COOKIE POLICY

Last updated March 15, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how The Athena Margaux Sanctuary Inc ("Company," "we," "us," and "our") uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website at https://athenamargauxsanctuary.org ("Website"). It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

In some cases we may use cookies to collect personal information, or that becomes personal information if we combine it with other information.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners in order to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, The Athena Margaux Sanctuary Inc) are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., advertising, interactive content, and analytics). The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.

Why do we use cookies?

We use first- and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our Website to operate — we refer to these as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. Other cookies enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Website. Third parties serve cookies through our Website for analytics and other purposes as described in more detail below.

How can I control cookies?

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie rights by setting your preferences in the Cookie Consent Manager. The Cookie Consent Manager allows you to select which categories of cookies you accept or reject. Essential cookies cannot be rejected as they are strictly necessary to provide you with services.

The Cookie Consent Manager can be found in the notification banner and on our Website. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our Website though your access to some functionality and areas of our Website may be restricted. You may also set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies.

The specific types of first- and third-party cookies served through our Website and the purposes they perform are described below:

Essential website cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary to provide you with services available through our Website and to use some of its features, such as access to secure areas.

Performance and functionality cookies

These cookies enhance the performance and functionality of our Website but are non-essential. However, without these cookies, certain functionality (like videos) may become unavailable.

Analytics and customization cookies

These cookies collect information used in aggregate form to help us understand how our Website is being used, or to help us customize our Website for you.

Advertising cookies

These cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to you and to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns.

Unclassified cookies

These cookies have not yet been fully categorized. We are in the process of classifying them with the help of their providers.

What about other tracking technologies, like web beacons?

Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We may use other similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called "tracking pixels" or "clear gifs"). These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enables us to recognize when someone has visited our Website or opened an email including them. This allows us to monitor traffic patterns, deliver cookies, understand how you arrived at the website, improve site performance, and measure the success of email marketing campaigns. These technologies are often reliant on cookies to function properly, so declining cookies will impair their functioning.

Do you use Flash cookies or Local Shared Objects?

Websites may also use "Flash Cookies" (also known as Local Shared Objects or "LSOs") to collect and store information about your use of our services and for fraud prevention. If you do not want Flash Cookies stored on your computer, you can adjust your Flash player settings using the Website Storage Settings Panel or the Global Storage Settings Panel. Please note that limiting Flash Cookies may reduce or impede the functionality of some Flash applications.

Do you serve targeted advertising?

Third parties may serve cookies on your computer or mobile device to serve advertising through our Website. These companies may use information about your visits to this and other websites to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services that may interest you. The information collected through this process does not enable us or them to identify your name, contact details, or other directly identifying information unless you choose to provide these.

How often will you update this Cookie Policy?

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Please revisit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed. The date at the top of this page indicates when it was last updated.
