Cookie Policy

Effective Date: May 2026

Welcome to Dr. Watchson. This Cookie Policy explains how our website uses cookies, web beacons, pixels, and tracking technologies to enhance your browsing experience, analyze site performance, and deliver personalized marketing tailored to your interests.

By continuing to navigate our store, you acknowledge and agree to the use of these technologies as outlined below.

1. What are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files containing pieces of data that a website transfers to your computer's hard drive or mobile device while you browse. They help web applications recognize your device, remember your preferences (such as language, currency, and shopping cart contents), and guarantee a secure shopping experience.

2. How Dr. Watchson Uses Cookies

We use cookies to ensure operational efficiency, optimize our Shopify infrastructure, and understand user behavior. The cookies utilized on our store generally fall into the following four categories:

  • Strictly Necessary Cookies: These are essential for the core functioning of the store. They enable basic features like secure user login, page navigation, and the retention of items in your shopping cart as you proceed to checkout. The website cannot function correctly without these.

  • Performance & Analytics Cookies: These collect anonymous information about how visitors interact with our website. They measure metrics such as page load speeds, bounce rates, and traffic sources. This data allows us to optimize our user interface and resolve performance bottlenecks.

  • Functionality Cookies: These allow our website to remember choices you make (such as your preferred region or currency) to provide a more personalized, fluid shopping journey.

  • Targeting & Advertising Cookies (Tracking Pixels): These cookies track your browsing habits across our site to deliver targeted, high-relevance advertisements on third-party platforms (such as Facebook, Instagram, and Google). They also limit the number of times you see a specific ad and measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns.

3. Integrated Third-Party Tracking (Meta Pixels & Ads)

To provide tailored product recommendations for our custom watch modification kits, Dr. Watchson integrates advanced tracking networks, specifically the Meta Pixel and Meta Conversions API.

  • These tools transmit data regarding your actions on our website (such as viewing a specific watch kit or adding an item to the cart) directly to Meta Platforms Inc.

  • This integration allows us to optimize our advertising costs, ensure you only see ads relevant to your interests, and build custom audiences for our marketing campaigns.

  • All data processed through these pixels is handled in accordance with Meta’s Data Policy.

4. Managing and Controlling Cookies

You have the right to accept, decline, or modify your cookie settings at any time. Please note that restricting certain cookies may negatively impact your user experience and prevent you from utilizing essential shopping features (such as keeping items in your cart).

4.1 Browser Settings

Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can alter your browser configuration to decline cookies or alert you when a cookie is being placed.

4.2 Opting Out of Targeted Advertising

To opt out of interest-based advertising and tracking across platforms, you can utilize the following industry opt-out portals:

  • Digital Advertising Alliance (USA): optout.aboutads.info

  • European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance (EU): youronlinechoices.eu

  • Meta Ad Settings: You can adjust your ad preferences directly within your Facebook or Instagram account settings to limit pixel-targeted ads.

5. Updates to this Policy

We reserve the right to update or modify this Cookie Policy at any time to reflect changes in legal requirements or adjustments to our tracking technologies. Any changes will be posted immediately on this page with an updated effective date.
