Cookies Policy

Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. These files contain information about your browsing and preferences, allowing the site to recognize you and improve your experience on subsequent visits.

Cookies are completely anonymous: they do not contain personal information such as your name, address, or banking details. They are not viruses or malicious programs, and they do not damage your device in any way. Their sole purpose is to make your browsing smoother, faster, and more personalized.

The use of cookies is standard internet practice. The vast majority of websites you visit daily — from social media to online stores — use cookies to function properly and provide you with a better experience.

At Cat E-commerce, we use cookies for multiple purposes that improve your shopping experience:

• Recognizing your device: When you return to our site, cookies allow us to identify you and remember your preferences without requiring you to set everything up from scratch.
• Remembering your preferences: We store your preferred language, the currency you like to see prices in (Peruvian Soles or US Dollars), and your recently viewed products.
• Keeping your cart active: Technical cookies ensure that the products you added to your cart stay there while you browse other sections of the store, even if you accidentally close your browser.
• Anonymous statistics: We collect anonymous data on how you navigate our site — which pages you visit, how long you stay, which device you use — to identify areas for improvement and optimize performance.
• Relevant advertising: With your consent, we use cookies to show you ads for products that genuinely interest you, based on your browsing behavior within our store.

All of these features are designed to give you a more comfortable, faster, and personalized shopping experience.

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.

At Cat E-commerce, we offer you full control over the cookies stored on your device:

• Accept all: By clicking "Accept all cookies" on our banner, you allow us to use technical, personalization, analytics, and advertising cookies. This gives you the most complete browsing experience, with personalized content and relevant ads.
• Reject non-essential cookies: You can choose "Essential cookies only" to limit usage exclusively to technical cookies. The store will still work, but features such as remembering your preferences, showing personalized ads, or measuring anonymous statistics will not be active.
• Configure preferences: Our cookie settings panel lets you choose which cookie categories you accept and which you reject in granular detail. You can enable or disable personalization, analytics, and advertising cookies separately.

Important: Technical or essential cookies cannot be disabled, as they are necessary for the basic operation of the store (shopping cart, login, security).

You can change your preferences at any time by accessing the "Cookie Settings" link available in the footer of our website. If you continue browsing without changing your settings, we will understand that you accept the use of cookies under our default conditions.

All modern browsers allow you to manage cookies directly from their settings. Below, we show you how to access cookie settings in the most commonly used browsers:

• Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and security > Cookies and other site data. From there, you can block all cookies, block only third-party cookies, or configure exceptions for specific sites.
• Mozilla Firefox: Options > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data. Firefox offers a "Strict" protection level that blocks most third-party tracking cookies.
• Safari (Apple): Preferences > Privacy > Cookies and website data. Safari blocks cross-site tracking cookies by default (Intelligent Tracking Prevention).
• Microsoft Edge: Settings > Privacy, search, and services > Cookies. You will also find the "Send Do Not Track requests" option, which you can enable for greater privacy.

Please note:

• If you disable all cookies, including technical ones, some store features may not work properly. For example, the shopping cart might not keep the products you added, or you may be unable to log into your account.
• Most browsers allow you to set exceptions by website. You can block cookies in general but specifically allow them for catecommerce.pe, ensuring your shopping experience is not affected.
• For greater control, you can also configure your browser to ask you each time a website attempts to store a cookie on your device.

If you are using a browser or device not listed here, please refer to the corresponding help section or user manual for instructions on cookie management.

Cat E-commerce S.A.C. reserves the right to modify this policy at any time to adapt it to:
