5. Detailed Information About Third-Party Cookies
Because we use advertising and affiliate services, third parties may set cookies when you visit FashionVella.com.
5.1 Google AdSense & Advertising Partners
We use Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google and its partners use cookies to:
- Serve ads based on your prior visits to our website and other sites.
- Limit the number of times you see an ad (frequency capping).
- Measure ad performance and engagement.
- Build an advertising profile about you.
Google’s Role: Google may use cookies such as the IDE cookie (for DoubleClick) and the NID cookie for ad personalization.
Opt-out: You can manage your ad preferences through Google Ad Settings. You may also opt out of personalized advertising from participating companies via the Network Advertising Initiative or Your Online Choices.
5.2 Affiliate Marketing
FashionVella participates in affiliate marketing programs. This means some of our links to fashion retailers or products are affiliate links. When you click an affiliate link, the retailer or affiliate network may place a cookie on your device to:
- Identify that you were referred from our website.
- Track any purchases you make during a specific window (commonly 24 hours to 30 days, depending on the program).
- Attribute commissions to us.
Important: These cookies are set by third-party retailers (e.g., Amazon, ASOS, Nordstrom) or affiliate networks, not by us directly. We do not control the data practices of these third parties. Please review their respective privacy and cookie policies for more information.
5.3 Analytics Providers
We use analytics services (such as Google Analytics) to understand how visitors engage with our content. These services may set cookies to collect information like your IP address (often anonymized), browser type, pages visited, and time spent on site.
