Cookie Policy — AmoreLetters

1. What are cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet) by websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to the website operator. Similar technologies (pixels, local storage, fingerprinting) may also be used.
2. Our approach
AmoreLetters uses cookies and similar technologies on amoreletters.com to:
- Make the Service work (essential cookies)
- Understand how visitors use the site (analytics, with consent)
- Measure the effectiveness of our advertising (marketing, with consent)
Essential cookies are placed automatically on first visit. Non-essential cookies (analytics, marketing) are activated only after you explicitly consent via our cookie banner.
3. The cookie banner
When you first visit amoreletters.com, a banner appears with three equal-weight options:
- Accept all — enables all categories of cookies
- Reject all — disables all non-essential cookies
- Customise — opens granular settings to enable/disable each category
You can change your preferences at any time by clicking "Cookie Settings" in the footer of the site.

- Meta (Facebook Pixel): facebook.com/privacy/policy
- PayPal: paypal.com/myaccount/privacy/privacyhub (if used at checkout)
6. How to manage cookies
You can manage cookies in several ways:
- From our site: click "Cookie Settings" in the footer to open the consent panel
- From your browser: each browser has settings to view, block, or delete cookies. Note that blocking essential cookies may break parts of the Service
- From third-party opt-out pages:
- Google Analytics: tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
- Meta: facebook.com/ads/preferences
7. Do Not Track
Some browsers transmit "Do Not Track" signals. AmoreLetters honours DNT signals by treating them as a rejection of non-essential cookies.
8. Changes to this Cookie Policy
If we add new cookies or change how we use existing ones, we will update this Policy and ask for fresh consent where required. The "Last updated" date will always reflect the current version.
