This Cookies Policy explains how Lovely Finds (“we”, “us”, or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on our website, https://lovelyfinds.gr.
It explains what cookies are, why they are used, the categories of cookies that may be placed on your device, and how you can manage your preferences.
This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites store on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other device when you visit them.
Cookies help websites remember information about your visit, maintain essential functions, improve user experience, and, where permitted, analyse website performance or support advertising activities.
Some cookies are deleted when you close your browser (session cookies), while others remain on your device for a specified period (persistent cookies).
Cookies may be placed directly by our website (first-party cookies) or by third-party service providers (third-party cookies).
3. Categories of Cookies We Use
Depending on the services and technologies enabled on our website, we may use the following categories of cookies.

- Supporting customer account login and authentication.
- Maintaining website security.
- Remembering your cookie consent preferences.
- Supporting essential payment and order-processing functions.
Our website operates using WordPress and WooCommerce, which may use cookies necessary for shopping cart and checkout functionality.
Strictly necessary cookies do not require prior consent where they meet the conditions of applicable law.

We may use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to collect statistical information about website usage.

Analytics cookies and non-essential analytics technologies are used only where the required consent has been obtained.
3.3 Marketing and Advertising Cookies
Marketing cookies and similar technologies may be used to measure advertising effectiveness, understand customer interests, and display more relevant promotional content.
Depending on the services enabled, they may support:
- Advertising campaign measurement.
- Remarketing and audience creation.
- Conversion tracking.
- Personalised advertising.
- Understanding interactions with promotional campaigns.
These technologies may involve third-party advertising providers, including Google, where their services are enabled.
Marketing and advertising cookies are not activated before the required consent has been obtained.
3.4 Functional and Personalisation Cookies
Functional cookies may support optional features that improve the browsing experience, such as remembering selected preferences or enabling additional website functionality.
Personalisation technologies may also be used to adapt certain website content or recommendations based on user preferences and interactions.
Where these technologies are not strictly necessary, they are activated only with the required consent.
4. Cookies Used by WooCommerce
Our online store is built using WooCommerce.
WooCommerce may use essential cookies to maintain the shopping cart and checkout process.
Examples include:

These are examples of commonly used WooCommerce cookies. Their actual presence and duration depend on the website configuration.
Other cookies may be used for account authentication, security, language preferences, or essential WordPress functionality.
5. Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager
Where enabled, we may use Google Analytics 4 to understand website traffic, customer interactions, and the performance of our online store.
Google Analytics may use cookies such as _ga and related identifiers, depending on the implemented configuration.
We may also use Google Tag Manager to manage analytics, conversion tracking, and other website tags.
Where consent is required, the relevant non-essential tags and technologies must respect your cookie preferences.
