1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and supply information to the owners of the site.

Important: Cookies do not store sensitive personal data such as passwords or credit card information.

2. How We Use Cookies

Designkida uses cookies for several essential and analytical purposes:

  • Functionality: To operate the shopping cart, remember items, and manage the checkout process.

  • Security: To protect your browsing session and prevent fraudulent activity.

  • Analytics: To understand how visitors interact with our site, which helps us improve performance.

  • Marketing: To deliver relevant advertisements and measure the success of our marketing campaigns.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We categorize our cookies into four main groups:

A. Strictly Necessary Cookies (Essential)

These are required for the website to function. Without these, you cannot use basic services like the shopping cart or secure login.

  • _shopify_y / _shopify_s: Analytics and session tracking.

  • cart / cart_sig: Stores and verifies your shopping cart contents.

  • secure_customer_sig: Enables secure customer login.

  • shopify_pay_redirect: Supports the Shop Pay checkout process.

B. Analytics & Performance Cookies

These help us understand traffic sources and user behavior so we can improve the Site.

  • Google Analytics 4 (GA4): Analyzes device types and site interactions.

  • Shopify Analytics: Monitors store performance and sales data.

C. Advertising & Retargeting Cookies

These are used to show you ads that are relevant to your interests on other platforms.

  • Meta Pixel: Tracks conversions from Facebook/Instagram ads.

  • Klaviyo: Tracks email engagement and onsite behavior for personalized marketing.

D. Preference Cookies

These remember choices you make (such as currency or language) to provide a more personalized experience.

4. Third-Party Cookies

Because our store is built on Shopify and uses integrated apps, certain cookies are set by third-party providers. These providers (such as Google, Meta, and PayPal) collect data according to their own privacy policies. We do not have direct control over the data collected by these third-party cookies.

5. Managing Your Preferences

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies.

  • Block all cookies.

  • Delete cookies when the browser is closed.

  • Notify you when a new cookie is set.

Note: If you disable essential cookies, you may not be able to complete a purchase or access certain features of the Site.

GDPR (EU/UK Residents)

If you are visiting from the EU or UK, we will only deploy non-essential (analytics/marketing) cookies if you provide your explicit consent via our cookie banner. You can withdraw your consent at any time.
