1. What this policy covers

This policy explains how Makeitforme uses cookies and similar technologies on https://makeitforme.store. It should be read with our Privacy Notice.

A cookie is a small text file stored on a device when a website is visited. Similar technologies include pixels, tags, local storage, software development kits, and device identifiers.

2. Our cookie categories

Strictly necessary cookies

These technologies are required for core functions such as the shopping cart, checkout, payment routing, account login, security, load balancing, and recording privacy choices. The website cannot provide those functions reliably without them. Consent is not normally required for a technology that is strictly necessary for a service you request.

Typical examples on a WooCommerce store include woocommerce_cart_hash, woocommerce_items_in_cart, wp_woocommerce_session_*, authentication cookies, security cookies, and a cookie recording consent choices. Session cookies usually expire when the browser closes. A WooCommerce session identifier commonly lasts about two days, although configuration can change.

Preference and functionality cookies

These remember choices such as display settings, wishlist or comparison features, language, location, or other preferences. Some may be set only after consent where they are not strictly necessary.

Analytics cookies

With consent where required, analytics technologies help us understand visits, traffic sources, page performance, and errors. Google services connected through Google Site Kit may be used where enabled. Common Google Analytics cookies include _ga and _ga_*; their duration depends on our configuration and may be up to two years.

Advertising and social-media cookies

With consent where required, advertising or social technologies may measure campaigns, limit repeated adverts, build audiences, or enable sharing. Providers can recognise a browser across websites. We will not intentionally activate non-essential advertising cookies before the required choice has been made.

Payment-provider technologies

Payment providers such as PayPal may use cookies or similar technologies for fraud prevention, session security, checkout, and remembering payment preferences. Some are necessary to complete the payment method you choose; others are governed by the provider’s consent and privacy controls.

3. Providers that may set technologies

Depending on the features enabled and the choices you make, technologies may be set by Makeitforme and providers supporting:

• WordPress and WooCommerce ecommerce functions;
• Hostinger hosting, security, performance, or marketing tools;
• PayPal and card-payment services;
• Google Site Kit, Google Analytics, or other Google services;
• Jetpack security, performance, or statistics;
• Mailchimp or Hostinger Reach marketing features; and
• wishlist, comparison, contact-form, or fraud-prevention features.

A provider may change cookie names or durations. The live consent panel, browser storage, or provider notice gives the most current technical details.

4. Your choices

When required, our cookie banner should let you accept, reject, or customise non-essential cookies. Rejecting non-essential cookies must be as easy as accepting them. Necessary cookies remain active because they support services you request.

You can change a previous choice through the Cookie Settings link or control displayed on the website. You can also remove or block cookies in your browser. Browser blocking may prevent the cart, checkout, login, or preferences from working correctly.

Withdrawing consent does not make earlier processing unlawful. It prevents future use of the relevant non-essential technologies after the choice is applied.

5. Do Not Track and browser signals

Browsers may transmit “Do Not Track” or other privacy signals. There is no single universally accepted response standard for every signal. We respond to consent choices and any legally recognised signal that applies to our processing.

6. How long cookies last

A session cookie expires when the browser session ends. A persistent cookie remains until its stated expiry date or until it is deleted. Necessary ecommerce cookies may last from one session to approximately two days. Preference cookies may last up to one year. Analytics cookies may last up to two years, depending on configuration. Marketing-provider durations vary.

The actual duration can be shorter if you clear browser data, withdraw consent, or the provider changes its configuration.

7. Updates

We may update this policy when technologies, providers, or legal requirements change. We will revise the date at the top. We also review the website’s cookie scan and consent configuration periodically so the live controls match actual use.
