1. Introduction
This Cookies Policy explains how Grescarynne (“we,” “us,” or “our”) may use cookies and similar technologies on grescarynne.com (the “Website”). These technologies may be used to support essential website functions, maintain continuity during shopping activities, improve website performance, and, where applicable, support analytics or advertising-related activities.
We offer living room furniture and bedroom furniture to customers throughout the United States. This policy is intended to help visitors understand how cookies work, the purposes different types of cookies may serve, and how to manage their cookie preferences.
The cookies and similar technologies actually used on our Website depend on its current technical configuration and the services enabled. The categories described in this policy do not mean that every type of technology listed is necessarily in use.
This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which provides additional information about how we collect, use, disclose, retain, and protect personal information.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small data files that a website may store in a visitor’s browser or on their device. Cookies can help a website recognize a browser during a visit or on subsequent visits and support functions such as maintaining shopping cart information.
Cookies may be temporary or persistent. Temporary cookies generally expire when a browser session ends, while persistent cookies may remain on a device for a period determined by their settings until they expire or are deleted.
Depending on our Website’s actual technical configuration, we may also use similar technologies, including:
Pixel Tags: Small technical elements that may help determine whether a page or specific content has been viewed or whether an interaction has occurred.
Local Storage: A browser feature that can store certain information on a device for longer than a single page visit.
Other Online Identification Technologies: Technologies that may be used to recognize a browser, device, or specific interaction.
These technologies do not all operate in the same way. Their specific capabilities depend on how they are implemented.
3. Types of Cookies We May Use
Cookies can be classified according to their purposes. The categories below describe common industry practices and potential uses; they do not represent confirmation that every category has been implemented on our Website. Our actual use depends on the technologies installed and the features enabled.
3.1. Strictly Necessary Cookies
Strictly necessary cookies may support the basic operation of our Website and functions required to provide online shopping services requested by visitors.
Depending on our Website’s actual configuration, these functions may include:
Maintaining shopping cart status while customers browse products.
Supporting the checkout process and handling shopping-related requests.
Maintaining session continuity where necessary.
Supporting website security and detecting certain abnormal or potentially harmful activities where the relevant technologies provide these capabilities.
Cookies that are necessary to provide a service explicitly requested by a user or to maintain essential website functions may be exempt from the same consent requirements that apply to optional cookies under applicable law. Whether an exemption applies depends on the specific circumstances and relevant legal requirements.
3.2. Functional Cookies
Functional cookies may help remember certain visitor choices or preferences to provide a more consistent browsing experience.
Depending on the features actually available on our Website, these cookies may be used to save selected settings or other preferences.
We do not claim that any specific preference-saving feature is available unless it has been implemented and verified. The use of optional functional cookies may be subject to consent requirements under applicable law.
3.3. Analytics and Performance Cookies
Analytics and performance cookies may help us understand how visitors browse and use website pages and whether website functions are working properly.
Depending on the tools actually deployed, these technologies may be used to evaluate page visits, navigation patterns, page-loading performance, or overall website usage. Such information may help us identify areas for improvement.
We do not identify any specific analytics service provider in this policy because the services in use must be verified against our Website’s actual technical configuration.
Analytics cookies are not automatically necessary for the Website to function. Optional analytics technologies should be handled in accordance with applicable consent requirements and privacy regulations.
3.4. Advertising and Targeting Cookies
Advertising and targeting cookies may be used by a website or advertising service to measure advertising effectiveness, understand potential audience interests, or support personalized advertising.
Depending on the technologies used and their configuration, certain advertising technologies may also recognize a browser across different websites. However, this capability is not shared by all cookies and should not be assumed to be enabled on our Website.
Unless verified, we do not claim that our Website uses personalized advertising, cross-site tracking, or any specific advertising platform.
If advertising cookies or similar technologies are actually deployed on our Website, their use will be subject to applicable legal requirements and the choices users are entitled to make under those requirements.
4. How We Use Cookies
Depending on our Website’s actual configuration, cookies and similar technologies may be used for the following purposes:
Website Operation: Supporting essential web pages, navigation, and shopping-related functions.
Shopping Activities: Maintaining shopping cart information or supporting checkout where the relevant functions rely on cookies or similar technologies.
Preferences: Remembering user-selected settings where the relevant features are available.
Security: Helping maintain website session integrity or identify certain abnormal activities where the technologies provide these capabilities.
Performance Analysis and Improvement: Understanding website usage and technical performance where analytics technologies have been implemented.
Advertising Measurement: Evaluating advertising effectiveness or supporting personalized advertising where the relevant technologies have actually been deployed.
Essential functions and optional activities serve different purposes. Analytics, advertising measurement, and personalization should not be considered necessary for basic website operation merely because they may benefit website administration or marketing.
The information collected through these technologies and the purposes for which it is used depend on the specific technology, its configuration, and applicable privacy disclosure requirements.
5. First-Party and Third-Party Cookies
5.1. First-Party Cookies
First-party cookies are generally set by the website a visitor is browsing or by technologies operating on that website’s behalf within the relevant first-party context.
Depending on their purposes, first-party cookies may support essential functions, remember user preferences, or provide information about website performance.
The first-party cookies actually used on our Website depend on its current technical configuration.
5.2. Third-Party Cookies
Third-party cookies may be set by external services whose technologies or content are integrated into a website. Depending on the service and its configuration, third-party technologies may support analytics, embedded content, advertising measurement, or other functions.
The presence of a third-party service on a website does not necessarily mean that the service sets cookies or receives personal information. This must be assessed based on the specific technologies involved and how they are used.
We do not identify specific third-party service providers in this policy because their involvement must be verified against the services actually integrated into our Website.
If our Website uses third-party technologies, our privacy disclosures and applicable consent mechanisms should accurately reflect their purposes and data-handling practices.
Third-party service providers may process relevant information under their own privacy terms and policies, subject to the actual arrangements in place and applicable law.
6. Your Cookie Choices
You may have several ways to manage cookies and similar technologies. The available options depend on your browser, device, the technologies used on our Website, and applicable law.
6.1. Browser Settings
Most commonly used browsers allow users to view, restrict, block, or delete cookies through browser settings. The specific steps vary by browser and device.
You may consult your browser’s help resources for instructions on managing cookies and website data.
Please note that blocking or deleting cookies may affect certain website functions. For example, shopping cart continuity, checkout-related functions, session status, or saved preferences may not work as expected if they rely on cookies.
Disabling cookies does not necessarily disable all similar technologies, such as local storage or pixel-based technologies. Available controls and their effects depend on the specific technology involved.
6.2. Website Cookie Preferences
If our Website provides a cookie preference tool or consent management tool, you may use it to review and manage the optional cookie categories covered by that tool.
The availability and scope of any such tool must be consistent with the features actually implemented on our Website. This policy does not represent that a specific cookie banner, settings page, or preference center is currently available.
If applicable law requires consent before optional cookies or similar technologies are activated, our Website should obtain that consent through an appropriate mechanism before setting or activating the relevant technologies. Any legally required mechanism for withdrawing consent should also be available and operate as described in the applicable disclosures.
Where consent is legally required, refusing optional cookies should not be treated as consent to their use. Necessary technologies may continue to operate where permitted by applicable law.
6.3. Advertising and Privacy Choices
Depending on the activities actually conducted on our Website and the laws that apply, you may also have choices concerning targeted advertising, certain disclosures of personal information, or other regulated personal information processing activities.
Whether these rights apply depends on the relevant legal requirements and the specific processing activities involved. The use of cookies alone does not mean that personal information is being sold, shared for cross-context behavioral advertising, or used for targeted advertising.
If the law requires a specific opt-out mechanism or preference management method, our privacy disclosures and actual website functionality should explain how users can exercise the relevant choices.
7. Cookies and Privacy
Cookies and similar technologies may collect or generate information relating to browsers, devices, browsing activities, or interactions with our Website. Depending on the circumstances, this information may constitute personal information or personal data under applicable law.
Information obtained through these technologies will be handled in accordance with our actual data practices and the disclosures in our Privacy Policy.
For additional information about the following matters, please refer to our Privacy Policy:
The categories of personal information we collect.
The purposes for which we use personal information.
The circumstances in which we disclose information to service providers or other recipients.
Applicable data retention practices.
Privacy rights available under applicable law and how eligible individuals may exercise those rights.
Contact information for privacy-related inquiries.
The use of cookies does not, by itself, mean that personal information is sold, shared, or used for targeted advertising. Whether these activities occur depends on the actual data processing practices and the relevant definitions under applicable law.
7.1. Applicable Privacy Laws
Privacy and consumer protection requirements may vary depending on a visitor’s location, the nature of our business activities, the information involved, and whether the applicable legal thresholds or other requirements are met.
Under qualifying circumstances, certain United States federal and state laws may impose requirements relating to personal information, online tracking, consumer disclosures, data security, consent, or opt-out rights.
Where applicable law grants you rights relating to personal information or specific tracking technologies, we will explain the relevant choices through appropriate privacy disclosures and mechanisms consistent with our actual business practices and legal obligations.
We do not represent that every privacy law applies to every visitor or that the use of any particular cookie automatically triggers a specific legal obligation.
Laws outside the United States, including the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and related privacy rules, may also apply when the relevant legal conditions are met. Their applicability should not be assumed solely because a visitor accesses our Website.
8. Data Retention and Security
The duration for which cookies and similar technologies remain active depends on their configuration and purpose. Some cookies may expire when a browser session ends, while others may remain until their configured expiration date or until the user deletes them.
Information collected through these technologies may also be stored separately from the cookies themselves. Applicable retention periods depend on the type of information, the purpose of processing, our actual operational practices, and applicable legal requirements.
We do not specify individual cookie expiration dates, specific data retention periods, or particular security measures in this policy because those details must be verified against our Website’s actual implementation and data-handling practices.
Information obtained through cookies and similar technologies should be handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy and the safeguards applicable to the information and processing activities involved.
9. Changes to This Cookies Policy
We may update this Cookies Policy when our website functionality, use of cookies or similar technologies, business practices, or applicable legal requirements change.
When an updated version is published, the revised policy will describe the relevant practices as of its stated effective or revision date. If applicable law requires additional notice or renewed consent before a change takes effect, appropriate steps should be taken before the relevant practices are implemented.
We encourage visitors to review this page periodically to stay informed about how cookies and similar technologies may be used.
