Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Dhokra Handicrafts uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website. It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

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.

2. Why do we use cookies?

Essential browser storage supports your cart, sign-in, saved favourites and cookie choices. Optional analytics through Google Analytics, Google Merchant Center and Shopify checkout, and Meta advertising on this website, are off until you choose to enable them. Refusing either optional category does not prevent shopping.

• Essential storage: Cart and sign-in identifiers, saved favourites and your cookie preferences. We use browser storage as well as cookies.
• Analytics and shopping performance: Allows Google Analytics, Google Merchant Center and Shopify analytics to measure visits, product-listing performance and checkout. Our shared Google tag sends website activity, such as page views and engagement, to Analytics and Merchant Center. Website cart events are directed to Analytics. Google advertising personalization and signals remain off on this website.
• Meta advertising: Helps measure Facebook and Instagram advertising and supports relevant advertising on this website. It does not enable Shopify checkout marketing or subscribe you to email or SMS.

3. How can I control cookies?

Use Cookie settings in the footer to accept, reject or choose optional categories at any time. Choices are saved in this browser for up to 180 days. If browser storage is blocked, your choice applies to the current visit and we may ask again on a later visit.

Withdrawing consent stops future tracking by this site and removes accessible first-party Google Analytics or Meta cookies for the rejected category. It does not delete information already received by providers. Your browser offers additional cookie and storage controls; blocking essential storage can affect cart or sign-in persistence.

We pass your current analytics choice to Shopify when preparing your checkout link. Optional checkout preferences, marketing and sale or sharing of data are passed as declined. Essential checkout and payment processing remain necessary to place an order. Changing your choice refreshes the link before you can use it again; if that refresh fails, use Refresh cart.

A checkout already open in another tab is not updated by this website. Use its privacy controls or return here and open checkout again after changing your choice. Shopify and payment providers also have their own controls and policies. Because our analytics choice now explicitly includes Google Merchant Center alongside Google Analytics and Shopify checkout, earlier cookie choices are not automatically reused; please make a fresh choice. Obsolete optional choices are removed without clearing your cart, account or saved favourites.

4. Changes to this Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Please therefore re-visit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.
