Cookie Policy
This policy explains how the VANGUARD FURNISHINGS LLC website (“Site”) uses cookies, local storage, and similar technologies, and how you can manage your choices. It supplements our Privacy Policy and meets EU ePrivacy, GDPR, and Google’s EU User Consent Policy disclosure requirements.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We use local storage (e.g. vanguard_furnishings_cookie_consent_v1) to remember your cookie choices so we do not ask again on every visit.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
| Type | Purpose | Consent required? |
|---|---|---|
| Essential cookies / storage | Site security and cookie banner state | No (always used) |
| Analytics cookies | Traffic and performance metrics (e.g. Google Analytics, only if you consent) | Yes |
| Marketing cookies | Not currently used; this table will be updated if we enable Google Ads | Yes |
2.1 Google Services and Consent Mode
If you consent to analytics cookies, we may collect anonymous usage data via tools such as Google Analytics. We reserve Google Consent Mode v2 signals (analytics_storage, ad_storage, etc.) so Google tags send personalized data only after consent. See Google’s consent mode documentation.
3. Managing Cookies
- On first visit, use the banner to choose “Accept all,” “Essential only,” or “Customize”;
- Click Manage cookie preferences in the footer anytime to change your choice;
- You may block or clear cookies in Chrome or other browser settings (some site features may not work).
4. Third-Party Cookies
Cookies from CDNs (e.g. Bootstrap, font providers) are typically required for technical delivery. Embedded third-party content (e.g. videos) may set their own cookies under their privacy policies.
5. Updates
We may update this policy for technical or legal changes. The effective date at the top will be revised accordingly.
