What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device (computer, tablet, or phone) when you visit. They are widely used to make websites work properly, remember your preferences, and provide information to website owners about how their site is being used. Cookies set by the website you are visiting are called “first-party cookies.” Cookies set by other companies (such as analytics or advertising providers) are called “third-party cookies.”
How Hobby Box Uses Cookies
We use cookies to make our website function correctly, to understand how visitors use our site so we can improve it, and — where you have given consent — to measure the effectiveness of our marketing. Below is a breakdown of the types of cookies we use.
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the website to work and cannot be switched off. They are set in response to actions you take, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, adding items to your cart, or proceeding through checkout. Without these cookies, the site cannot function. They do not store any personally identifiable information.
Examples of what these cookies do: keep your shopping cart intact as you browse; remember that you are logged into your account; ensure the checkout process works securely; remember your cookie consent preferences.
Analytics and Performance Cookies
These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website — which pages are visited most, how visitors move through the site, and whether they encounter any errors. All data collected is aggregated and anonymous; it cannot be used to identify you individually. We use this information to improve our site and make it work better for everyone.
We may use Google Analytics for this purpose. Google Analytics sets cookies that collect information including your IP address (anonymized), browser type, device type, pages visited, and time spent on the site. You can opt out of Google Analytics across all websites by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Marketing and Advertising Cookies
We may use marketing cookies to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns, including through services such as Google Ads and Meta (Facebook/Instagram). These cookies track whether you visited our site after seeing one of our ads, and help us understand which campaigns are working. They do not store your payment or personal order information.
These cookies are only set with your consent where required by applicable law.
Third-Party Cookies
Some pages on our site embed content or tools from third parties, including Google Maps (on our Contact page) and Stripe (at checkout). These services may set their own cookies governed by their own privacy policies. We do not control these cookies. Stripe’s cookie and privacy policy is available at stripe.com/privacy. Google’s policy is available at policies.google.com/privacy.
How to Control Cookies
You can control and manage cookies in several ways. All modern browsers allow you to view, delete, and block cookies through their settings. Please note that blocking strictly necessary cookies will prevent our website from functioning correctly — features like the shopping cart, account login, and checkout will not work.
To manage cookies in your browser: in Chrome, go to Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and other site data. In Firefox, go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data. In Safari, go to Preferences > Privacy. In Edge, go to Settings > Cookies and site permissions.
You can also opt out of interest-based advertising through the Digital Advertising Alliance at optout.aboutads.info or the Network Advertising Initiative at optout.networkadvertising.org.
Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. The updated version will always be posted on this page with the date it was last updated.
