Privacy Choices
Cookie Consent
Effective date: June 4, 2026. This page explains how AK Chic Closet uses cookies and similar technologies for cart, checkout, security, analytics, personalization, and marketing.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small files or identifiers placed on your browser or device. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels, tags, scripts, device identifiers, and server logs. They help the website remember cart contents, process checkout, keep accounts secure, measure performance, and understand how visitors use the store.
Consent Standard
Essential cookies are needed for the store to work and cannot usually be switched off through our website. Where laws require consent, AK Chic Closet should use optional analytics, advertising, and personalization cookies only after the visitor gives consent. Visitors can reject optional cookies and can change choices later.
Cookie Categories
| Category | Purpose | Consent Position |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly Necessary | Cart, checkout, login, account security, fraud prevention, consent storage, server load balancing, and site operation. | Required for the store to work. |
| Preferences | Theme mode, region, language, sizing, recently viewed products, and saved choices. | May be optional depending on the technology used. |
| Analytics | Understanding traffic, product interest, page speed, errors, and conversion flow. | Use with consent where required. |
| Marketing | Ads, retargeting, social pixels, audience measurement, campaign attribution, and personalized offers. | Use with consent where required and provide opt-out choices. |
WooCommerce and Ecommerce Cookies
WooCommerce and related plugins may use cookies or local storage to remember cart contents, detect checkout sessions, calculate taxes or shipping, prevent fraud, and keep account areas secure. These are generally necessary for online shopping. Additional payment, shipping, wishlist, membership, analytics, advertising, or form plugins may add their own technologies and should be reviewed in the WordPress admin area.
