Cookie Notice
This notice lists every cookie femmesenses sets, why it exists, and how long it lives. It's a factual description of our practice — no vague language, no promising things we don't do.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files a site stores in your browser. We use only first-party cookies (they are never shared with ad networks) and only the ones technically necessary for the site to work.
Cookies we set today
- fs_locale
- Stores your interface language (Ukrainian or English) when you click the language switcher in the sidebar. Lifetime: 12 months. Without it the site would render the default language on every visit.
- fs_welcome_shown
- A session flag that records you have already seen the welcome screen in this browser session. No max-age (cleared when the browser closes).
- femmesenses_cookie_consent
- Records that you have seen this cookie notice. Lifetime: 12 months. Without it the banner reappears on the next visit.
- private_gallery_session
- Set only for clients opening a private gallery through their personal link. It lets us show your photographs for the duration of the viewing session. It is not set if you are simply browsing the site or the shop.
That's the whole list. We set no analytics, no marketing cookies and no advertising trackers.
Payment happens on the bank's page, not here. The bank may set cookies of its own — but on its own site and under its own rules; they never reach femmesenses and are not covered by this notice.
Cookies that will appear when those features ship
- fs_currency — when the multi-currency switcher returns (UAH / USD / EUR), once the rate API is wired.
- Analytics — if we ever enable it. If that happens we will update this notice and add an explicit, categorised consent control.
What else we keep in your browser
A couple of things live in your browser's local storage rather than in a cookie. Technically they are not cookies, but the data sits on your device just the same, so we list them.
- Your cart
- The works you add to the cart are kept in your browser and are not sent to our server until you place an order. That is why a cart does not follow you to another device — and why it empties if you clear this site's data.
- This notice's acknowledgement
- Mirrors the consent cookie so the banner doesn't flicker as you move between pages.
How to control cookies
Your browser has settings that let you block or delete cookies and local storage. If you clear this site's data, the cookie banner appears again on your next visit and your cart empties.
Changes to this notice
If we add a new cookie — especially one that requires consent (analytics, marketing) — we will update this notice and show a banner with category-level controls. The last-updated date is in the page header.
