Our Use Of Cookies
Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookie are widely used by website owners in order to make their website work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.
Cookies set by the owner (in this case, Sliced Ginger) are called “first party cookies.” Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called “third party cookies.” Third party cookies enable third party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., advertising, and analytics). The parties that set these third party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.
We use first 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 through our website for advertising, analytics and other purposes.
The Types Of Cookies Used
Our website uses performance and functionality cookies. They are considered non-essential but greatly enhance the performance and functionality of the site. Without these cookies, certain functionality may become unavailable.
Our website also uses analytic and customization 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, or to help us customize our website for you.
Other Tacking Technologies
Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We may use other, similar technologies from time to time like web beacons. These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enables us to recognize when someone has visited a website or opened an email including them. This allows us, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within a website to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to the website from an online advertisement displayed on a third party website, to improve performance and to measure the success of campaigns. In many cases these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and so by rejecting cookies will impair their functionality.
Targeted Advertising
Third parties may serve on your computer or mobile device to serve through advertising through our website. These companies may use information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services that you may be interested in. They may also employ technology that is used to measure the effectiveness of advertisements. They can accomplish this by using cookies or web beacons to collect information about your visits to this and other sites in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services of potential interest to you. The information collected through this process does not enable us or them to identify your name, contact details, or other details that directly identify you.
Other sites accessible through our site via links or otherwise have their own policies in regards to privacy. We are not responsible for the privacy policies or practices of third parties.
Please see our Disclosure for information regarding affiliate and sponsored posts.

The Transactional Data may include your contact details, your card details and the transaction details. The transaction data may be processed for the purpose of supplying the purchased goods and services and keeping proper records of those transactions. Payment processing on our Site is handled by our payment services providers, Stripe and PayPal. We will share transaction data with our payment services providers only to the extent necessary for the purposes of processing your payments, refunding such payments and dealing with complaints and queries relating to such payments and refunds. You can find information about the payment services providers’ privacy policies and practices at WooCommerce.
Security
We aim to protect your personal information through a system of organizational and technical security measures from unauthorized access, misuse, or disclosure. However, no exchange of data over the Internet can be guaranteed as 100% secure. While we make every effort to protect your personal information shared with us through our Site, you acknowledge that the personal information you voluntarily share with us through this Site could be accessed or tampered with by a third party. You agree that we are not responsible for any intercepted information shared through our Site without our knowledge or permission. Additionally, you release us from any and all claims arising out of or related to the use of such intercepted information in any unauthorized manner.
Data Storage
We keep your information only so long as we need it to provide service to you, to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, or as long as you have an account with us. This is also the case for anyone that we share your information with and who carries out services on our behalf. When we no longer need to use your information and there is no need for us to keep it to comply with our legal or regulatory obligations, we’ll either remove it from our systems or depersonalize it so that we can’t identify you.
