Cookies Policy
This Cookies Policy provides a comprehensive explanation of what cookies and similar technologies are, how Boneanklevibrant ("we", "us", "our") uses them on the website boneanklevibrant.world, for what purposes, and how you can manage or disable them. This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which describes in detail how we collect, use and protect your personal information when you browse our site, purchase indoor plants, use our contact form or otherwise interact with our services. By using our website, you consent to the use of cookies and similar technologies as described in this policy, except where your consent is required by law and you have not given it.
What are cookies
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, smartphone or other device capable of accessing the internet) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function correctly, to improve user experience, to remember your preferences and choices, and to provide the website owner with information about how the site is used. Cookies are typically stored by your web browser and may be sent back to the server that set them when you revisit the site or navigate between pages. Session cookies are temporary and are deleted automatically when you close your browser; they allow the website to link your actions during a single browsing session (for example, to keep you logged in or to remember items in a basket). Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period (which may be minutes, days or years depending on the cookie) or until you manually delete them; they are used to remember your preferences across visits (for example, whether you have accepted the cookies notice, or your language or region settings). We may also use similar technologies such as local storage, session storage or browser cache, which can store data on your device for similar purposes; references to "cookies" in this policy may include such technologies where relevant.
How we use cookies
We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes on our indoor plants website:
- Strictly necessary cookies: These cookies are essential for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions you take that amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in (if applicable), or filling in forms. They enable core functionality such as page navigation, access to secure areas, the operation of the contact form, the display of the mobile menu and the cookie consent banner. The website cannot operate properly without these cookies, and they do not store personally identifiable information in a way that identifies you to us unless you have provided that information (e.g. by submitting the contact form).
- Preference and functionality cookies: These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make (such as your acceptance of the cookies notice, or preferences for how the site is displayed) and to provide enhanced, more personal features. For example, they may remember that you have accepted our use of cookies so that we do not show you the consent banner again on subsequent visits, or they may store your region or language preference if we offer such options. The information these cookies collect may include personally identifiable information that you have provided (e.g. a saved preference linked to your email), and they may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages.
- Analytics and performance cookies: These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website, including the number of visitors, how visitors arrived at the site (e.g. from a search engine or a link), which pages are viewed most often, how long users spend on particular pages, and how users navigate between the care tips, delivery, contact and other pages. The data is typically aggregated and anonymised so that we do not identify individual users, and it is used to improve the way our website works, to improve the way we present our indoor plant range and services, and to understand which content is most useful to our visitors. We do not use this data to identify you personally unless otherwise stated in our Privacy Policy (for example, if you are logged in and we link analytics data to your account). These cookies may be set by us or by third-party analytics providers.
We do not use cookies to track you across third-party websites for advertising purposes, nor do we sell the data collected via cookies to third parties for their marketing. Where we use cookies that are not strictly necessary, we will seek your consent where required by applicable law (for example, in certain jurisdictions) by means of a notice on the website. You can withdraw your consent or change your preferences at any time by adjusting your browser settings or by contacting us as set out on our contact page.
Detailed list of cookies
Below we describe the main types of cookies we use and their typical purpose and duration. The exact names and durations may change as we update our website or service providers; this list is intended to give you a clear picture of our practices.
- Cookie consent and preferences: We may set a cookie to record that you have accepted our cookies notice or have made a choice about which categories of cookies you allow. This helps us avoid showing the notice repeatedly and apply your preferences. Such cookies are typically persistent and may last for a period of up to 12 months or until you clear them.
- Session and security: We may use session cookies to maintain your session as you move between pages (for example, to keep the state of forms or to prevent cross-site request forgery). These are deleted when you close your browser.
- Website performance and analytics: We may use cookies to measure page load times, to count visits and page views, and to understand navigation paths. This information is used in aggregate to improve site performance and content. Duration may range from session-only to several months depending on the provider and purpose.
If we introduce new cookies or change the way we use cookies, we will update this policy and, where necessary, seek your consent again.
Third-party cookies
Some cookies are set by third-party services that appear on or are embedded in our pages. For example, if we embed a map to show our location (997-1003 Western Hwy, Ravenhall VIC 3023, Australia), the map provider may set its own cookies to provide the map functionality and to collect data about your use of the map. If we use third-party tools for analytics, payment processing, or other functionality, those providers may also set cookies. We do not control these third-party cookies, and their use is governed by the respective provider's privacy and cookie policy. We encourage you to review the privacy and cookie policies of any third-party services that appear on our website. Blocking third-party cookies may affect the functionality of embedded content (for example, the map may not display or function correctly).
Managing and disabling cookies
You can control and manage cookies in several ways. Most web browsers allow you to refuse or accept cookies, or to delete existing cookies, via their settings. You can usually find these options in the "Options", "Preferences", "Settings" or "Privacy" menu of your browser; the exact location and wording may vary by browser and version. You can also set your browser to block all cookies or only third-party cookies. Blocking or deleting cookies may affect the functionality of our website: for example, you may need to accept the cookies notice again on each visit, the site may not remember your preferences, some features (such as embedded maps) may not work as intended, or you may need to re-enter information. For detailed instructions on how to manage or delete cookies in your browser, please visit your browser's help section or the manufacturer's website (e.g. support for Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge). You can also visit www.allaboutcookies.org for general information about cookies and how to manage them. If you use multiple devices or browsers, you may need to adjust the settings on each.
Where we use non-essential cookies that require your consent, you may withdraw consent at any time by changing your browser settings to block those cookies, or by contacting us using the details on our contact page. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
Your consent
When you first visit boneanklevibrant.world, we may show you a notice about our use of cookies and ask for your consent where required by applicable law (for example, in certain jurisdictions we must obtain your consent before setting non-essential cookies). By clicking "Accept" or by continuing to use the website after having been presented with the notice, you consent to our use of cookies as described in this policy, to the extent that consent is required. For strictly necessary cookies, we do not require consent as they are essential for the service. You may withdraw your consent or change your preferences at any time by adjusting your browser settings as described above or by contacting us. If you withdraw consent, we will cease setting the relevant non-essential cookies from the point at which your withdrawal is applied; existing cookies may remain on your device until you delete them or they expire.
Do Not Track and similar signals
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) or similar setting that sends a signal to websites requesting that your activity not be tracked. There is no universally agreed standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. Our website does not currently respond to DNT signals in a specific way; we continue to use cookies and other technologies as described in this policy. You can still control cookies through your browser settings as described above.
Updates to this policy
We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, the technologies we use, the cookies we set, or legal or regulatory requirements. The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised "Last updated" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. If we make material changes that affect how we use cookies or how we obtain consent, we may take additional steps to inform you (for example, by showing the cookie notice again or by notifying you on the website). Your continued use of boneanklevibrant.world after the effective date of any changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy to the extent permitted by law.
