After a transaction, your private information (credit card number, etc.) will not be stored on Chinola servers. Please keep in mind, however, there is no such thing as perfect security, and no Internet transmission is never completely secure or error-free.

About Cookies

Cookies are small files which often include an anonymous unique identifier sent by web servers to web browsers and stored by the web browsers which enable the website or service provider’s systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information. The information is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from the server. This enables a web server to identify and track web browsers. Information gathered through cookies and web server logs may include the date and time of visits, the pages viewed, and the time spent at our Site. There are two main kinds of cookies: session cookies and persistent cookies. Session cookies are deleted from your computer when you close your browser, whereas persistent cookies remain stored on your computer until deleted, or until they reach their expiry date.

We may contract with third-party service providers to assist in better understanding Site visitors. These service providers are not permitted to use the information collected except to help Chinola conduct and improve our business.

Categories of Cookies

The cookies we use can be divided into four categories: (1) Strictly Necessary Cookies, (2) Performance Cookies, (3) Functionality Cookies, and (4) Advertising Cookies.

Performance Cookies

These cookies collect information about how visitors use a website, for instance which pages visitors go to most often. These cookies don’t collect information that directly identifies a visitor. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore becomes anonymous. It is only used to improve how a website works.

What type of Performance Cookies do we use on our Site?

Our Site requires you to enter your date of birth and cookies allow us to remember the data you have entered, so that We do not need to ask you to re-enter information every time you browse to a different page of the Site. We also use Google Analytics types of cookies which, in conjunction with our web server’s log files, allow us to calculate the aggregate number of people visiting our Site and which parts of our Site are most popular. This helps us gather feedback so that We can improve our Site and better serve our customers. We do not generally store any personal information that you provide to us in a cookie. Most of our cookies expire within 90 days although our analytics cookies may persist for two (2) to ten (10) years. If you delete cookies relating to this Site, We will not remember things about you and you will be treated as a first-time visitor the next time you visit the Site.

The purpose of cookies, such as Google Analytics cookies, is to store information such as the time you visit the Site, and whether you have visited it before.

Functionality Cookies

These cookies allow the Site to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, more personal features. For instance, a website may be able to provide you with local weather reports or traffic news by storing in a cookie the region in which you are currently located. The information these cookies collect may be anonymized and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.

Targeting Cookies or Advertising Cookies

These cookies are used to deliver marketing materials and advertisements more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of the advertising campaign. They are usually placed by third party advertising technology providers (such as advertising networks and other digital advertising platforms) with the website operator’s permission.

What type of Targeting Cookies or Advertising Cookies do we use?

These cookies are used to deliver content that is more relevant to you and your interests based on your previous browsing across the web as well as keywords we may be able to gather from the URLs of webpages from which you accessed this Site and any search engine used to reach this Site. Also, these cookies may be used to deliver targeted advertising to you or to limit the number of times you see an advertisement. They stay on your computer unless you delete them and they remember that you have visited a website. We may also use certain service providers to set cookies on our behalf via third party websites with whom we have partnered. These cookies enable us to analyze consumers’ visits to specific sections of those websites and collect certain information regarding purchases of our products from those websites. The types of information collected by such cookies may include: shopping cart information, what product pages have been viewed, or whether a purchase of a product has been made.

Marketing cookies we use include Third Party Cookies set by Google whom we use for online interest-based advertising.
