Cookie Policy

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels, and SDKs. Essential Protection Films (“EPF”) uses these technologies to run our store, remember preferences, understand traffic, and (with your consent where required) support marketing.

2. Types of Cookies We Use

• Strictly necessary — required for security, load balancing, cart/checkout, consent storage, and core site functions. These do not require consent but are always on.
• Functional / preferences — remember settings such as region or UI choices.
• Analytics — help us understand how visitors use the site (pages, funnels, errors) so we can improve performance and UX.
• Marketing — used to measure campaigns and, where enabled, deliver more relevant ads across sites. You can reject these.

3. Examples

Examples of cookies and storage we may use (names may vary as vendors update):

• epf_cookie_consent — stores your cookie choices (necessary).
• Session / cart storage — maintains bag contents, checkout state, and fulfillment choice (ship vs pickup / selected pickup point) (necessary).
• Authentication tokens — keeps you signed in securely (necessary).
• Analytics IDs (if enabled) — aggregated usage measurement (analytics).
• Ad / remarketing tags (if enabled) — campaign measurement (marketing).

4. Your Choices

When you first visit, our cookie banner lets you Accept all, Reject non-essential, or Manage preferences. You can change your mind anytime via “Cookie settings” in the site footer.

You may also control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may break cart, checkout, or login.

If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, we honor it by keeping analytics and marketing cookies off.

5. U.S. Privacy Note

Under California and similar state privacy laws, certain advertising technologies may involve disclosures that those laws regulate. Use Cookie settings, our Do Not Sell or Share page, or email privacy@essentialppf.com. See our Privacy Policy for your rights.

6. Updates

We may update this Cookie Policy when our practices or vendors change. The “Last updated” date at the top of the page will reflect the latest version.
