1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other device when you visit a website. They help websites function properly, remember user preferences, improve performance, enhance security, and provide information about how visitors use the website.
Similar technologies such as pixels, tags, scripts, local storage, and other tracking tools may also be used for similar purposes. In this Cookie Policy, we use the term “cookies” broadly to refer to cookies and similar technologies unless stated otherwise.
2. Why We Use Cookies
We use cookies and similar technologies for purposes including:
- ensuring the website and platform function correctly;
- remembering user choices and settings;
- supporting login, account, checkout, and security functions;
- protecting forms and the platform against spam, bots, and abuse;
- understanding how visitors use the website and improving performance;
- measuring the effectiveness of marketing and advertising activities;
- supporting integrations such as analytics, chatbot, and embedded third-party services.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
3.1 Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website and platform to function properly. They support essential features such as page navigation, login sessions, shopping cart and checkout functionality, account security, consent storage, and fraud prevention. Because these cookies are necessary for core functionality, they do not require prior consent.
3.2 Functional cookies
These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make, such as saved settings and certain interface preferences. On Ermisway, functional cookies are primarily set by WordPress and WooCommerce to support core platform features such as cart persistence and session continuity. These are set only where necessary for platform operation and do not require consent where they qualify as strictly necessary under applicable law.
3.3 Analytics and performance cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the website, which pages are visited most often, how users navigate the site, and whether technical issues arise. This helps us improve the website and user experience. These cookies are activated only on the basis of your consent where required by law.
3.4 Advertising and marketing cookies
These cookies and similar technologies are used to measure campaign performance, understand ad effectiveness, build audiences, and support remarketing through third-party platforms such as Meta. These cookies are activated only where you have provided the required consent.
3.5 Security and anti-abuse cookies
These cookies are used to protect the platform against spam, automated abuse, bots, and fraudulent access attempts. They are typically classified as strictly necessary and do not require consent.
3.6 Support and interaction cookies
Ermisway uses an AI chatbot provided by PureThemes to assist users with support, navigation, and general enquiries. Cookies or similar technologies associated with this tool may be set when you interact with the chatbot. Depending on the nature of the technology used, consent may be required before these are activated.
