Changing your choice

Use the live store’s privacy settings control, when available, to revisit an optional-category choice. A change should apply to future activity governed by that choice. It may not automatically erase a record already held by a provider, and some existing browser records may need to be deleted separately. Contact us if you cannot locate the relevant control.

You can also adjust your browser to delete stored cookies, block certain sites, or limit third-party access. The exact steps depend on your browser and device. If you clear the record holding your privacy preference, the store may need to ask for your choice again. Clearing cookies on one browser does not necessarily change another browser or device.

10. Browser signals and privacy rights

Some browsers provide preference signals that can express an opt-out request. Where applicable law requires a recognized signal to be honored, the live platform and integrations must be configured to handle it appropriately. A generic Do Not Track setting and a legally recognized opt-out preference signal are not necessarily the same mechanism.

Cookie choices are one part of your privacy rights. You may separately have rights relating to personal information already collected, including access, correction, deletion, or an applicable advertising opt-out. See the Privacy Policy for the request process. Use the contact details below to submit a privacy request and explain the right you wish to exercise.

11. Security, retention, and updates

Cookies should not be used to expose complete payment credentials or other unnecessary sensitive information. Access to technical records should be appropriate to the service provider’s role and purpose. Session security and fraud-prevention measures do not guarantee that every device or network is free from risk, so use a trusted device when purchasing.

Technology duration and server-side retention are different questions. A browser record may expire while transaction records are lawfully retained for a separate purpose. We may update this policy when the store’s tools or relevant requirements change. The update date identifies this version; newly added optional purposes still require the permissions and disclosures that apply to them.

12. Contact CQELGIN CORP

Contact us if you have a question about the store’s use of browser technologies, cannot find a privacy control, or want to make a privacy request. Tell us which page or function caused the concern and which browser you used if that is relevant. Do not include passwords, full card details, or unnecessary sensitive information.

The contact details below are provided as plain text. For more information about the handling of personal information associated with orders, communications, and service providers, read the Privacy Policy. Your rights under applicable law are not reduced by the availability or absence of a particular cookie-control interface.
