COOKIE POLICY
Effective August 1, 2026 • Version 1.1
1. About This Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how Woof World, LLC (“Woof World,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on woofworld.com, my.woofworld.com, and related sites and services (collectively, the “Site”). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which describes how we handle personal information generally, and our Terms of Service.
2. What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to recognize your device, remember your preferences, and understand how the site is being used.
We also use technologies that work similarly, and references to “cookies” in this Policy include them:
- Pixels and tags — small pieces of code, often invisible, that record that a page was viewed or an action was taken.
- Local storage — data stored in your browser by the site, which persists until cleared.
- Software development kits — code within applications that performs similar functions.
Cookies set by the site you are visiting are called first-party cookies. Cookies set by another organization through that site are called third-party cookies.
3. Why We Use Cookies
We use cookies to operate the Site, to keep it secure, to remember your choices, to understand how it is used, and to deliver and measure advertising.
4. Categories of Cookies We Use
Category | Purpose | Can you disable it? |
Strictly necessary | Signing you in and keeping you signed in, securing your session, remembering items in a cart, processing payments, recording that a vote or entry was submitted, preventing fraud and automated abuse, and recording your cookie preferences. | No. The Site cannot function without these, so they are not subject to consent. |
Functional | Remembering your display preferences, language, and settings, and enabling community features such as profiles, groups, and messaging. | Yes. Some features may not work as expected if disabled. |
Analytics and performance | Understanding which pages are visited, how visitors move through the Site, where errors occur, and how campaigns perform, so we can improve the Site. | Yes. |
Advertising and targeting | Delivering advertising for Woof World on other sites and platforms, limiting how often you see the same advertisement, and measuring whether an advertisement led to a registration, entry, or purchase. | Yes. |
5. Cookies Set by Third Parties
Some cookies on the Site are set by companies that provide services to us. These include our website and community platform, our membership and rewards systems, our payment processor, our customer relationship and marketing platform, our analytics providers, our advertising partners, and our accessibility and support tools.
These providers may use the information they collect for their own purposes as described in their own privacy policies, over which we have no control. We do not permit our service providers to use information collected through the Site to build profiles for their own unrelated advertising purposes, except where you have consented to advertising cookies.
Content embedded from other services, such as video players or social media posts, may set its own cookies when you interact with it.
6. How Long Cookies Last
Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period, which varies by cookie and generally ranges from a few days to two years, unless you delete them sooner. Advertising cookies typically have shorter lifespans than functional ones.
7. Managing Your Preferences
Cookie Preferences. You can accept or decline non-essential cookies at any time using the Cookie Preferences link in the footer of every page. Your choice is recorded and applies to that browser and device. If you use more than one browser or device, you will need to set your preference on each.
Browser controls. Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through their settings. Blocking all cookies will prevent parts of the Site from working, including signing in and voting.
Opt-out preference signals. We honor Global Privacy Control and similar browser-based opt-out signals where required by applicable law. When we detect such a signal, we treat it as a request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information and of targeted advertising for that browser.
Advertising opt-outs. You can opt out of interest-based advertising from participating companies through the Digital Advertising Alliance at optout.aboutads.info and the Network Advertising Initiative at optout.networkadvertising.org. These are industry tools we do not control, and opting out does not stop all advertising — it stops advertising being tailored to you.
Mobile devices. Your device settings allow you to limit ad tracking or reset your advertising identifier.
Your Privacy Choices. Residents of certain states can exercise additional rights, including opting out of targeted advertising and of any sale or sharing of personal information, through the Your Privacy Choices link in the footer or as described in our Privacy Policy.
8. Do Not Track
Browsers may offer a “Do Not Track” setting. There is no common industry standard for how sites should respond to it, and we do not currently respond to Do Not Track signals. We do honor Global Privacy Control as described in Section 7.
9. Cookies and Users Under 18
We do not include registered users we know to be under 18 in targeted advertising audiences and do not share their information with advertising partners for that purpose. This applies regardless of the cookie preferences set on their device.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Policy as our use of cookies changes. When we do, we will update the version number and effective date above and retain prior versions in an accessible archive. Material changes affecting how we use non-essential cookies will be accompanied by a renewed request for your consent where required by law.
