1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites work properly, remember certain choices, improve performance, and, where enabled, measure traffic or support marketing.

Cookies may be set directly by this website or by third-party services used on the website.

2. Why we use cookies

Blessed Compass may use cookies to:

  • make the website work properly;
  • remember your cookie preferences;
  • protect the website from spam, abuse, or security threats;
  • understand how visitors use the website, if analytics are enabled;
  • display embedded content, such as videos or social media content, if used;
  • support online purchases, if a shop is added later;
  • support advertising or retargeting, if marketing tools are added later.

We do not use non-essential cookies unless they are enabled on the website and, where required, you have given consent.

3. Types of cookies we may use

Necessary cookies

Necessary cookies are required for the website to function correctly. These may include cookies for security, cookie consent settings, website login, forms, page loading, and basic WordPress functionality.

These cookies do not require prior consent because they are needed to provide the website service. The European Commission gives examples of operational cookies that are needed for a website to function, such as authentication and technical cookies. (European Commission)

Preferences cookies

Preference cookies may remember choices you make, such as cookie consent settings or display preferences.

These cookies help improve usability but are not always essential.

Statistics or analytics cookies

Statistics cookies help us understand how visitors use the website. For example, they may show which pages are visited, how long visitors stay, and how people find the site.

At the moment, Blessed Compass should only include this section if analytics tools are actually active, such as Google Analytics, Plausible, Matomo, Jetpack Stats, or another analytics provider.

If analytics cookies are used, they will be activated only where allowed by law and, where required, after consent.

Marketing cookies

Marketing cookies may be used to show relevant content or measure advertising results. These may include tools such as Meta Pixel, Pinterest Tag, Google Ads, affiliate tracking, or similar services.

Blessed Compass does not need this section active unless those marketing tools are installed.

If marketing cookies are used in the future, they will be activated only where allowed by law and, where required, after consent.

Embedded content cookies

Some pages may include embedded content from other websites, such as YouTube videos, Pinterest pins, Instagram posts, or other third-party content.

Embedded content behaves as if you visited the third-party website directly. These services may set their own cookies, collect data, and track your interaction with their content.

Where required, embedded content that sets non-essential cookies will be blocked until consent is given.

4. Current use of cookies

At this stage, Blessed Compass is a new website and may only use basic functional cookies needed for WordPress, security, and cookie consent management.

If analytics, advertising pixels, social embeds, WooCommerce, payment tools, or email marketing tools are added later, this Cookie Policy will be updated.

The exact cookies used on this website may change depending on which plugins, tools, or services are active.

5. Managing cookie consent

When you first visit this website, you may see a cookie banner that allows you to accept, reject, or manage non-essential cookies.

You can change or withdraw your cookie consent at any time through the cookie settings link or cookie banner preferences, where available.

Consent should be freely given, specific, informed, and easy to withdraw. GDPR Article 13 also requires transparency about identity, contact details, purposes, legal basis, retention, and user rights when personal data is collected. (GDPR)

6. Managing cookies in your browser

You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block cookies, delete cookies, or receive a warning before cookies are stored.

If you block all cookies, some parts of this website may not work properly.

7. Third-party services

Blessed Compass may use third-party services to operate the website. These may include:

  • website hosting providers;
  • security or spam protection tools;
  • cookie consent tools;
  • analytics providers, if enabled;
  • email marketing providers, if enabled;
  • payment processors, if ecommerce is enabled;
  • video or social media platforms, if embedded content is used.

These third parties may process data according to their own privacy and cookie policies.

8. Visitors from outside the European Union

Blessed Compass receives visitors from different countries. This Cookie Policy is written to provide clear information for all visitors.

Because Blessed Compass is operated from Portugal, we use EU privacy and cookie standards as a baseline. Visitors outside the EU may also have privacy rights under their local laws.

9. Updates to this Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time when we change the cookies, plugins, analytics tools, advertising tools, ecommerce tools, or other services used on this website.

The “Last updated” date at the top of this page will show when this policy was last changed.
