Cookie Policy
Last updated September 22, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how The Parisialite (“we,” “us,” and “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit theparisialite.com (the “Website”).
This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
1. WHAT ARE COOKIES?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer, phone, tablet, or other device when you visit a website.
Cookies and similar technologies can be used for many purposes, including making a website function correctly, remembering your preferences, understanding how visitors use a website, measuring performance, and delivering or measuring advertising.
Similar technologies may include pixels, tags, scripts, local storage, and other technologies that collect or store information on your device. In this Cookie Policy, we refer to these technologies collectively as “cookies.”
2. HOW DO WE USE COOKIES?
We may use first-party cookies, which are set by The Parisialite, and third-party cookies, which are set by services that we use on our Website.
The cookies used on our Website may fall into the following categories.
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the Website to operate and provide services that you request.
They may be used for purposes such as:
- maintaining the security and functionality of the Website;
- remembering your privacy and cookie choices;
- enabling shopping-cart and checkout functionality;
- processing transactions;
- preventing fraud or abuse; and
- providing other features that are necessary for the Website to work.
Because these cookies are necessary to provide the Website or a service that you have requested, they may not require your consent where permitted by applicable law.
Analytics and Performance Cookies
We may use analytics technologies to understand how visitors find and use our Website.
These technologies may collect information such as:
- pages viewed;
- time spent on the Website;
- referring websites or sources;
- browser and device information;
- approximate location derived from an IP address; and
- interactions with pages and features.
We use this information to understand our audience, measure Website performance, identify technical problems, and improve our content and services.
We may use third-party analytics providers, including Google Analytics.
Where required by applicable law, analytics cookies that are not exempt from consent requirements will only be used after you have provided the appropriate consent.
Advertising Cookies
We work with Mediavine and its advertising partners to display advertising on the Website.
Advertising partners may use cookies and similar technologies to deliver, measure, personalize, and report on advertising, subject to your consent and the privacy laws that apply to you.
For visitors in regions where consent is required, Mediavine’s Consent Management Platform may ask you to make choices about advertising cookies and the processing of information for advertising purposes.
If you reject advertising consent, you may still see advertising, but the ads may be contextual rather than personalized.
The advertising technologies and vendors used on the Website may change over time as advertising partners and their technology change.
Affiliate and Referral Technologies
Some links on The Parisialite are affiliate links.
When you click an affiliate link, the retailer, affiliate network, or other partner may use cookies or similar technologies to identify that your visit or purchase originated from The Parisialite. This allows us to receive a commission on qualifying purchases, at no additional cost to you.
Our affiliate relationships may include platforms, retailers, and affiliate networks such as ShopMy, Amazon Associates, Awin, and other partners that we may work with from time to time.
The cookies used by these third parties are governed by their own privacy and cookie practices.
E-commerce and Payment Technologies
When you purchase a product or service through our Website, cookies and similar technologies may be used to provide shopping-cart and checkout functionality, process your transaction, prevent fraud, and remember information necessary to complete your purchase.
Our Website uses WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality. Payment processing may be provided by third-party payment providers such as Stripe and PayPal.
Payment providers may process information according to their own privacy policies.
Email and Marketing Technologies
We may use technologies associated with our email marketing, newsletter, forms, or other marketing services to understand whether visitors subscribe, interact with forms, or engage with communications.
Depending on the service and your choices, these technologies may be provided by services we use for email marketing, newsletters, forms, or audience communication.
Where consent is required by applicable law, non-essential marketing cookies or trackers will only be used after the appropriate consent has been obtained.
Embedded Content and Third-Party Services
Some pages may contain content or functionality provided by third parties.
For example, the Website may include embedded media, social media features, forms, shopping widgets, affiliate widgets, or other third-party content.
These third parties may use cookies or similar technologies when you interact with their services. Their use of information is governed by their respective privacy policies.
3. HOW CAN YOU MANAGE YOUR COOKIE PREFERENCES?
Where required by applicable law, you will be given the opportunity to accept, reject, or manage non-essential cookies through the consent controls displayed on our Website.
You can change or withdraw your choices at any time using the Manage Preferences or similar privacy link available on the Website.
Rejecting non-essential cookies will not prevent you from accessing the general content of The Parisialite, although certain features or personalized services may work differently.
You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, delete, or block cookies.
Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the Website.
4. HOW LONG DO COOKIES LAST?
Cookies may be either session cookies or persistent cookies.
Session cookies generally expire when you close your browser.
Persistent cookies remain on your device for a specified period or until you delete them.
The duration of a particular cookie depends on its purpose and the provider that sets it. Third-party providers may change their cookies and retention periods from time to time.
Where a consent-management tool provides more detailed information about individual cookies, vendors, purposes, or retention periods, you can use that tool to review the most current information and manage your preferences.
5. THIRD-PARTY COOKIES
Some cookies and similar technologies on our Website are controlled by third parties rather than The Parisialite.
These third parties may process information collected through their technologies in accordance with their own privacy policies and legal obligations.
The third-party services used on our Website may change as we update our Website, advertising partners, analytics tools, affiliate relationships, payment providers, and other services.
6. YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS
Depending on where you live, you may have rights concerning the collection and use of your personal information.
For more information about how we collect and process personal information, the legal bases we rely on, how long we retain information, international data transfers, and the privacy rights available to you, please review our Privacy Policy.
7. UPDATES TO THIS COOKIE POLICY
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the cookies and technologies we use, changes to our business practices, or changes in applicable laws and regulations.
When we update this Cookie Policy, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page.
We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy periodically to stay informed about our use of cookies and similar technologies.
