Cookies and Your Privacy

At adrianbonetphotography.net, we respect your privacy and are committed to being transparent about how we use cookies. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, the specific types we use (and why!), and your options for managing them. We prioritize user privacy and believe in a less intrusive online experience.

Understanding Cookies:

Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device (computer, phone, tablet) to remember information about your visit. They act like little digital notes that help the website recognize you and personalize your experience. However, there are different types of cookies, and we only use a select few that are essential for website functionality or improve your experience without compromising your privacy.

Here’s a breakdown of the specific cookies you might encounter on our website:

• Strictly Necessary Cookies (Session Cookies): These essential cookies are temporary and automatically deleted when you close your browser. They are crucial for the website to function properly. For example, they might enable you to navigate securely between pages, remember items added to a shopping cart (if applicable), or ensure forms are submitted correctly. We don’t need your consent for these cookies, as the website simply wouldn’t work without them.

• First-Party Analytics Cookies: We use Google Analytics cookies to understand how visitors like you interact with our website. These cookies collect anonymized data about your browsing activity, such as the pages you visit, how long you stay on the site, and how you arrived. This information is incredibly valuable as it helps us improve the website’s user experience and content. We can identify areas that need improvement, optimize navigation, and ensure the content we offer is relevant and engaging. Important Note: These are first-party cookies specific to our domain, which means they only track your activity on our website and cannot be used to follow you across different websites.

• Conversion Tracking Cookies (Limited): We use limited conversion tracking through our secure contact form. This means we track whether a form submission leads to a desired outcome, such as a phone call or download. This data is anonymized and helps us understand how effective our contact form is and identify areas for improvement.

We do not:

• Use third-party cookies for tracking or advertising purposes. Third-party cookies are placed on your device by websites other than the one you’re visiting. They can be used to track your browsing activity across the internet and build a profile of your interests, which can then be used for targeted advertising. We believe this practice is intrusive and doesn’t respect your privacy.
• Sell or share your personal information with third-party companies. Your information is never used for anything other than the purposes outlined in this Cookie Policy.

Taking Control of Your Cookies:

While we only use a limited number of cookies, you still have control over them. Here’s how you can manage your cookie preferences:

• Browser Settings: Most modern browsers allow you to adjust your cookie settings. You can choose to block cookies altogether, delete them after each session, or allow them only from trusted websites like ours. Refer to your browser’s help documentation for specific instructions on managing cookies.
• Google Analytics Opt-out: You can opt-out of Google Analytics tracking by installing a browser add-on provided by Google here.

Changes to this Cookie Policy:

We may update this Cookie Policy as needed to reflect changes in our practices or comply with legal requirements. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Cookie Policy on this page.
