7. Other Tracking Technologies

In addition to cookies, we use other technologies to enhance your experience:

Local Storage:

We use HTML5 local storage to store data on your device (e.g., shopping cart, age verification). Local storage is similar to cookies but can store more data and does not expire automatically. You can clear local storage through your browser's developer tools or by clearing site data.

Web Beacons:

We may use web beacons (also called pixel tags) in emails to track whether emails are opened and links are clicked. This helps us understand the effectiveness of our email communications.

Server Logs:

Our web server automatically logs certain information about your visit, including your IP address, browser type, operating system, referral source, and pages visited. This information is used for security, debugging, and analytics purposes.

9. Do Not Track Signals
