Cookie Policy

Introduction to Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. These files contain information such as user preferences, login details, and shopping cart contents, helping the website recognize you and provide a personalized shopping experience.

Our primary purpose for using cookies is to improve your experience on the Hovoshop website. They help us understand how you interact with the site, provide convenient features, and display advertisements that are relevant to your interests.

What types of Cookies does Hovoshop use?

We use several different types of cookies to ensure the website functions efficiently and provides you with a great experience. Below are the main types of cookies and their purposes:

Strictly Necessary Cookies: These cookies are essential for the website to function. They allow you to navigate the site and use basic features like adding products to your cart and checking out. For example, when you add a canvas tote bag to your cart, a cookie is created to “remember” that product, ensuring it doesn’t disappear when you move to another page or proceed to checkout. Without this cookie, you wouldn’t be able to shop online.

Performance Cookies: These cookies help us collect anonymous information about how users use the website, such as which pages are viewed most often or any technical errors users encounter. This data helps us optimize the website and improve its performance. For example, we may use a cookie to track how many people have viewed the floral-patterned tote bag product page and how long they spent on that page. This data helps us know that the product is of great interest and may need more information added.

Functionality Cookies: These cookies allow the website to remember your choices (like language, region) to provide a more personalized and convenient experience. For example, when you log into your account, a cookie will “remember” your login information so you don’t have to re-enter it every time you return to the site. Or, when you choose to view products sorted from low to high price, this cookie will save that preference for your next visit.

Advertising & Marketing Cookies: These cookies are used to display advertisements that are relevant to your interests based on the pages you’ve visited and the products you’ve viewed. For example, after you have viewed a few tote bag designs and left the website, this cookie will help advertising platforms like Google or Facebook display ads for similar tote bags or related products like wallets or bag accessories.

Cookie Storage Duration

The storage duration of cookies depends on the type of cookie and its purpose.

Session Cookies: These cookies only exist for the duration of your visit to the website. They are deleted as soon as you close your browser. We primarily use session cookies for strictly necessary purposes, such as maintaining your shopping cart and checkout process. 

Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a specific period (e.g., a few days, months, or years) or until you delete them yourself. We use persistent cookies for performance, functionality, and advertising purposes to save your preferences and track your browsing activity.
