Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Severedwing uses cookies and similar technologies on www.severedwing.com (the "Site"). It supplements our Privacy Policy, which describes more broadly how we handle personal information.

1. What Cookies Are

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit. They allow the site to remember your actions and preferences, such as the contents of your shopping cart, so you do not have to re-enter them each time you return or move between pages. Similar technologies, including pixels and local storage, serve related purposes, and we refer to all of them as "cookies" in this policy.

Cookies may be "session" cookies, which expire when you close your browser, or "persistent" cookies, which remain on your device for a set period. They may be set by us ("first-party cookies") or by services we use ("third-party cookies").

2. Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are required for the Site to function. They power core features such as:

• Keeping items in your shopping cart as you browse

• Completing secure checkout and processing payment

• Maintaining your session if you sign in

• Protecting the Site against fraud and abuse

Because the Site cannot operate without them, essential cookies cannot be switched off through our cookie banner. You can block them in your browser, but parts of the Site, including checkout, will not work if you do.

3. Functional Cookies

Functional cookies remember choices you make so the Site works more smoothly for you, such as your region, preferences, and whether you have already dismissed certain notices. Disabling them will not break the Site, but some conveniences will be lost.

4. Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the Site: which pages are visited, which products draw interest, and where visitors encounter problems. We use Squarespace Analytics for this purpose. The information these cookies collect is aggregated and used only to improve the Site, as described in Section 7 of our Privacy Policy.

5. Browser Controls

Every major browser lets you view, delete, and block cookies through its settings, either for all sites or site by site. Instructions are available in your browser's help menu, typically under "Privacy" or "Cookies." Note that blocking all cookies will prevent checkout from functioning on this Site and most others.

Your browser may also offer a "Do Not Track" or "Global Privacy Control" signal. Where an applicable law requires us to honor such signals, we do so.

6. Consent and Your Choices

When you first visit the Site, a cookie banner explains our use of cookies and offers you a choice about non-essential cookies. You can select “Accept all,” “Decline all,” or “Manage cookies,” and you can change your preferences at any time through the Cookie Preferences control on the Site, by adjusting your browser controls, or by contacting us at hello@severedwing.com.

Declining non-essential cookies will not affect your ability to browse or shop.

7. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies on the Site are set by third parties whose services we use:

• Squarespace, our ecommerce platform, sets cookies necessary to host and secure the Site

• Payment processing services used through Squarespace Payments may set cookies during checkout to process payment securely and prevent fraud

• Squarespace Analytics sets the analytics cookies described in Section 4

These third parties operate under their own privacy and cookie policies, which we encourage you to review. We do not control the cookies they set.

8. Changes and Contact

We may update this Cookie Policy as our practices or the technologies we use change, and we will revise the Effective Date when we do. Questions may be sent to hello@severedwing.com.
