What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your web browser. They help websites remember information about your visit, such as your preferred language or other settings. Similar technologies, such as local storage and pixel tags, may also be used where described below.

How We Use Cookies

We use cookies and similar storage for several purposes, as explained in this policy. Some storage is essential for the catalogue to function; others help us improve your experience or enable optional features.

Essential Cookies

Certain cookies are necessary for the basic operation of the site. These include cookies that remember your session while you browse, maintain your privacy choices, and allow secure access to any account features. Without these cookies, the site cannot function properly. Essential cookies are always set.

Preference Cookies

Preference cookies allow the site to remember choices you make, such as your preferred display settings, text size, or language. These cookies improve your experience by tailoring the interface to your preferences. Where enabled, we may store these locally so your settings persist across visits.

Analytics Cookies

Where enabled, we use analytics cookies to understand how visitors interact with the catalogue. This helps us improve the site's content and usability. The information collected is aggregated and does not directly identify you. We may use first-party analytics services that store data on our behalf.

Advertising Cookies

Where advertisements are displayed on the site, we may use advertising cookies to manage the ads you see. These cookies help prevent the same ad from appearing too often and, where enabled, allow Google advertising technologies to deliver more relevant ads based on your browsing activity. These cookies are third-party cookies set by Google and other advertising partners. If you disable advertising cookies, you will still see ads, but they may be less relevant.

First-Party and Third-Party Cookies

First-party cookies are set by the site you are visiting (feqqe.com). Third-party cookies are set by other domains, such as Google when advertising technologies are in use. We do not control third-party cookies, and their use is governed by the privacy policies of the respective providers.

Session and Persistent Cookies

Session cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. The duration of persistent cookies varies; we do not specify exact durations as they may change. You can manage persistent cookies through your browser settings.

Local Storage

In addition to cookies, we may use local storage to store preferences or other data on your device. Local storage is similar to persistent cookies but can hold more information. Where used, it is subject to the same choices you make regarding cookies.

Your Choices and Consent

When you first visit the site, you will be presented with a cookie consent notice where you can accept or decline non-essential cookies. Essential cookies cannot be declined. If you later wish to change your preferences, you can do so through the cookie settings link available on the site. Withdrawing consent for optional cookies will not affect the basic functionality of the catalogue.

Browser Controls

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can block or delete cookies, and set preferences for certain sites. Please note that disabling all cookies, including essential ones, may impair the site's functionality. For detailed instructions, consult your browser's help documentation.

Practical Effects of Disabling Storage

If you disable essential cookies, the site may not load properly, and you may be unable to access certain features such as account login or persistent settings. Disabling analytics cookies means we will not be able to collect data to improve the site. Disabling advertising cookies may result in less relevant advertisements but will not stop ads from appearing.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page, and your continued use of the site after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
