The cookies used by Cat E-commerce are classified across three dimensions:

By ownership:

First-party cookies: Sent to your device from our own domains (catecommerce.pe) and managed by us. These are the ones we use for the basic operation of the store.
Third-party cookies: Sent from external domains managed by other companies, such as Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or Stripe. These cookies are controlled by each provider according to their own privacy policies.

By duration:

Session cookies: Temporary and automatically deleted when you close your browser. Used to keep your session active while browsing the store and to remember products in your cart during that visit.
Persistent cookies: Remain on your device for a defined period (days, months, or years). Used to remember your preferences on future visits — such as language or currency — and for analytics and advertising purposes.

By purpose:

Technical cookies (essential): Indispensable for the website's operation. They include session cookies (keeping your cart and login active), security cookies (preventing CSRF attacks and protecting your data), and load-balancing cookies. They do not require your consent because the store cannot operate correctly without them.
Personalization cookies: Allow us to remember your language, currency (S/ or USD), and regional settings so you don't have to select them each time you visit.
Analytics cookies: We use Google Analytics to collect anonymous data about our site traffic: number of visitors, most-viewed pages, time spent, devices used, and traffic sources. This information helps us improve the design, content, and performance of the store.
Advertising cookies: We use Facebook Pixel to show personalized ads on social media to users who have visited our store. For example, if you viewed a product but didn't purchase it, we might show you an ad featuring that product. These cookies are only activated with your explicit consent through our cookie banner.
Login cookies: Allow you to stay logged in between visits so you don't have to enter your credentials every time you return to the store. They are activated when you select the "Remember me" option at login.
