Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar technologies (like local storage) karenmariaglobal.com uses, why, and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

Essential (Strictly Necessary)

When you accept or reject cookies, we remember your choice using your browser's local storage rather than a traditional cookie. This is strictly necessary so we do not ask you again on every visit, and it does not require your consent under the ePrivacy rules that also cover local storage.

Analytics Cookies

If you click Accept on our cookie banner, we load Google Analytics. Google Analytics sets cookies such as _ga, _ga_<container-id>, and _gid to distinguish visitors and measure how the Site is used (pages viewed, time on site, general location from IP address). These cookies are not set if you click Reject, and Google Analytics does not load at all until you accept.

If you previously accepted and later change your mind, we delete the Google Analytics cookies already set and stop loading Google Analytics on future page views.

Cookieless Performance Monitoring

We use Vercel Web Analytics and Vercel Speed Insights to understand overall traffic and page performance. These do not use cookies and do not track you individually across sites, so they run regardless of your cookie choice.

Third-Party Links

Buttons that open WhatsApp, Instagram, or Facebook take you to services operated by Meta, which may set their own cookies once you are on their site or app. Those cookies are covered by the relevant third party's own cookie and privacy policies, not this one.

Managing Your Choice

You can change your cookie choice at any time using the button below, or via “Cookie Preferences” in the footer of any page. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings, though this may affect how some websites function.
