1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other device when you visit a website. Cookies allow websites to recognize a device, remember preferences, provide certain features, measure website activity, and support advertising.

Some cookies remain on your device only while your browser is open. These are called session cookies. Other cookies remain for a defined period or until they are deleted. These are called persistent cookies.

Cookies placed directly by Katrina Cross Photography or our website platform are called first-party cookies. Cookies placed by outside providers, such as Meta, are called third-party cookies.

2. Similar Technologies

In addition to cookies, the Website may use:

• Tracking pixels and web beacons
• Tags and scripts

• Server-side event technologies

These technologies may collect information about your device, browser, Website activity, and interactions with advertisements or communications.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

Strictly Necessary Cookies

Strictly necessary cookies support essential Website functions, including Website navigation, security, form operation, network management, cookie preference storage, and fraud prevention.

These cookies cannot generally be disabled through our cookie controls because the Website may not function properly without them.

Functional Cookies

Functional cookies help remember choices and preferences, including previously selected settings, display preferences, form-related selections, and visitor preferences. Disabling these cookies may affect certain Website features.

Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the Website. They may collect information about pages viewed, time spent on pages, links and buttons clicked, referring websites, browser and device types, general geographic area, Website errors, and overall traffic patterns.

We use this information to evaluate Website performance and improve content, navigation, and services.

Advertising and Targeting Cookies

Advertising cookies and similar technologies help us measure advertising performance, understand whether an advertisement resulted in a Website visit or inquiry, build advertising audiences, limit repetitive advertisements, deliver advertisements that may be more relevant to visitors, and conduct remarketing or retargeting campaigns.

These technologies may recognize a visitor across different websites, applications, browsers, or devices. Where required by applicable law, advertising cookies will not be activated until the visitor provides consent.

4. Meta Pixel

The Website uses the Meta Pixel, a technology provided by Meta Platforms, Inc.

Meta Pixel helps us measure advertising results, understand Website activity, create advertising audiences, and display relevant advertisements through Facebook, Instagram, and other Meta services.

Meta Pixel may collect or receive information such as:

• IP address
• Browser and device information
• Pages visited and referring URL
• Buttons or links clicked
• Date and time of a visit
• Meta cookie identifiers
• Advertising identifiers
• Events connected with a Website action

Meta cookies associated with this technology may include:

• _fbp: Used to identify browsers and support advertising measurement and delivery.
• _fbc: May be created when a visitor arrives through a link containing a Meta advertising click identifier.

The specific cookies, purposes, and retention periods used by Meta may change. Meta processes information according to its own terms and privacy practices. Additional information is available in Meta’s Privacy Policy and Meta’s Cookies Policy.

We do not intend for Meta Pixel to receive complete payment information, private photographs, sensitive boudoir information, medical information, or the contents of Website inquiry forms.

5. Website Hosting and Showit

Our Website is created and hosted using Showit and its associated infrastructure. Showit or its service providers may use cookies and similar technologies necessary to display and operate the Website, provide technical functionality, maintain security, diagnose performance problems, deliver website content, and support embedded forms or integrations.

Necessary platform cookies may operate automatically when you access the Website.

6. Embedded Content and Third-Party Services

The Website may include forms, videos, maps, social media content, galleries, scheduling tools, payment tools, or other features provided by third parties.

These providers may place their own cookies or collect information when you interact with embedded content. Depending on the features currently connected to the Website, providers may include Showit, Meta, HoneyBook, Flodesk, Google services, online gallery providers, scheduling platforms, payment processors, and video-hosting platforms.

Third-party cookies are controlled by the applicable provider and are subject to that provider’s privacy and cookie policies.

7. Email Tracking Technologies

Marketing emails may contain small tracking pixels or specially formatted links that help us understand whether an email was delivered, opened, clicked, unsubscribed from, or generated Website activity.

We may use Flodesk or another email service provider for this purpose. You may unsubscribe from promotional emails using the unsubscribe link contained in each marketing email.

8. Your Cookie Choices

When you first visit the Website, you may be presented with a cookie banner that allows you to accept all cookies, reject nonessential cookies, or manage cookie preferences.

You may change your preferences through the Website’s cookie settings when that feature is available.

Rejecting nonessential cookies should prevent optional analytics and advertising technologies from operating where technically supported and legally required. Strictly necessary cookies may remain active.

9. Browser Settings

Most browsers allow you to review, block, or delete cookies. Instructions are typically available through the browser’s privacy or security settings.

Blocking cookies may affect Website appearance, functionality, embedded content, forms, or saved preferences. Deleting cookies may also remove your saved consent selection, which means the Website may ask you to select your preferences again.

10. Advertising Choices

You may manage personalized advertising through Facebook and Instagram advertising preferences, your browser’s privacy settings, our Website cookie controls, the Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out tool, the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out tool, or a supported browser-based opt-out preference signal.

The availability and effectiveness of these tools may depend on your location, browser, device, and whether you are signed into a particular service.

11. Global Privacy Control

Where required by applicable law and supported by our systems, we will treat a recognized Global Privacy Control signal as a request to opt out of qualifying targeted advertising or sharing of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.

12. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy when our technologies, service providers, advertising practices, or legal obligations change.

The revised Cookie Policy will be posted on this page with an updated effective date.
