Cookie Policy

This policy explains what cookies and browser storage our website uses, why we use them, and how you can control them.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. We also use localStorage, a similar browser feature that stores data locally on your device without an expiry date unless cleared. Both are used to make the site work properly and to improve your experience.

What We Use and Why

Strictly Necessary

These are required for core site functionality and cannot be disabled.

cartIdlocalStorageSaves your Shopify shopping cart so your items persist between visits and page loads.Until cart is cleared

Functional

These improve your experience but are not strictly required for the site to work.

NameTypePurposeDuration

pt-voter-emaillocalStorageSaves your email address after your first vote so it's pre-filled if you vote for another card.Until browser storage is cleared

These third parties have their own privacy policies governing how they handle data collected through their cookies:

How to Control Cookies

You can manage or delete cookies and localStorage data through your browser settings at any time. Note that disabling strictly necessary storage (like cartId) will prevent your shopping cart from persisting between visits.

Most browsers allow you to:

  • View and delete stored cookies and localStorage data
  • Block third-party cookies
  • Set your browser to notify you when cookies are set

For instructions specific to your browser, visit your browser's help documentation.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this cookie policy as our site evolves. Any changes will be posted here with an updated date at the top.
