1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a website. We also use similar technologies such as local storage, session storage, pixels, and SDKs (collectively referred to as “cookies” in this notice). Cookies can be set by us (“first-party” cookies) or by third parties whose services we use (“third-party” cookies). They can be deleted automatically when you close your browser (“session” cookies) or remain stored for a longer period (“persistent” cookies).

4. How to manage cookies
When you first visit choicely.com from the EEA, the UK, or Switzerland, we ask for your consent to non-essential cookies via our cookie banner. You can change your choices at any time by clicking the “Cookie settings” link in the website footer.
You can also manage cookies through your browser settings, including blocking or deleting cookies. Note that if you block strictly necessary cookies, parts of the Services may not work.
More information about managing cookies is available from your browser provider and from https://www.aboutcookies.org.
5. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control
We honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal where required by applicable law (such as the California Consumer Privacy Act). When we receive a GPC signal from your browser, we treat it as an opt-out of any “sale” or “sharing” of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, and we do not engage in such sales or sharing in any case. We currently do not respond to legacy “Do Not Track” signals because no common standard exists.
