Cookie Policy

1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how 99 Cent Stickers uses cookies and similar technologies in connection with its informational website. Cookies are small files stored on a user’s device that help ensure proper site functionality and support certain preference settings. The website uses a limited set of cookies designed to maintain essential operations, improve navigation, and support aggregated analytics without identifying individual users. Cookies are not used for behavioral tracking, cross-site targeting, or personalized advertising. The website does not sell or share personal information and does not use targeted advertising as defined under applicable U.S. state privacy laws.

2. Types of Cookies Used
2.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

Strictly necessary cookies are required to enable core website functions. They support tasks such as loading pages, maintaining secure sessions, and ensuring that navigation works as expected. Without these cookies, several parts of the website may not operate correctly. These cookies do not store information for analytical or marketing purposes. Users cannot disable strictly necessary cookies through preference tools because the website cannot function without them.

2.2 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow the website to remember certain user preferences, such as language settings or previously visited sections. These cookies enhance usability by maintaining consistency across visits. Functional cookies do not track browsing behavior across other websites or store detailed personal profiles. They help maintain a stable experience without altering the informational nature of the content. Users may disable these cookies through browser settings, although some preferences may then be lost.

2.3 Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies collect aggregated, non-identifying data about how visitors interact with the website. Typical information may include which pages receive the most visits, how long users remain on specific sections, and general navigation patterns. The purpose is to understand site performance and make structural improvements when necessary. Analytics cookies are designed to avoid linking data to specific individuals. Where applicable, the website may request user consent before enabling analytics cookies.

2.4 Advertising Cookies

Advertising cookies may be present to measure the general reach of non-personalized informational messages. The website does not use these cookies to deliver targeted advertising, track users across different websites, or create marketing profiles. The presence of advertising cookies is limited and does not affect the neutrality of the content. These cookies do not evaluate user behavior for promotional purposes. Users can adjust their preferences regarding these cookies when available through the consent banner.

3. Cookie Retention Periods

Cookies may either be session-based or persistent. Session cookies are stored temporarily and are deleted when the browsing session ends. Persistent cookies remain on the device for a predetermined period or until they are manually removed by the user. Retention times vary by cookie type according to their technical purpose and necessity. The website limits retention duration to what is operationally required and does not extend storage beyond functional needs.

4. Cookie Consent and User Choice

When users visit the website for the first time, a cookie banner may appear to inform them of cookie usage. The banner provides options to accept all non-essential cookies or adjust preferences. No optional cookie category is pre-selected, ensuring that users actively choose whether to allow analytics or advertising cookies. Strictly necessary cookies operate without explicit consent because they are essential for site functionality. Users may revisit or update their cookie preferences at any time through available tools.

5. Managing Cookies Through Browser Settings

Most web browsers allow users to delete cookies, block them entirely, or configure alerts when cookies are being used. These settings can typically be found in the privacy or security section of the browser menu. Adjusting cookie settings may influence how the website functions, particularly when strictly necessary cookies are disabled. Users who wish to manage cookies independently may consult their browser documentation. Blocking cookies does not affect the availability of informational content but may affect navigation stability.

6. How Cookies Relate to Personal Data

Some cookies may store identifiers that, in combination with other information, could be considered personal data under certain privacy laws. When this is the case, the website handles the information according to the principles outlined in the Privacy Policy. Cookie-derived data is not used to make decisions about users, create profiles, or deliver targeted advertising. Users may request access, correction, or deletion of personal data associated with cookies using the contact details provided in this policy. Additional verification may be required to ensure secure handling of such requests.

7. Updates to This Cookie Policy

99 Cent Stickers may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in technology, legal standards, or website operations. The Last Updated date at the top indicates when revisions were applied. Users are encouraged to review this policy periodically for the most current information. Continued use of the website indicates acknowledgment of updates to this policy.
