Does My Shopify Store Use Cookies?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 6:44 pm

When you visit a website, your browser sends a request to the server hosting the website. The server then responds with the requested information, which is typically HTML code and associated resources like CSS stylesheets and images.

Your browser also sends information about your device, your current location, and your settings. This information is stored in what are called “cookies.” Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device.

When you visit a website that uses cookies, the website will send a request to your browser for each cookie it wants to set. Your browser then decides whether to allow or deny the request.

PRO TIP: If you are not sure whether your Shopify store uses cookies, we recommend that you check with your Shopify account manager. Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer by websites that you visit. They are widely used in order to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site.

If you allow the request, the cookie is stored on your device. The next time you visit the same website, your browser will send the cookie back to the server. This allows the website to remember your preferences and settings.

Cookies are used for many different purposes, including:

– Keeping you logged in to websites and apps
– Remembering your preferences and settings
– Analyzing how you use websites and apps
– Showing you relevant ads

You can control how cookies are used on your device by changing your browser’s privacy settings. You can also delete cookies that have already been set.
