Cookie Policy

Version updated on: 21 June 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Adria Science uses cookies, local storage, session storage, pixels, tags, scripts, and similar technologies on adriascience.com.

1. What Cookies Are

Cookies are small files stored on your device by a website. Similar technologies may store or read information from your browser or device to operate, secure, personalize, measure, or improve a website.

2. Essential Cookies

Essential cookies and similar technologies are required for core website and E-shop functions, including cart, checkout, customer account login, payment flow, security, fraud prevention, currency preference, research-use gate acceptance, cookie consent storage, load balancing, and basic site operation. The website may not function correctly without these technologies.

3. Preference and Functionality Cookies

Preference technologies remember choices such as selected currency, accepted research-use notice, cookie banner choice, account preferences, interface state, and similar settings that improve the browsing or checkout experience.

4. Analytics Cookies

Analytics technologies help Adria Science understand page performance, product-page behavior, search behavior, checkout errors, stock-alert interactions, campaign performance, and general conversion issues. These may include Google Site Kit or Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, and local Adria Science funnel/session analytics where enabled.

5. Advertising and Measurement Technologies

Advertising and measurement technologies may help measure advertising performance, conversion events, remarketing eligibility, campaign attribution, and audience performance. These may include Google, Meta, Microsoft, Pixel Manager for WooCommerce, and related advertising or conversion tags where enabled and consented.

6. Third-Party Service Cookies

Some plugins and embedded services may set cookies or similar technologies for search, reviews, payments, fraud prevention, shipping, analytics, advertising, customer support, partner tracking, or account functionality. Relevant service categories may include WooCommerce, WordPress, FunnelKit, Google for WooCommerce, Meta for WooCommerce, Microsoft Clarity, Trustpilot, WPML Multicurrency, LiteSpeed Cache, payment integrations, shipping integrations, and partner/referral tools.

7. Local Cookie and Storage Examples

• cookieyes-consent and adria_cookie_consent: store cookie-banner choices.
• adria_currency_manual: stores manually selected storefront currency.
• adria_research_gate_accepted: stores acceptance of the research-use-only gate where shown.
• WooCommerce cart and session cookies: support cart, checkout, account, and order flow.
• WordPress login/session cookies: support account login and, for authorized users, admin access.
• Adria local funnel/session storage: helps measure non-sensitive funnel events such as page view, product view, cart action, checkout step, search, and consent state.

8. Consent and Control

Where consent is required, optional analytics and advertising cookies are used only after consent. You can change choices by using the cookie banner where available, clearing site cookies, changing browser settings, blocking third-party cookies, or using browser privacy tools.

Blocking cookies may affect cart, checkout, login, selected currency, research-use gate, payment, consent storage, and other site functions.

9. Updates

Adria Science may update this Cookie Policy as website integrations, plugins, analytics, advertising, payment, shipping, and consent tools change. The current version is published on this page with the version date above.
