These cookies are used to store information, such as what time the current visit occurred, whether the visitor has been to the site before, and what site referred the visitor to the web page. Google Analytics customers can view a variety of reports about how visitors interact with their website so they can improve their website and how people find it. A different set of cookies is used for each website, and visitors are not tracked across multiple sites. Analytics customers are obliged to notify users of their use of analytics software. To disable this type of cookie, some browsers will indicate when a cookie is being sent and allow You to decline cookies on a case-by-case basis. In addition to declining cookies, You can also install the Google Analytics Opt-out Add-on in Your browser, which prevents Google Analytics from collecting information about Your website visits. You can also opt out by clicking here.
- Functionality Cookies: they remember the choices You make, such as language options or Your current region. These cookies help to make Your visit more personal and are deleted automatically when You close Your browser or the session expires.
- You can block or disable cookies on Your device at any time by indicating this in the preferences or options menus in Your browser. You can also delete the cookies that are stored on Your Product. However, blocking, disabling, or deleting cookies may limit Your ability to view all the pages of the My Love Design Services or use online services that require registration.
