What Cookies Does Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd. Use?
Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd. (hereinafter: Meta) uses cookies if you have a Facebook account, use Meta products (including Facebook pages and applications), or visit other websites and applications that integrate Meta products (such as the “Like” button or other Facebook technologies).
Cookies enable Meta to provide its products and understand the information it receives from you, including data about your use of other websites and applications, regardless of whether you are registered or logged in.
Cookies help provide, protect, and improve Meta’s products by, for example, customizing content, tailoring and measuring advertisements, and ensuring a safer environment. Although the cookies used by Facebook may change periodically as Meta improves and updates its products, they serve the following purposes:
-
Authentication – Verifying your account and login status to provide you with access to Meta products and ensure appropriate content and features.
-
Security and site integrity – Protecting your account, data, and Meta products from unauthorized access and fraudulent activities.
-
Advertising, recommendations, analytics, and measurement – Showing relevant ads, tracking ad performance, and analyzing user behavior to improve Meta’s services.
-

Meta also collects data about your device and online activity when you visit its platforms and applications, even if you do not have a Facebook account or are not logged in.
Do Other Websites Use Cookies Related to Meta Products?
Yes, third parties may use cookies on Meta products to provide services to us and businesses that advertise on Facebook.
For example, our measurement partners use cookies in Meta products to help advertisers understand the effectiveness of their ad campaigns and compare their performance with ads displayed on other websites and applications.
Third parties also use cookies on their own websites and applications in connection with Meta products. To learn how other websites use cookies, please refer to their policies.
How to Manage How Facebook Uses Cookies for Ad Display?
One of the reasons we use cookies is to show you useful and relevant ads on and off Facebook.
You can control how Facebook uses your data to display ads with the tools described below. Additionally, you can manage and update the data used by the data controller in connection with Meta services used by Divinity Beauty Supply via the data management tools available on www.divinitysupply.com.
For Everyone:
You can opt out of seeing online ads displayed by Facebook and other companies through the Digital Advertising Alliance in the U.S., the Digital Advertising Alliance of Canada in Canada, or the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance in Europe, or through your mobile device settings. Please note that ad-blocking software and tools that restrict our use of cookies may interfere with these controls.
Additional Information on Online Advertising:
Advertising companies that partner with Meta primarily use cookies and similar technologies as part of their services. If you want to learn more about how advertisers generally use cookies and what options they offer, explore the following resources:
Managing Cookies in Your Browser:
Additionally, your browser or device may have settings that allow you to choose whether cookies are stored and give you the option to delete them. For more information on these controls, check your browser or device's help section. If you disable cookies in your browser, some parts of Facebook products may not function properly.
The purpose and scope of data collection, further processing, and use of data by Facebook/Instagram, as well as your rights and privacy settings, can be found in Facebook's Data Policy and Instagram's Privacy Policy.
If you do not want Facebook/Instagram to directly associate the data collected through our website with your Facebook/Instagram profile, you must log out of Facebook/Instagram before visiting our website. You can completely prevent Facebook/Instagram plugins from loading by using browser extensions, such as the Facebook Blocker.
Which Cookies Are Used by Google LLC and Its Affiliates?
The website www.divinitysupply.com also uses certain Google services, through which Google LLC collects specific personal data via cookies (hereinafter: Google).
When referring to Google services, we consider the following:
-
Google applications,
-
Websites,
-
Devices such as Search platforms, YouTube, and Google Home, as well as the Chrome browser and Android operating system,
-
Products integrated into third-party applications and websites, such as ads and embedded Google Maps.
When you are signed in and interact with certain Google services, such as posting a comment on a YouTube video, your name and profile picture may be displayed alongside your activity. Depending on your settings, Google may also display this data in ads.
Google may publicly share certain categories of data with its partners, such as advertisers or developers. Similarly, Google allows certain partners to collect data from your browser or device for advertising and measurement purposes through their own cookies or similar technologies.
Google uses cookies for various purposes, including:
-
Remembering your SafeSearch preferences,
-
Making ads more relevant to you,
-
Counting visitors to a specific page,
-
Assisting with registration for certain Google services,
-
Protecting your data,
-
Remembering your ad settings.
Below, you can find a list of the types of cookies Google uses and learn how Google and its partners utilize cookies in advertising.
1. Use of "Preferences" Cookies
These cookies allow Google websites to remember information that changes the behavior or appearance of the website, such as your selected language or region.
For example, if the website remembers your location, it can provide local weather or traffic news. These cookies can also help adjust text size, font, and other customizable elements of web pages.
If the data stored in a preferences cookie is lost, the functionality of the website may be affected, but it should not prevent the website from operating.
Example:
Most Google users have a preferences cookie called "NID" in their browser. The browser sends this cookie along with requests to Google websites. The "NID" cookie contains a unique ID that Google uses to store your preferences and other information, such as your preferred language (e.g., Slovenian), the number of search results you want to display per page (e.g., 10 or 20), and whether you want Google's SafeSearch filter to be enabled.
2. Use of "Security" Cookies
Google uses security cookies to authenticate users and protect user data from unauthorized access.
Example:
Google uses the cookies "SID" and "HSID," which contain digitally signed and encrypted records of the user's Google Account ID and the time of their last login. The combination of these two cookies enables Google to block various types of attacks, such as attempts to steal content from forms you have filled out on websites.
3. Use of "Process" Cookies
Process cookies help websites function properly and provide the services that visitors expect, such as navigating web pages or accessing secure areas of the website. Without these cookies, the website cannot function properly.
Example:
Google uses a cookie called "lbcs," which allows Google Docs to open multiple documents in a single browser. Blocking this cookie would prevent Google Docs from functioning correctly.
4. Use of "Advertising" Cookies
This category of cookies helps Google make advertising more engaging for users and more valuable for publishers and advertisers. These cookies are typically used to:
-
Select ads based on their relevance to the user,
-
Improve reporting on ad campaign performance,
-
Prevent the same ads from being shown too frequently to the same user.
Example:
Google uses the "NID" and "SID" cookies to customize ads in Google products, such as Google Search. For example, Google uses these cookies to remember your last searches, previous interactions with ads or advertiser search results, and visits to advertiser websites. This allows Google to display personalized ads.
Google also uses one or more cookies for ads displayed on the web. One of the main advertising cookies on non-Google websites is called "IDE," which is stored in browsers under the doubleclick.net domain. Another similar cookie is stored under the google.com domain and is called "ANID."
Google also uses cookies such as DSID, FLC, AID, TAID, and exchange_uid. Other Google products, such as YouTube, may also use these cookies to display more relevant ads.
Sometimes, advertising cookies may be placed on the domain of the website you visited. In cases where Google provides online advertising, cookies such as "__gads" or "__gac" may be set on the visited website's domain.
Unlike cookies set on Google's domains, Google cannot read these cookies when you are on websites where they are not set. Their purpose is to measure interactions with ads on that domain and prevent excessive ad repetition for users.
Google also uses conversion cookies, primarily to help advertisers determine how often people who click on their ads actually purchase their products.
5. Use of "Session Status" Cookies
Websites often collect information about how users interact with the site. This may include details on which pages users visit most frequently and whether they receive error messages from certain pages. These "session status cookies" help Google improve its services and provide users with a better browsing experience.
Blocking or deleting these cookies will not make the website unusable.
The cookies mentioned above may also be used to anonymously measure the effectiveness of pay-per-click and affiliate advertising.
Example:
A cookie named "recently_watched_video_id_list" is used by YouTube to record which videos a particular browser has recently watched.
6. Use of "Analytics" Cookies
To analyze website traffic, www.divinitysupply.com uses Google (Universal) Analytics, an analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited (www.google.de). This service operates under Irish regulations and is based at Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (www.google.co.uk).
When data is transferred to Google and stored on servers located in the United States, Google LLC is certified under the EU-US Privacy Shield data protection framework.
Google (Universal) Analytics uses methods such as cookies to analyze your use of websites. Automatically collected data about your website usage is usually transferred to Google's servers in the U.S. and stored there. By enabling IP address anonymization on these websites, IP addresses are truncated before transmission within EU member states or other signatory countries of the European Economic Area (EEA) Agreement. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address sent to a Google server in the U.S. and then truncated.
The anonymized IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not linked to other Google data. Once Google Analytics usage ends, data collected in this context is deleted.
You can prevent Google from collecting and processing data generated by cookies related to your use of websites (including your IP address) by downloading and installing a browser add-on available at the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.
Alternatively, clicking this link will prevent future data collection by Google Analytics on these websites. A cookie will be stored on your device to deactivate tracking. If you delete your cookies, you will need to click the link again.
