1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small data files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by online service providers to (i) make their websites work, or work more efficiently, and (ii) provide reporting information. Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Ecommerce SEO Agency) 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 (such as analytics, advertising, and interactive content) to be provided on or through the website.

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our site, including which pages are visited most often, how long users stay, and what content resonates. We use tools like Google Analytics and Hotjar to collect and analyze this data to improve site performance and user experience.

c) Functionality Cookies

Functionality cookies allow the website to remember user choices (such as your preferred language or region) and provide enhanced, more personalized features.
