This Cookie Policy explains how Goldcoaststar (“we”, “us”, and “our”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to recognize you when you visit our website at goldcoaststar.com. It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

By continuing to use our website, you agree to the storage and access of cookies as described in this policy.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners in order to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

• First-Party Cookies: These are cookies set by Goldcoaststar directly. They are mostly used for essential site functions.
• Third-Party Cookies: These are set by parties other than us (such as Google or PayPal). Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., interactive content and analytics).

2. Why Does Goldcoaststar Use Cookies?

We use first-party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our website to operate, and we refer to these as “essential” or “strictly necessary” cookies. Other cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our online store.

3. Categories of Cookies We Use
4. Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary to provide you with services available through our website and to use some of its features, such as access to secure areas.

• Use Case: Remembering items in your shopping cart, ensuring the security of the checkout process, and maintaining your session.
• Can they be disabled? No, as the website cannot function properly without them.

1. Performance and Analytics Cookies

These cookies collect information that is used either in aggregate form to help us understand how our website is being used or how effective our marketing campaigns are.

• Use Case: Identifying which pages are popular, how much time visitors spend on the site, and if users encounter any error messages.
• Provider: We primarily use Google Analytics for this purpose.

1. Functionality Cookies

These cookies are used to enhance the performance and functionality of our website but are non-essential to its use.

• Use Case: Remembering your login details, your language preference, or the region you are browsing from so you don’t have to re-enter info on every visit.

1. Advertising and Targeting Cookies

These cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to you. They perform functions like preventing the same ad from continuously reappearing and ensuring that ads are properly displayed for advertisers.

• Use Case: Tracking the effectiveness of our ads on platforms like Google or Meta.

4. Third-Party Tracking Technologies

In addition to our own cookies, we may use third-party cookies to report usage statistics of the service or deliver advertisements.

• Payment Processors: When you pay via PayPal or major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Discover), these third parties may use cookies to ensure the transaction is secure and to prevent fraud.
• Social Media: Social media pixels (like the Meta Pixel) may be used to track visitors to our site for marketing purposes.

5. How Can You Control Cookies?

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies.

• Browser Controls: You can typically find these settings in the ‘Options’ or ‘Preferences’ menu of your browser (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or Edge).
• Mobile Controls: You can manage cookies on your mobile device through the device settings.
• Consequences of Disabling: Please note that if you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our website, though your access to some functionality and areas of our website (like the shopping cart or checkout) may be severely restricted.
