Cookie Policy
How 88Facets.com uses cookies and similar tracking technologies.
Last updated: June 2025 · Applies to: 88Facets.com
We use cookies to make 88Facets.com work, to understand how it is used, and — where you have given consent — to measure the performance of our advertising. This policy explains what cookies we use, why, and how to control them.
1. What cookies are
A brief explanation
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the website to remember information about your visit — for example, that you have added something to a shopping cart, or that you have previously accepted certain tracking preferences.
We also use similar technologies including pixels (small invisible images that record whether a page or email was opened) and local storage. For simplicity, we refer to all of these as "cookies" in this policy.

This list reflects our current cookie usage. Third-party cookies (Google, Meta, Shopify) may change as their platforms are updated. We review this list regularly.
4. How to manage your cookie preferences
Your controls
You have several ways to control how cookies are used when you visit 88Facets.com. You may change your preferences at any time without affecting the lawfulness of any consent given before the change.
When you first visit 88Facets.com, our cookie banner gives you the option to accept or decline non-essential cookies by category. You can revisit and change these preferences at any time via the cookie settings link in the footer.
Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies via their settings. Note that blocking strictly necessary cookies will prevent 88Facets.com from functioning correctly — the checkout, cart, and login features will not work without them.
You may opt out of Google Analytics tracking across all websites by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
You can manage your advertising preferences for Facebook and Instagram — including opting out of interest-based advertising — via your Meta account settings at facebook.com/ads/preferences.
5. Third-party cookies
Cookies set by our partners
Some cookies on 88Facets.com are set by third parties — Shopify, Google, and Meta — rather than by us directly. These parties set and access their cookies in accordance with their own privacy policies. We do not have direct control over third-party cookies and encourage you to review their policies.

All other cookies — functional, analytics, and marketing — are used only where you have given freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous consent via our cookie banner, in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) of GDPR (Regulation 2016/679) and the requirements of the ePrivacy Directive (2002/58/EC as amended by 2009/136/EC).
