This Cookie Policy explains how D.D Collectables LLC, doing business as Serial Shield 3D™, uses cookies and similar technologies on serialshield3d.com. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

What Cookies and Similar Technologies Are

Cookies are small text files stored by a website or service in a browser. They can help a website operate, remember choices, maintain a shopping session, measure use, support security, and perform other functions described in this policy.

Similar technologies may include pixels, tags, local storage, scripts, software-development tools, and device or browser identifiers. References to cookies in this policy include these similar technologies when applicable.

How We Use Cookies

Serial Shield 3D™ uses necessary technologies to operate the website, maintain carts and checkout sessions, remember privacy choices, protect the site, and provide requested features.

With the visitor’s permission, we may also use preference, analytics, advertising, embedded-content, and social-media technologies. Nonessential categories can be accepted, rejected, or customized through the Cookie Settings control.

Consent and Cookie Settings

When the consent notice appears, select Accept All, Reject All, or Customize. Functional technologies that are necessary to operate the website remain active. Preferences, Statistics, and Marketing are optional categories.

You may review or change your choices at any time by selecting the permanent Cookie Settings control displayed on the website or by selecting Open Cookie Settings.

Rejecting or withdrawing consent does not prevent access to the basic website and store functions, but optional analytics, advertising, videos, social feeds, or personalized features may remain unavailable.

Functional and Necessary Cookies

Functional and necessary cookies support services requested by the visitor and functions required to operate the website. They may maintain a WooCommerce cart or customer session, process checkout steps, remember consent choices, support account access, balance website traffic, prevent fraud or abuse, and maintain site security.

WordPress, WooCommerce, Complianz, WP Consent API, the website host, security tools, and performance tools may set or use necessary cookies. Common examples may include WooCommerce cart and session identifiers and Complianz consent-choice cookies. Their exact names may vary by software version and enabled feature.

Disabling necessary cookies through browser controls may cause the cart, checkout, account, security, or other requested functions to stop working correctly.

Preference Cookies

Preference cookies remember optional choices that change how the website appears or behaves, such as interface, display, embedded-content, or similar settings. They are used only when enabled through Cookie Settings or when otherwise permitted by applicable law.

Analytics and Statistics

Serial Shield 3D™ uses Google Analytics 4 through Site Kit by Google to understand website traffic, page use, device categories, general referral sources, product-page activity, and store events. This information helps evaluate website performance and improve products, content, and customer experience.

Google Analytics may use first-party cookies such as _ga and _ga_<container-id> after Statistics consent is granted. Google lists a default expiration of two years for these cookies, although browser limits, configuration changes, deletion, or consent withdrawal may shorten that period.

Google Consent Mode is enabled. Analytics and advertising consent signals are set to denied where required until the visitor makes an applicable choice, and consent changes are communicated through WP Consent API.

Advertising and Conversion Measurement

When Google Ads or another approved advertising service is configured, Marketing technologies may be used to measure ad clicks, attribute purchases or other conversions, limit repeated advertising, evaluate campaign performance, and support advertising or remarketing.

Google advertising cookies may include identifiers beginning with _gcl_, which Google generally uses for conversion measurement and lists with a typical duration of 90 days. Other advertising identifiers, domains, and retention periods may apply depending on the enabled Google service and the visitor’s Google or browser settings.

Advertising and conversion-measurement technologies are assigned to the Marketing category and are not enabled through the site’s consent controls unless the visitor grants the applicable permission or applicable law permits their use.

YouTube and Social-Media Content

The website may embed YouTube videos or content, buttons, feeds, posts, pixels, or other features provided by Facebook, Instagram, and X. Loading or interacting with that content may allow the provider to receive information such as the visitor’s IP address, browser information, referring page, interaction data, and account status with that provider.

Complianz is configured to block YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and X integrations and display placeholders when possible until Marketing consent is granted. After consent, the provider may set its own cookies or similar identifiers under its privacy and cookie terms.

Social-media links that merely open an outside website do not by themselves authorize Serial Shield 3D™ to access the visitor’s social-media account. The outside provider controls information collected after the visitor leaves serialshield3d.com.

Checkout and Third-Party Services

Payment, fraud-prevention, shipping, security, email, or other service providers may use cookies or similar technologies when their service is loaded or used. Necessary technologies may be used to complete a requested transaction, protect the checkout, or prevent fraud. Any optional analytics or marketing use remains subject to the applicable consent choice.

Third-party services control their own cookies, processing practices, and retention periods. Their privacy and cookie notices apply to information they collect directly.

Cookie Duration and Current Cookie List

Session cookies normally expire when the browser session ends or after the related shopping or security session expires. Persistent cookies remain until their stated expiration, deletion by the visitor, replacement by a later cookie, withdrawal of consent where applicable, or removal by the service that set them.

Consent-choice cookies may remain for up to 12 months so the website can remember the visitor’s decision. WooCommerce cart and session durations depend on the store function being used. Google Analytics cookies generally have a default duration of up to two years, and Google advertising-conversion cookies commonly last up to 90 days. Embedded-content providers may use different periods.

Cookie names, purposes, and durations may change when WordPress, WooCommerce, Complianz, Site Kit, Google services, embedded services, or other website components are updated. Serial Shield 3D™ periodically scans the website and will update this policy when material changes are identified.

Browser Controls, Do Not Track, and Global Privacy Control

Most browsers allow cookies to be viewed, blocked, or deleted. Blocking all cookies may prevent the cart, checkout, login, consent record, security, or other requested features from working properly.

The website is configured to respect recognized Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control signals through its consent-management system. Browser support and the effect of these signals may vary. Visitors may also use Cookie Settings for direct control over optional categories.

Policy Changes

Serial Shield 3D™ may update this Cookie Policy when website features, cookies, service providers, consent controls, or legal obligations change. The effective date at the top of the page identifies the current version.
