This Cookie Policy explains how Gooden Design Company (“we,” “our,” or “us”) uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit goodendesign.com. We believe in keeping things simple and minimal — we do not use tracking or advertising cookies, and we do not sell data.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function correctly, improve performance, and provide information to the website owner.
Similar technologies — such as web beacons, pixel tags, and local storage — may also be used by third-party services operating on our website. This policy covers all such technologies collectively referred to as “cookies.”
2. Cookies We Use
Our website uses a minimal number of cookies. We do not use advertising or behavioral tracking cookies. The cookies present on our site are primarily set by Cloudflare, our infrastructure and security provider.
Note: Cloudflare cookies are essential to the secure operation of this website. They cannot be disabled without impacting site functionality and security. They do not track you across other websites or build advertising profiles.
3. Essential vs. Analytics Cookies
Essential Cookies
These are strictly necessary for the website to function. They cannot be switched off in our systems. They include the Cloudflare security cookies described above. They do not store personally identifiable information.
Analytics Cookies
We currently do not use analytics cookies on this website. We do not use Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, or similar tracking tools that would set cookies on your device.
4. Third-Party Cookies
The only third-party cookies present on our website are those set by Cloudflare as part of their CDN and security services. Cloudflare operates independently and their cookie usage is governed by the Cloudflare Privacy Policy.
We do not embed third-party social media widgets, advertising networks, or cross-site tracking scripts that would set additional cookies on your device.
5. How to Manage Cookies
You can control and manage cookies in several ways. Please note that removing or blocking certain cookies may impact your experience of our website.
Browser Settings
Most browsers allow you to view, manage, delete, and block cookies for a specific website. Here's how to do it in common browsers:
- Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Mozilla Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Apple Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Microsoft Edge: Settings → Privacy, search, and services → Cookies and site permissions
Opting Out of Cloudflare
Because Cloudflare cookies are essential to the security and performance of this website, they cannot be individually opted out of without using browser-level cookie blocking. Blocking these cookies may result in degraded functionality or an inability to access the site if security challenges cannot be completed.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically to stay informed about our use of cookies.
