Last updated November 10, 2025

This Cookie Policy explains how Paloma Feijoo ("Company," "we," "us," and "our") uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website at https://www.palomafeijoo.com ("Website"). It explains what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control our use of them.

In some cases we may use cookies to collect personal information, or information that becomes personal if we combine it with other information.

WHAT ARE COOKIES?

Cookies are small data files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Website owners use cookies to make their websites work more efficiently and to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Paloma Feijoo) are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable features or functionality provided by third parties (such as analytics and interactive content). The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognise your computer both when it visits our Website and when it visits certain other websites.

WHY DO WE USE COOKIES?

We use first-party and third-party cookies for several reasons:

  • Essential cookies: Required for technical reasons for our Website to operate (such as security and access to certain features)

  • Analytics cookies: Help us understand how our Website is being used and how we can improve the user experience

  • Functionality cookies: Enable enhanced functionality and personalisation

Third parties serve cookies through our Website for analytics and other purposes as described below.

HOW CAN I CONTROL COOKIES?

OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES

Web Beacons

We may use web beacons (also called "tracking pixels" or "clear gifs") in addition to cookies. These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier enabling us to recognise when someone has visited our Website or opened an email. This allows us to monitor traffic patterns, deliver or communicate with cookies, understand whether you've come from an online advertisement, improve site performance, and measure email marketing success.

In many instances, web beacons rely on cookies to function properly, so declining cookies will impair their functioning.

Flash Cookies (Local Shared Objects)

Websites may use "Flash Cookies" (also known as Local Shared Objects or "LSOs") to collect and store information about your use of services, fraud prevention, and other site operations.

If you don't want Flash Cookies stored on your computer, you can adjust your Flash player settings:
