This Cookie Policy explains how stilul-perfect.live ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website at stilul-perfect.live (the "Site"). This policy is designed to help you understand what cookies are, how we use them, the types of cookies we use, the information we collect using cookies, how that information is used, and how you can manage your cookie preferences.

1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, or other device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and give website owners information about how their site is being used. Cookies are typically stored in your browser's directory or subfolder. A cookie usually contains the name of the website from which it came, the "lifetime" of the cookie (how long it will remain on your device), and a value, which is usually a randomly generated unique number.
Cookies can be classified as:
- Session cookies: These are temporary cookies that are erased when you close your browser. They are used to remember your actions during a single browsing session, such as items in a shopping cart or login information.
- Persistent cookies: These remain on your device for a set period of time or until you manually delete them. They are used to remember your preferences and actions across multiple visits to a website.
- First-party cookies: These are set by the website you are visiting (in this case, stilul-perfect.live) and can only be read by that site.
- Third-party cookies: These are set by a domain other than the website you are visiting. If you visit stilul-perfect.live and a separate company sets a cookie through our Site, that is a third-party cookie.
