This Cookie Policy explains how Chip & Dough ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website chipanddough.com. We believe in transparency, so here is a straightforward explanation of what we use and why.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit them. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide information to website owners. Unlike the cookies we bake, these ones don't contain chocolate chips — just small pieces of data.

Cookies We Use

We keep our cookie usage minimal and purposeful. Here is what we use:

Essential Cookies

Cookie consent preference — remembers whether you have accepted or dismissed the cookie notice so we don't ask you on every visit. Duration: 1 year.
Cart data — stored in your browser's local storage to remember your shopping cart between visits. No data is sent to our servers until you place an order.

Analytics Cookies

We use Polsia Analytics, a privacy-friendly analytics tool, to understand how visitors interact with our website:

Visitor identifier (_polsia_vid) — a randomly generated anonymous identifier used to distinguish returning visitors from new ones. No personally identifiable information is stored. Duration: 1 year.
Session identifier (_polsia_sid) — groups page views into a single browsing session so we can understand how visitors navigate the site. Duration: 30 minutes.

What We Don't Use

We believe in respecting your privacy and keeping things simple. We do not use:

Advertising or retargeting cookies — we will never track you across the web or serve you targeted ads based on your visit to our site.
Third-party social media tracking pixels — no Facebook Pixel, Google Ads tags, or similar trackers.
Third-party analytics platforms — we use our own privacy-friendly Polsia Analytics instead of Google Analytics or similar services that share data with third parties.
Cookie-based advertising profiles — we do not sell or share cookie data with advertisers.

Please note that disabling cookies may affect how our website functions. Essential cookies are necessary for the basic operation of the site, and blocking them may prevent certain features from working properly. You can also use incognito or private browsing mode to browse without cookies being stored permanently.
