This Cookie Policy defines the operational standards, categories, and retention frameworks regarding the organization’s utilization of cookies on www.purrweave.com. This policy is governed and executed exclusively for the commercial operations of Purrweave Pty Ltd, an incorporated proprietary company registered under the laws of Australia. Our corporate data practices strictly adhere to the Australian Privacy Principles, the European Union ePrivacy Directive, and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) to maintain structured data management and consumer choice.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are minor text files allocated to your web browser or local storage device when you access individual pages on our website. They enable our internal infrastructure to recognize your device, retain specific operational preferences, and facilitate smooth checkout operations during your visit.
2. Consumer Autonomy & Consent Mechanism
At Purrweave Pty Ltd, we respect consumer data autonomy. This website operates an active, fully compliant Cookie Consent Banner framework designed to give visitors complete freedom of choice:
- Mandatory Consent Requirements: Non-essential cookies—including analytical tracking, commercial preference cookies, and statistics-gathering codes—are completely restricted from deploying on your device by default.
- The Consent Action: We will only utilize and execute non-essential cookies after a visitor actively interacts with our corporate cookie banner and selects the explicit “Accept” option. Visitors retain the statutory right to decline these cookies or modify their selections at any time through their personal browser configurations.
3. Categories of Cookies Utilized
We classify the cookies deployed on this website into the following operational categories:
- A. Essential & Necessary Cookies (First-Party) These cookies are mandatory to enable basic website operational capabilities, such as navigating individual pages and accessing shopping cart systems. The website cannot perform standard transactional operations without these files.
- B. Third-Party Payment & Risk Mitigation Cookies (Stripe) To complete international checkouts and process transactions, our digital infrastructure interacts with our external financial processing vendor.
- Provider: Stripe
- Purpose: Stripe deploys dedicated third-party cookies on our checkout interfaces. These cookies are required to manage your transactional session, handle financial data processing routing, and perform real-time commercial risk assessments to identify and restrict fraudulent card activity.
- C. Analytical Cookies (First-Party / Consented) Subject to your explicit consent via our banner, these cookies monitor general browsing trends and traffic volumes anonymously, allowing our administration to monitor website operational performance.
4. Cookie Data Retention Frameworks
In accordance with European and Australian data protection mandates, the duration for which cookies are retained on your local device is strictly limited based on their operational necessity:
- Session Cookies: These are temporary files configured to support your active browsing sequence. Session cookies do not gather permanent data and are systematically erased from your device the moment you close your web browser.
- Persistent Cookies: These files remain stored on your device across multiple browsing sessions to remember your preferences or support transactional integrity. In compliance with European regulatory guidelines, all persistent cookies deployed on our platform carry a strict expiration timeline and are fully cleared within a maximum period of thirteen (13) months from their initial activation date.
5. Browser Management Controls
In addition to our website’s consent banner, consumers can manage or revoke cookie files directly through their internet browser settings (such as Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Apple Safari, or Mozilla Firefox). You can configure your browser to reject all third-party cookies, clear existing cookie storage, or alert you when a website attempts to allocate a cookie file to your system.
