Cookie Policy

What is a cookie?

A cookie is an information package containing data specified by a server, which the server sends to the browser and which the browser then sends back to the server with each request. Browsers generally store cookies in simple text file(s) (cookie files), meaning that individual cookies may remain available even after the browser has been closed and restarted.

Types of cookies used on the Website

Cookies are used on the doodlz.shop website (the “Website”) by its owner and operator, Sarolta Nagy, sole proprietor (registered office: 1053 Budapest, Ferenciek tere 2, ground floor, Hungary; registration number: 62754127; tax number: 92334612-1-41; email: hello@doodlz.shop; hereinafter the “Service Provider”).

The Website’s hosting provider is Shopify International Limited (registered office: 2nd Floor, 1-2 Victoria Buildings, Haddington Road, Dublin 4, D04 XN32, Ireland; email: privacy@shopify.com; website: https://www.shopify.com/).

The cookies used on the Website are classified into the following categories:

1. Strictly Necessary / Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for browsing the Website, using its basic functions and remembering actions performed on the Website. They are typically valid for the duration of the visit or for a short period thereafter, or are associated with and necessary for the operation of a particular function.

2. Usage-Supporting / Functional Cookies

These cookies enable our website to remember the operating mode or preferences you have selected (for example, that you have accepted the Cookie Notice or selected a language or currency on the website). This means that, on your next visit, you do not have to set your preferences again or decide how you would like the content displayed on the Website to be sorted. Without the information stored in usage-supporting cookies that retain preferences, our website may still operate, albeit less smoothly; however, the preferences will remain in effect until you select different preferences or delete the cookie.

3. Performance Measurement / Statistical and Marketing Cookies

We use cookies necessary for measuring performance on our Website so that we can develop and improve it in line with visitors’ browsing habits. Importantly, these cookies are not capable of, and are not intended to, specifically identify visitors. In addition, cookies targeting marketing content as described below are also used on our Website.

What are third-party cookies?

Our Website uses cookies provided by third-party service providers, about which you can read more below. Neither the Website nor the Service Provider is responsible for the content of other external websites or service providers.

How do we inform visitors and obtain their consent to the use of cookies?

When you first visit the Service Provider’s Website, a notice appears at the bottom of the screen stating that the Website uses the cookies described here, together with a link to this Notice. You are entitled to accept or reject the cookie settings recommended by the Website. You may also change your COOKIE SETTINGS at a later time.

List and characteristics of cookies used on the Website

Rejecting cookies generally has no consequences for you other than that the relevant cookies will not be used and will not collect data, as described below. However, certain cookies associated with specific functions, as well as other strictly necessary cookies, may be required for the proper operation of the Website or its functions; without them, proper operation cannot be guaranteed. We also emphasise that strictly necessary (session) cookies are always used while you visit the Website, since, as explained above, the Website’s proper availability and operation cannot be ensured without them.

For essential, i.e. strictly necessary, cookies and usage-supporting, i.e. functional, cookies, the legal basis for processing is the Service Provider’s legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”)), namely the proper operation and functionality of the Website.
For performance-measurement (statistical) and marketing cookies, the legal basis for processing is the data subject’s consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR), which the data subject gives by enabling or selecting the cookies in the cookie banner.
