BY VISITING WWW.STEPHANIEMCWILLIAMS.COM, YOU ARE CONSENTING TO OUR COOKIE POLICY.

WHAT ARE COOKIES?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember information about your visit — like your preferences and how you use the site — so your next visit is easier and the site works better for you.

They're not spyware. They're not viruses. They're more like a post-it note your browser leaves on your computer so the website can say, "Oh hey, you again. Welcome back."

HOW WE USE COOKIES

StephanieMcWilliams.com uses cookies for the following purposes:

• Necessary Cookies: These are required for the website to function. Without them, things break. We're talking basic stuff like keeping you logged in or remembering what's in your cart. You can't opt out of these because they are, as their name implies, necessary.

• Analytics Cookies: These help us understand how visitors use the site — what pages get love, what pages get ignored — so we can keep making it better. We use this data in aggregate, not to spy on any individual person.

• Marketing Cookies: These allow us to show you relevant content and promotions, including potentially through third party advertising partners. If you've ever felt like an ad was reading your mind, now you know why.

THIRD PARTY COOKIES

Some cookies on this site are placed by third parties — services like Google Analytics, email marketing platforms, and social media tools. These third parties have their own privacy policies governing their use of that information. We don't control their cookies, but we do try to work only with reputable partners.

YOUR CHOICES

You are in charge of your cookie experience. You can:

• Accept or decline non-essential cookies via our cookie banner when you first visit the site.

• Update your preferences at any time using the cookie settings in the banner or footer.

• Adjust your browser settings to block or delete cookies at any time.
  
  

Please note: if you disable cookies, some features of the site may not work as intended. The irony of blocking cookies to improve your experience is not lost on us.

HOW LONG DO COOKIES LAST?

Cookie lifespans vary:

• Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Gone. Poof. No trace.

• Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period — anywhere from a few days to a couple of years — unless you delete them manually.

UPDATES TO THIS POLICY

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. When we do, we'll post the updated version here with a new effective date. Continued use of the site means you accept the updated policy.
