Effective Date: March 20, 2026  |  Last Updated: March 20, 2026

1. About This Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy applies to the website snob-wing.digital (the "Website"), operated by Wing Snob ("we," "us," or "our"). It describes how we use cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our Website, and explains your rights and choices regarding those technologies.

This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, which provide additional information about how we collect and process your personal data.

By continuing to browse or use our Website, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Cookie Policy. Where required by law, we will obtain your consent before placing non-essential cookies on your device.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other internet-enabled device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to the owners of the website about how visitors interact with their content.

Cookies are created by the web server and sent to your browser, where they are stored for a defined period of time. Each time you return to the same website, your browser sends the cookie back to the server, allowing the website to recognize your device and recall information about your previous visits.

In addition to traditional cookies, we may also use similar tracking technologies, including:

  • Web Beacons (Pixel Tags): Tiny invisible images embedded in web pages or emails that track whether a page has been viewed or an email has been opened.
  • Local Storage: A browser-based storage mechanism that allows websites to store data locally on your device, similar to cookies but with larger storage capacity.
  • Session Storage: Temporary storage that holds data only for the duration of your browser session and is cleared when you close the browser.
  • JavaScript Tags: Small pieces of code embedded in web pages that collect information about your browsing behavior and send it to third-party services.

Throughout this policy, we use the term "cookies" to refer collectively to all of these tracking technologies unless otherwise specified.

3. How Cookies Work

When you visit snob-wing.digital, our server may place one or more cookies on your device. These cookies serve various purposes depending on their type. Some cookies are strictly necessary for the Website to function properly, while others help us understand how visitors use our Website, remember your preferences, or deliver targeted advertising.

Cookies can be classified in two main ways:

  • By Party:
    • First-Party Cookies: Set directly by Wing Snob when you visit snob-wing.digital.
    • Third-Party Cookies: Set by external service providers (such as Google or Facebook) whose services are integrated into our Website.
  • By Duration:
    • Session Cookies: Temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser.
    • Persistent Cookies: Cookies that remain on your device for a set period of time, even after you close your browser.

4. Categories of Cookies We Use

We use four main categories of cookies on our Website. Below is a detailed description of each category and the purposes they serve.

4.1 Essential Cookies

Essential cookies (also known as strictly necessary cookies) are fundamental to the operation of our Website. Without these cookies, the Website cannot function properly, and we are unable to provide the services you request.

This information helps us improve the way our Website works and understand the interests and behaviors of our visitors.

Analytics data is typically aggregated and anonymized, meaning it does not identify you personally. We use Google Analytics as our primary analytics platform. The data collected through analytics cookies is used solely for the purpose of improving our Website and services.

4.3 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow our Website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, personalized features. These cookies may be set by us or by third-party service providers whose services we have integrated into our Website.

  • Enabling live chat and customer support features

4.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies

Advertising and targeting cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and to help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. These cookies are usually placed by advertising networks with our permission and remember that you have visited a website.

This information may be shared with other organizations, such as advertisers. These cookies can track your browsing activity across different websites.
