Hey! Just like pretty much every other website on the internet, we use cookies here at Soul Ties Fashion to keep things running smoothly and see what kind of content you all actually enjoy reading.
Since your privacy matters, we want to be completely upfront about what these little files are doing behind the scenes.
What even is a cookie?
Think of a cookie as a tiny text file that a website drops onto your computer or phone when you visit. It basically gives the site a short-term memory, remembering things like your preferences, whether you’re logged in, or what you clicked on so you don’t have to re-enter your info every single time you change pages.
The kind of cookies we use
We don’t use anything creepy, but we do rely on a few specific types to keep the blog functional:
-
The essential stuff: These cookies are strictly necessary just to make the site work properly. Without them, basic things like navigating between pages or filling out a contact form can get glitchy.
-
Analytics (The stats): We use tools like Google Analytics to see how people find our blog, which style guides are getting the most love, and where our readers are hanging out. This data is totally anonymous—it just tells us numbers (like “50 people read the shoe guide today”) so we know what to write next.
-
Affiliate & Ad cookies: Because we sometimes link to our favorite fashion brands or use display ads, third-party companies drop cookies to track if you buy something after clicking our links. This lets them know the traffic came from us so we can earn a small commission (at zero extra cost to you).
You are in control
If you aren’t vibing with cookies, you don’t have to keep them. You can easily tweak your browser settings to block or delete cookies whenever you want. Just head into your browser’s settings (usually under “Privacy” or “Security”).
Quick heads up: If you turn off all cookies, some parts of our site—and basically every other site on the web—might act a little weird or not load right.
Got any questions?
