Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Cross Border Ecom Guide ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on crossborderecomguide.com (the "Site"). It describes what cookies are, the types we use, how they support our services for international sellers, and how you can manage them.

By using the Site, you consent to the use of cookies as described in this policy, unless you have disabled them through your browser or our cookie preferences tool.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device (computer, tablet, or phone) when you visit. They help the site remember your actions and preferences over time, so you don't have to re-enter them each visit. Cookies can be set by the site you are visiting (first-party) or by third parties whose services are embedded on the site (third-party).

Cookies are not programs and cannot carry viruses or access your hard drive. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently and to provide information to site owners.

Types of Cookies We Use

We use the following categories of cookies on crossborderecomguide.com:

Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the Site to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms. Without these cookies, services like account access and secure areas would not work.

Examples: session management, load balancing, and security tokens.

Performance Cookies

These cookies collect information about how visitors use the Site—for example, which pages are visited most often and whether users encounter error messages. They help us improve the Site's performance and usability. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous.

Examples: Google Analytics (with IP anonymization) to track page views and user behavior.

Functional Cookies

These cookies enable the Site to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly.

Examples: remembering your language preference or region for displaying relevant content, such as VAT rates or shipping guidelines.

Targeting/Advertising Cookies

These cookies may be set through our Site by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant ads on other sites. They do not store directly personal information but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.

Examples: LinkedIn Insight Tag, Facebook Pixel, and Google Ads conversion tracking.

Third-Party Cookies and Services

We work with trusted third-party providers who may set cookies on your device when you visit our Site. These providers help us with analytics, advertising, and functionality. We do not control these third-party cookies, and their use is governed by the respective privacy policies of those providers.

Each of these providers has its own privacy policy, which we encourage you to review.
