Cookie Policy

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device by websites that you visit. They are widely used in order to make websites work efficiently, to improve the user experience, and to provide information to the owners of the site. Cookies are not programs and cannot execute code, deliver viruses, or extract personal information from your device independently.

In addition to cookies, we may use similar tracking technologies such as web beacons, pixel tags, local storage objects, and session storage. References to "cookies" in this Cookie Policy generally apply to all such technologies unless otherwise specified.

2. Categories of Cookies We Use

We categorize the cookies used on krysalithengine.com into four types based on their function and whether they are set by us or by third parties. These categories are described below:

3. Specific Cookies in Use

The table below details the specific cookies currently deployed on krysalithengine.com, their purpose, provider, and duration. This list is reviewed and updated periodically to reflect any changes to our technology stack or third-party integrations.

3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

3.2 Performance & Analytics Cookies

3.3 Functional Cookies

4. First-Party and Third-Party Cookies

Cookies set directly by krysalithengine.com are referred to as first-party cookies. Cookies set by domains other than our own — such as those set by Google Analytics or Shopify's infrastructure — are referred to as third-party cookies. We do not control the setting of third-party cookies and you should refer to the privacy and cookie policies of those third parties for information on how they use the data they collect.

The third-party services currently integrated with our site are:

• Shopify Inc. — Our e-commerce and website infrastructure provider, based in Ottawa, Canada. Shopify's privacy policy is available at shopify.com/legal/privacy
• Google LLC — Provider of Google Analytics, used for aggregate website traffic analysis. Google's privacy policy is available at policies.google.com/privacy

5. Session Cookies vs. Persistent Cookies

Cookies can be classified by their duration:

5.1 Session Cookies

Session cookies are temporary and are deleted from your device automatically when you close your browser. They are used to maintain continuity within a single browsing session, such as keeping you logged in as you navigate between pages, and do not persist between visits.

5.2 Persistent Cookies

Persistent cookies remain on your device for a defined period of time, or until you delete them manually. They allow the site to recognize you on return visits and may be used to remember your preferences, analyze patterns in your use of the site over time, or maintain your consent preferences. The duration of each persistent cookie we use is specified in the table in Section 3.

6. Your Consent and How We Obtain It

Where required by applicable law, we obtain your consent before placing non-essential cookies on your device. When you first visit our site, you will be presented with a cookie consent notice that allows you to accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or manage your preferences by category. Your preference is recorded in a strictly necessary cookie named kr_cookie_consent and will be respected for a period of twelve months from the date of your choice.

Strictly necessary cookies do not require your consent as they are essential to the operation of the site. However, we remain transparent about their use in this policy.

7. Managing Cookies Through Your Browser

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can configure your browser to refuse all cookies, accept only first-party cookies, or to alert you when a cookie is being set. The exact mechanism varies by browser. Instructions for the most common browsers are provided below:

Please note that restricting cookies may impact your experience on our site and may prevent certain features from functioning correctly. If you use multiple browsers or devices, you will need to adjust cookie settings on each one individually.

8. Opt-Out of Analytics Tracking

In addition to browser-level controls, you may opt out of Google Analytics tracking specifically by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. This add-on instructs the Google Analytics JavaScript to prohibit sending information about your visit to Google Analytics servers.

You may also opt out of interest-based advertising from Google and many other participating companies through the Digital Advertising Alliance at optout.aboutads.info or the Network Advertising Initiative at optout.networkadvertising.org. Note that opting out of advertising-related cookies does not mean you will no longer see advertisements; it means the advertisements you see will not be personalized based on your inferred interests.

9. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that sends a signal to websites requesting that your browsing activity not be tracked. Because there is currently no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals, our site does not alter its behavior in response to a DNT signal at this time. We will revisit this position as industry standards and applicable regulatory guidance develop.

10. Updates to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy periodically to reflect changes in the cookies we use, changes to applicable legal requirements, or updates to our website infrastructure and third-party service providers. When we make changes, we will update the effective date at the top of this document. If we make material changes, we will take reasonable steps to bring them to your attention, which may include displaying a notice on our website or updating the cookie consent notice you see upon revisiting the site.

We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy periodically to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies. Your continued use of our site following the posting of changes constitutes your acceptance of those changes to the extent permitted by applicable law.

11. Governing Law

This Cookie Policy is governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Any questions or disputes arising in connection with this Cookie Policy shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of Jefferson County, Kentucky, in accordance with the dispute resolution provisions set out in our Terms of Service.
