WME Fashion, which is owned and operated by IMG Worldwide, LLC, is committed to protecting and respecting your privacy as described in our Privacy Policy, of which this Cookie Policy forms a part. This Cookie Policy applies to this website, as well as any other channel or website that links directly to this policy (collectively, the “Website”). This Cookie Policy does not apply to, and we are not responsible for, the privacy practices of third-party websites which may be linked to the Website.
WHAT IS A COOKIE AND HOW DO WE USE THEM?
Cookies are small pieces of text. They are provided by most websites and stored by your web browser on the computer, phone, or other device that you are using. Cookies allow the Website to “remember” your actions or preferences over time. For more information see: https://www.allaboutcookies.org/.
A cookie can be classified by its lifespan and the domain to which it belongs. As to lifespan, a cookie is either:
- a session cookie, which is erased when you close the browser or leave a website, or
- a persistent cookie, which remains on your computer/device for a period of time, determined by the party that set the cookie or until you delete it. These cookies may also be called tracking cookies.
As for the domain to which a cookie belongs, a cookie may be:
- a first-party cookie, which is set by the web server of the web page the user is visiting, or
- a third-party cookie, which is set by a different domain (this can happen when a web page references a file located outside its domain).
Cookies and similar technologies do not require your consent when they are strictly necessary to provide services to you—for example, when a cookie is used to provide required data protection to secure our Website, or to keep track of your selections or input, such as for an online shopping cart, a form you are filling out, or language preferences.
TYPES OF COOKIES WE USE
Strictly Necessary: These cookies are necessary for the Website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the site will not then work.
Analytics and Performance: We make use of analytic cookies to analyze how our visitors use our Website and to monitor Website performance. This allows us to provide a high-quality experience by customizing our offering and quickly identifying and fixing any issues that arise. For example, we might use performance cookies to keep track of which pages are most popular, which method of linking between pages is most effective, and to determine why some pages are receiving error messages. We might also use these cookies to highlight site services that we think will be of interest to you based on your usage of the Website.
Website Functionality: These cookies enable the Website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third party providers whose services we have added to our pages. For example, to remember choices you make (language or the region you are in), or to recognize the platform from which you access the Website, and to provide enhanced and more personal features. If you do not allow these cookies, then some or all of these services may not function properly. These cookies are not used to track your browsing on other sites.
Advertising: Advertising cookies are used to collect information about the browsing habits associated with your device and are used to make advertising more relevant to you and your interests. These cookies may be set through our site by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other sites. They do not store directly personal information but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.
REFUSING OR DELETING COOKIES
Most internet browsers are set up by default to accept cookies. However, if you want to refuse or delete any cookies (or similar technologies), please refer to the help and support area on your internet browser for instructions on how to block or delete cookies. Please note, you may not be able to take advantage of all the features of websites, including certain personalized features, if you delete or refuse cookies.
It is also possible, via relevant browser or device features, to delete previously stored cookies. Cookies in the browser’s local memory may be cleared by deleting the browsing history.
