Cookie Policy

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser. They can help a service recognise a browser between visits or associate activity with a browsing session. Similar tracking technologies may also collect information about visits and interactions without storing a cookie.

2. Why We Use Analytics

We use optional cookies for analytics and tracking through Google Analytics 4 (GA4). These help us understand which pages visitors use, how they reach the website, and how they interact with its content, so we can evaluate and improve the website.

Depending on its configuration and your choices, analytics may process information such as page views, interactions, referral sources, approximate location, browser and device information, and browser or session identifiers. These identifiers and related information may be personal data; analytics should not be assumed to be anonymous.

If we introduce additional tracking providers or purposes, we will update this policy to identify them and explain their use.

3. Google Analytics 4 Cookies

GA4 commonly uses the following first-party cookies, which are set for the website being visited:

_ga — Used to distinguish users. Google's documented default expiry is two years.

_ga_<container-id> — Used to persist session state. Google's documented default expiry is two years; the actual cookie name includes an identifier for the relevant Google Analytics configuration.

These are Google's default expiry periods. Actual expiry may vary with our analytics configuration and your browser's restrictions. Subsequent visits may renew a cookie's expiry period.

Google's documentation provides more information about these cookies: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/11397207?hl=en

4. Consent and Your Choices

Where required by applicable law, we ask for your consent before enabling optional analytics and tracking. You can accept or reject optional cookies through our cookie consent controls and revisit your preferences to change your choices or withdraw consent at any time.

Rejecting optional analytics cookies does not prevent you from browsing our website. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before you withdrew it.

You can use your browser settings to view, block or delete cookies. The steps vary by browser; consult its help or privacy settings. Deleting cookies does not necessarily stop them being set again on a later visit. Blocking cookies alone does not necessarily prevent all analytics requests or tracking technologies.

5. Google and Other Websites

Google processes information in connection with the analytics service. Further information about how Google uses information from sites that use its services is available here: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites

This policy covers the Insole 3D marketing website. External services you visit through our links, including our shop, have their own cookie and privacy policies. Their cookie practices are not an inventory of cookies used on this website.

6. Updates and Contact

We will update this policy when our use of analytics or tracking changes. Our Privacy Policy explains our broader handling of personal information and your privacy rights.
