Cookies Policy
This Cookies Policy explains how PrimFinds ("we" or "us") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website. We want to be transparent about our use of cookies so you know what information is being collected and why. By using the PrimFinds site, you agree to the use of cookies as described in this policy. Below we outline what cookies are, how we use them, and how you can manage your preferences.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites send to your computer or mobile device when you visit a site. Your web browser stores these files, and they contain a modest amount of data specific to you and the website. Cookies serve several important functions:
-
They remember information about your visit, such as your preferred language, items in your shopping cart, or login status. This means when you navigate between pages or return to the site later, you don’t have to re-enter this information.
-
They help websites recognize your device and understand how you interact with the site. This can improve the speed of navigation and tailor the experience to you (for example, showing you items you left in your cart).
-
Cookies can make the content you see more personalized and relevant by storing user preferences.
There are different types of cookies based on their lifespan and who sets them:
-
Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that only exist while your web browser is open. They are used during your browsing session on PrimFinds and are typically deleted when you close your browser. For example, a session cookie might remember the items you added to your cart as you move to different pages, but once you close the browser, the cookie (and the cart data) is cleared.
-
Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device after you close your browser and last for a defined period of time (they have an expiration date). Persistent cookies help our site remember you on subsequent visits. For example, if you select “Remember me” when logging in, a persistent cookie will save your login details so you don’t have to sign in again next time. Persistent cookies are also used for analytics (to track how you use the site over time). You can manually delete these cookies or wait for them to expire.
-
First-Party Cookies: These cookies are set by PrimFinds (the website you are visiting). They are typically used to ensure the site functions properly and to store your preferences. Any cookie with a domain that says “primfinds.com” (or our own domain) is a first-party cookie.
-
Third-Party Cookies: These are cookies set by other companies whose tools or services we use on our website. For example, Google Analytics sets cookies to help us analyze traffic (these would be third-party cookies because they are set by Google’s domain, not PrimFinds). Third-party cookies might also be set by content or service providers (like a video player or social media platform) if we integrate their content, though currently PrimFinds does not use much of these.
Understanding cookies can help you make informed decisions about managing them. In the next sections, we explain how exactly PrimFinds uses cookies and for what purposes.
How We Use Cookies
PrimFinds uses cookies to enhance your shopping experience and to gather analytics about site usage. Broadly, the cookies on our Site fall into two categories: essential cookies and analytics cookies.
-
Essential Cookies (Functional Cookies): These cookies are necessary for the basic operation of our website and its features. Without them, you wouldn’t be able to use important functions of the site. For example:
-
Shopping Cart & Checkout: Essential cookies allow you to add items to your cart and retain those items as you browse different pages. They also enable the checkout process to function by remembering the items you’re purchasing and your progress through the checkout steps.
-
Account Login: If you log into your PrimFinds account, essential cookies keep you logged in as you navigate the site. They remember your authentication credentials in a secure way so you don’t have to log in again on every page.
-
Site Preferences: These cookies remember choices you’ve made to personalize your experience, such as your preferred language or currency, or whether you’ve dismissed a notification banner so it doesn’t show again.
-
Security & Performance: Some essential cookies help ensure our site’s security (for instance, by facilitating the functionality of security features or helping detect irregular site behavior) and enable you to move around the site without technical issues.
Because essential cookies are crucial for the website to work, you cannot disable them via our site’s settings. They do not gather information for marketing or tracking purposes; their sole function is to provide the services you explicitly request (like placing an order or logging in). By using our site, you inherently agree to the use of these necessary cookies, as the site cannot function properly without them.
-
-
Analytics Cookies: We use these cookies to collect information about how visitors use our website. The insights from these cookies help us improve our products, website features, and overall user experience. In particular, PrimFinds uses Google Analytics cookies for this purpose. Analytics cookies on our site do things like:
-
Track the pages you visit on PrimFinds and the links you click. This tells us which products or content are the most popular and how users navigate through the site.
-
Record information about your visit such as the time spent on each page, the date and time of your visits, and how you interacted with page elements (for example, if you started checking out but didn’t complete the process).
-
Identify the referring website or source that led you to PrimFinds (for instance, whether you came to our site via a Google search, a social media link, or by typing our URL directly).
-
Capture technical information like your IP address, browser type, and device type. This helps us understand our audience’s demographics and technical preferences (e.g., many users on mobile devices) and also assists with detecting any irregular site activity.
The data collected by analytics cookies is generally aggregated and anonymized. We look at trends and statistics — for example, total number of visitors, average number of pages viewed per visit, or bounce rates (how often people leave after viewing one page). We do not use analytics cookies to personally identify you. Google Analytics provides reports to us without revealing your personal identity. We also do not allow Google to use or share our analytics data for their own purposes; it is only used to provide insights to PrimFinds.
It’s important to note that analytics cookies are not essential to the basic functioning of the Site. This means if you choose to block these cookies, you will still be able to use PrimFinds for shopping and browsing, but our ability to understand and improve how the site works for you will be limited. We appreciate the use of analytics cookies because they ultimately help us make your experience better, but we respect your choice if you decide to disable them.
-
Currently, PrimFinds does not use cookies for advertising or retargeting purposes (cookies that track you across different websites to show ads). If that ever changes, we will update this policy accordingly. Our focus right now is only on cookies that improve your site experience and help us understand our site usage.
Your Choices: Managing and Disabling Cookies
We believe it's important that you have control over your online privacy, including how cookies are used. Here are ways you can manage or disable cookies:
-
Browser Settings: Most web browsers (like Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, or Internet Explorer) provide settings that let you control or block cookies. For example, you can usually find an option in your browser’s settings or preferences menu under "Privacy" or "Security" to clear existing cookies, block all cookies, or block cookies from specific sites. You can also set your browser to notify you when a cookie is being set, so you can decide whether to accept it. Please note that if you choose to block all cookies, our website’s essential features may not work (as described above). Each browser is different, so refer to your browser's help documentation for instructions on how to manage cookies. If you use multiple browsers or devices, remember you will need to adjust settings on each one separately.
-
Cookie Banners/Tools: When you first visited our site, you may have seen a notification or banner about cookies (especially if you are visiting from a region where explicit consent is required). We attempt to honor user preferences regarding non-essential cookies. If we implement a cookie consent tool, you can use it to toggle analytics cookies on or off. (If such a tool is available on our site, it will appear on your first visit or be accessible via a “Cookie Settings” link on our site.)
-
Deleting Cookies: You can clear cookies that have already been set on your device. This is usually done through your browser settings (for example, you might see an option to "Clear browsing data" or "Clear cookies and site data"). Deleting cookies can be a good way to remove tracking data, but keep in mind it will also log you out of websites and reset preferences. For PrimFinds, this means if you clear cookies, you might need to log in again and re-add items to your cart if you were in the middle of shopping.
-
Do Not Track Signals: Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" feature that can send a signal to websites indicating you do not want to be tracked. However, there is no universal standard for how websites should respond to these signals, and at this time, PrimFinds does not respond differently to browsers with a Do Not Track signal. Instead, you can directly manage cookies as described here.
-
Opting Out of Google Analytics: If you want to opt out of Google Analytics tracking specifically, Google offers a Browser Add-on that prevents Google Analytics from collecting data on your visits to websites. You can download and install this add-on for your browser (available for most modern browsers). Keep in mind this will affect Google Analytics on all websites, not just PrimFinds. You can find more information by searching for "Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on" on Google’s site. Alternatively, you can simply block or delete the Google Analytics cookies via your browser as discussed above.
Please Note: If you disable all analytics cookies, it will not affect your ability to shop on PrimFinds, but it will make it harder for us to improve our services based on user behavior. That said, the choice is entirely yours, and we respect it. Disabling essential cookies, on the other hand, can significantly impact site functionality. We do not recommend blocking essential cookies if you intend to use our online store, as features like the shopping cart and checkout rely on them.
Managing cookies empowers you to maintain your privacy comfort level. If you have any trouble adjusting your cookie settings or have questions about how to do so, feel free to contact us and we'll do our best to help (see the "Contact Us" section below).
Consent to Use of Cookies
By using the PrimFinds website, you consent to the placement of cookies on your browser as described in this Cookies Policy. In other words, when you visit and continue to use our Site without adjusting your browser settings to block cookies, we interpret that as an agreement to our use of cookies.
If you do not agree to our use of certain cookies, you have the right to disable cookies by using the methods described above. If you decide to reject cookies, please understand that some parts of our Site might not function correctly. For example, if you disable essential cookies, you won’t be able to complete purchases because the site won’t remember the items in your cart.
For visitors from jurisdictions that require explicit consent for non-essential cookies (such as the European Union), we strive to present you with a cookies consent notice and options when you first visit our Site. Even if such a notice is not present, the guidance in this policy still applies: you can always manage your cookie preferences through your browser.
Your current cookie choices (acceptance or rejection of certain cookies) will remain in effect until you clear your cookies or change your settings. If you clear cookies, the next time you visit our Site we will treat you as a new visitor and cookies may be set again (with consent if applicable).
By continuing to use PrimFinds without disabling cookies, you are confirming that you understand and agree to our use of cookies as outlined here.
Updates to This Cookies Policy
We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or to address changes in legal requirements or technology. When we make updates, we will change the "Last Updated" date at the bottom of this policy. For significant changes, we may also provide a more prominent notice (for example, on our homepage or at the point of cookie consent).
We encourage you to review this Cookies Policy periodically to stay informed about how PrimFinds is using cookies. Your continued use of our Site after any modification to the cookie policy will constitute your acknowledgment of the changes and consent to abide by the updated policy.
