Cookie Policy

OUR USE OF COOKIES

When you visit The Story Weavers (TSW) website, we will use cookies to give you the best experience on our web properties. Cookies are small text files stored on your device. The information collected does not usually directly identify you; oftentimes, the information is tied to a cookie ID, advertising ID, IP address, or similar online/device identifier.

​

The specific types of cookies served through our website and the purposes they perform are described below.

​

STRICTLY NECESSARY COOKIES
These cookies are necessary for TSW sites to function or to enable our affiliate program, and cannot be switched off in our systems. They do not store any personally identifiable information.

​

These cookies are set in response to actions made by you, which amount to a request for services (e.g., submitting a TSW site URL into your browser or clicking an affiliate link to one of our landing pages).

​

They ensure the proper technical functioning of such service (e.g., carrying out necessary transmissions over the internet, ensuring proper attribution to affiliates who have referred you, showing a website version that has a broadband-related data quantity corresponding to that of your internet connection, changing from http to https as appropriate, etc.).

​

MORE INFORMATION ON AFFILIATE PROGRAM COOKIES

Where you have landed on one of our pages due to a link provided by our trusted affiliates, a cookie is set by our referral marketing provider as necessary for the affiliate to get credit for referring you and for you to get any bonuses or rewards that the affiliate may have offered you for following their referral link. These cookies are called ‘third-party’ cookies since they are set by our affiliate marketing platform. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising and may not receive special extras, promotions, or bonuses.

​

SOCIAL MEDIA COOKIES
These cookies are set by a range of social media services that we have added to the site to enable you to share our content with virtually. They are capable of tracking your browser across other sites and building up a profile of your interests. This may impact the content and messages you see on other websites you visit.  If you do not allow these cookies you may not be able to use or see these sharing tools.

​
