• What cookies are

  Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They can help a site function properly, remember preferences, understand traffic, and improve performance.
  We may also use similar technologies where relevant, such as local storage or scripts that support site functionality or analytics. For simplicity, this policy refers to these technologies together as “cookies” unless a distinction is needed.

• How we use cookies

  We currently use cookies in the following categories:

  1. Necessary cookies

     These cookies are required for the website to function properly and securely. They may also remember your cookie preferences so that your choices can be respected on future visits.
     Necessary cookies do not require consent where applicable law allows them because they are essential to provide the website or a function you requested.

  2. Analytics cookies

     These cookies help us understand how visitors use TheFashionDB, such as which pages are viewed, how people move through the site, and whether the site is working as expected.
     We use Google Analytics for this purpose.
     Analytics cookies are used only if you choose to accept them where consent is required by applicable law.

  3. Marketing cookies

     TheFashionDB does not currently use marketing or advertising cookies.
     If that changes in the future, we will update this Cookie Policy and the site’s cookie controls before enabling them.

• Services related to cookies

  1. Webflow

     The website is hosted on Webflow. Webflow may use necessary technical cookies or similar technologies required for hosting, delivery, stability, security, and basic website functionality.
     Necessary cookies do not require consent where applicable law allows them because they are essential to provide the website or a function you requested.

  2. Google Analytics

     If you accept analytics cookies, Google Analytics may place cookies on your device to help us measure traffic and usage patterns on the website.
     Google Analytics is not enabled through our consent settings unless you have accepted analytics cookies where such consent is required.

• Third-party resources that are not used as cookie categories

  The website may load external resources such as Google Fonts or Adobe Fonts in order to display typography correctly. These services may receive technical request data from your browser, such as IP address or request headers, when content is loaded from their servers.
  However, we do not treat those font services as our website’s cookie categories in this policy.
  For more detail on how such services may process personal data, please see our Privacy Policy.

• Legal basis and consent

  Where required by applicable law, we ask for your consent before using non-essential cookies, including analytics cookies.
  You can accept, refuse, or change your cookie preferences through the cookie banner or preference controls available on the website.
  Necessary cookies remain active because they are required for the operation of the website or for storing your privacy choices.

• How to manage cookies

  You can manage your preferences in the following ways:

  1. Cookie banner

     Through the cookie banner or cookie preference controls on TheFashionDB.

  2. Browser settings

     Through your browser settings, where you can block or delete cookies.

  3. Third-party tools

     Through relevant third-party tools, such as Google’s browser add-on for opting out of Google Analytics, where available.
  Please note that blocking necessary cookies may affect basic site functionality or prevent your preferences from being remembered.
  Declining analytics cookies should not stop the editorial parts of the website from working normally.

• Retention

  Cookies remain on your device for different periods depending on whether they are session cookies or persistent cookies.
  Where we control settings directly, we aim to keep cookie-related retention proportionate and no longer than reasonably necessary for the purpose involved.
  For more information about how long related personal data may be kept, please see our Privacy Policy.

• Updates to this policy

  We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect legal, technical, or operational changes. When we do, we will publish the updated version on this page and revise the “Last updated” date above.
