Cookie Policy

About cookies

Effective date: November 13, 2026

Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser. Similar tools, such as pixels and tags, do the same job. This policy explains which ones Green Explorers Club ("GEC," "we," "us") uses on greenexplorersclub.com and how you can control them. It is part of our Privacy Policy.

We do not sell the information our cookies collect.

Cookies we use

Type What it does Examples Can you turn it off?
Essential Keeps the site working: your cart, login, checkout, security and your cookie choices Shopify (cart, _shopify_essential, _tracking_consent, _shopify_cmp, localization) No. The site cannot work without them
Preferences Remembers settings such as country, recently viewed items, and which event announcements you have already seen Shopify; our events calendar app (EventShopifyKaktusApp...) Yes
Analytics Shows us which pages people visit, how they found us and how they use the site, so we can improve it Shopify Analytics, Microsoft Clarity (_clck, _clsk) Yes
Advertising Measures our ads and shows GEC ads to past visitors on other sites Meta Pixel (_fbp), Pinterest Tag (_pin_unauth, _pinterest_ct) Yes

Essential cookies last up to one year. Others last from 30 minutes to about two years, depending on the tool. Our site also loads fonts and code libraries from Google's content networks (Google Fonts, Google Hosted Libraries); these do not set cookies.

Third-party tools

Some cookies and pixels come from other companies that provide services to us, such as Shopify, Meta, Pinterest and Microsoft. When you use our site, these companies may collect information about your browser, device, the pages you visit and actions you take, such as adding an item to your cart. They may also collect information about your activity across other websites over time. Their use of this information is governed by their own privacy policies.

We only turn on analytics and advertising tools after you accept them in our cookie banner. Our site is meant for adults, and we do not knowingly use cookies to track children.

Your choices

  • Cookie banner: When you first visit, you can accept or decline analytics and advertising cookies. To change your choice later, click Cookie Preferences at the bottom of any page.
  • Browser settings: You can block or delete cookies in your browser. If you block essential cookies, your cart and checkout may not work.
  • Ad opt-outs: You can opt out of interest-based ads from many companies at optout.aboutads.info, and adjust your ad settings with Meta and Pinterest.
  • Global Privacy Control: If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as a request to turn off advertising cookies.
  • Do Not Track: Our site does not currently respond to browser "Do Not Track" signals, because there is no common standard for them. Use the cookie banner or Global Privacy Control instead.

Changes and contact

  • Changes: We may update this policy when we add or remove tools. The current version and its effective date are posted on this page.
