What are cookies?
Cookies are small pieces of text sent by your web browser from a website you visit. A cookie file is stored in your web browser and allows the website or a third-party service provider to recognise you and make your next visit easier and the website more useful to you. Cookies are essentially a user identification card for the website’s servers.

How Herba Health Shop uses cookies
When you use and access our website, we may place a number of cookie files in your web browser to help us determine and identify returning visitors, the type of content a user of our websites refers to, the amount of time each user spends in a particular area of our website.

The least privacy invasive type of cookies are Essential or Necessary cookies. These cookies are essential or necessary to ensure that a website works properly and is secure so that you can navigate a website and use its features. Without these cookies, certain features of a website would not function, and thus you would not be able to use certain services.
There are also Functional cookies or sometimes called convenience cookies. These cookies allow a website to remember the options a user has made (including user ID`s stored, consents given, or languages selected) and other personalisation options you have selected when browsing.
Further there are also Analysis and performance cookies, which are used to monitor and improve the function and service of a website. Those can track down problems when using a website, facilitate online surveys, record visitor numbers, and provide analytics metrics.
Lastly, advertising cookies or targeting cookies. They are used to deliver customised advertising to the user. This can be very convenient, but also very annoying.
