Cookie Notice
This Cookie Notice applies to Brandwise Media and its affiliates, which you have a contract with or which provide services to you, (collectively or individually, as applicable, referred to as "Brandwise Media", “Company”, "we", "our", "us") and the Brandwise Media/Kait LeDonne website and applications at or linked to from www.kaitledonne.com ("website"). This Cookie Notice explains how we use cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website and use our web applications and programs. It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners in order to make their website work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.
Where required by applicable law, we will obtain your consent before we place any cookies on your device that are not strictly necessary for the functioning of our website.
Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Brandwise Media) are called "first party cookies". Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third party cookies". Third party cookies enable third party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g. like advertising, interactive content and analytics). The parties that set these third party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other website.
Why do we use cookies?
We use first party and third party cookies for several reasons. Our first party cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our website to operate, and we refer to these as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. Other first and third party cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our website. Third parties also serve cookies through our website for advertising, analytics and other purposes. This is described in more detail below.
The types of first and third party cookies served through our website and the purposes they perform are described below. Please note that the specific cookies served may vary depending on the specific Website you visit. You can find details of the particular cookies that are served on each Website, and of any parties serving third party cookies, as well as adjust your preferences, by clicking on the Cookie Settings link on the applicable Website. Alternatively, visitors can also use their browser settings to control how cookies are set on their devices. However, blocking some types of cookies may impact your experience of the website and impair the services we are able to offer. You can find more detailed information about how to control cookies later in this policy.
We use cookies on this site in four main ways:
- “Strictly necessary” cookies, which are first party cookies that must be set to allow us to deliver the Website to you and to provide specific services that you request from us. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. The services offered by our website that require cookies in order to function include: account log-in, shopping basket/online store, billing and comments/blog features.
- “Performance” cookies, which are first party cookies that help us to collect information about how visitors use our website and helps us with site analysis and improvements. Performance cookies will remain on your computer after you close your browser. If you opt out of, or do not allow, these cookies (as applicable), we will not know when you have visited our website and will not be able to monitor its performance.
- “Functionality” cookies, which allow our website to remember your choices or preferences, such as information on online forms or previous orders. These cookies enable you to move around our website and use its features such as accessing secure areas (e.g. content for registered users). These cookies allow us to offer you a personalized experience while using the Website. They are not used to track your browsing activity on other website. They may be set by us or by third party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies then some or all of these services may not function properly.
- “Targeting” cookies, which are third party cookies set through our website by our advertising partners. They are used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other website. If you do not allow these cookies, you will still experience advertising but it will be less targeted to you.
How do we use Google Analytics on our website?
All of our website make use of cookies provided by Google Analytics to better understand how visitors use them. Google Analytics makes use of first party performance and targeting cookies placed through our website to provide us with information about users of our website. Google or its affiliate DoubleClick may recognize cookies placed through our website when you visit other website and applications. Personal information generated by these cookies about your use of our website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States of America. Google will use this information to evaluate your use of our website on our behalf and will compile reports on your activity for us.
For more information about how Google collects, uses, and shares your information collected through Google Analytics, including information collected through our website, please visit the Google Privacy Policy - Partners website at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/ or see Google’s own Privacy Policy at
https://policies.google.com/privacy.
What about other tracking technologies, like web beacons?
Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We may use other, similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called "tracking pixels" or "clear gifs"). These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enables us to recognize when someone has visited our website or opened an e-mail that we have sent them. This allows us, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within our website to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to our website from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to improve site performance, and to measure the success of e-mail marketing campaigns. If you do not wish to enable such tracking, please do not download any images in such emails, or alternatively please unsubscribe from our mailing lists by updating your choices on our preference page or by following the link at the bottom of each email. In many instances, these technologies are also reliant on cookies to function properly, and so declining performance cookies will impair their functioning.
In this policy, references to "cookies" are to cookies and to the similar tracking technologies referred to above.
Do you serve targeted advertising?
Third parties may serve cookies on your computer or mobile device to serve advertising through our website. These companies may use information about your visits to this and other website in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services that you may be interested in. They may also employ technology that is used to measure the effectiveness of advertisements. This can be accomplished by them using cookies or web beacons to collect information about your visits to this and other sites in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services of potential interest to you.
