Oleaviva – Cookie Policy
Last updated: November 2025
1. About this Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how Oleaviva di Rizza Chiara ("Oleaviva", "we", "us", "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on the website www.oleaviva.com and any related subdomains (the "Site").
It should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect, use and share personal information.
By clicking "Accept" on our cookie banner, or by continuing to browse the Site (where this is a valid basis under applicable law), you agree to the use of cookies as described in this Policy. In the EU/EEA and UK, we only use non-essential cookies (for example, analytics and advertising cookies) if you have given your consent through our cookie banner or preference centre.

2. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, smartphone) when you visit a website.
They allow the website to recognise your device and store certain information about your preferences or actions, for example:
- keeping items in your shopping cart,
- remembering your language or region,
- understanding how many visitors a page receives.
We may also use similar technologies such as pixels, tags, scripts and local storage. For simplicity, we refer to all of these as "cookies" in this Policy.
3. Types of cookies we use
We use the following main types of cookies on our Site:
a) Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are essential for the operation of the Site and for enabling core functions such as:
- navigating pages,
- adding items to the cart,
- checkout and payment,
- logging into your account.
Without these cookies, the Site cannot function properly. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms.
Because they are strictly necessary, these cookies do not require your consent.
b) Performance and analytics cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors use our Site, for example:
- which pages are visited most often,
- how visitors move around the Site,
- if certain pages generate error messages.
We use this information in aggregated form to:
- improve the performance and design of the Site,
- measure and improve the effectiveness of our content and campaigns.
Where required by law (for example, in the EU/EEA and UK), we only use analytics cookies if you have consented via the cookie banner or preference centre.
c) Functional cookies
These cookies allow the Site to remember choices you make, such as:
- language preferences,
- region,
- saved details (where you choose this),
- enhanced features like saved carts or wishlists.
They are not strictly necessary, but they can improve your experience.
d) Advertising and targeting cookies
If and when we use advertising cookies, they may be set by us or by our advertising partners to:
- build a profile of your interests,
- show you relevant ads on other websites or social media,
- measure the performance of our advertising campaigns.
These cookies do not usually store directly identifiable information, but are based on unique identifiers in your browser or device.
In the EU/EEA and UK, we use advertising cookies only with your consent. You can withdraw your consent at any time via our cookie banner / preference centre or by adjusting your browser settings.
4. Cookies used on our Site
The cookies we use on the Site may fall into two broad categories:
- first-party cookies – set by Oleaviva (or by Shopify on our behalf as our ecommerce provider); - third-party cookies – set by other sites or services (for example, Google, Meta) to provide analytics, advertising or social features.
Below are the main groups of cookies you may encounter. The specific cookies may change over time as we update our Site and services.
4.1 Shopify cookies (ecommerce platform)
Our online store is powered by Shopify. Shopify uses cookies to:
- enable the shopping cart and checkout;
- maintain your session on the Site;
- help with fraud prevention;
- perform basic analytics on store performance.
Examples (names may change over time):
- cookies that:
- keep track of your cart contents,
- link your session to the checkout,
- remember whether you are logged in as a customer,
- help prevent repeated fraudulent transactions.
These cookies are generally strictly necessary for the operation of the store or used for basic analytics. For more information on how Shopify uses cookies, visit Shopify's own cookie and privacy notices.
4.2 Analytics cookies (e.g. Google Analytics)
We may use Google Analytics or similar tools to understand how visitors use the Site and to improve our content and layout.
These cookies collect, for example:
- anonymised or pseudonymised IP address,
- information about the device and browser,
- pages visited and time spent on each page,
- referring page (where you came from).
In the EU/EEA and UK, analytics cookies are used only if you have given your consent. You can also install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on if you prefer.
4.3 Advertising and social media cookies
If we run campaigns through platforms like Google Ads or Meta Ads (Facebook / Instagram), those platforms may set cookies or similar technologies on your device to:
- track whether you have visited the Site after clicking on an ad,
- measure the performance of our ads,
- build aggregated "audiences" for our campaigns.
These cookies may also be used by those platforms to personalise ads you see on their services, in accordance with their own privacy and cookie policies.
In the EU/EEA and UK, advertising cookies are only used if you have given your consent.
5. How long do cookies stay on your device?
Cookies can be:
- session cookies – deleted automatically when you close your browser;
- persistent cookies – remain on your device until they expire or you delete them.
The retention period depends on the purpose of the cookie and is set by us or by the third party that places the cookie.
In general:
- strictly necessary cookies often last only for the session or a short period;
- analytics and advertising cookies may persist for a few months, and sometimes longer, unless you delete them.
You can find more detailed information about cookie lifetimes in your browser settings or, where provided, in our cookie preference tool.
6. How to manage cookies
You have several options to manage or disable cookies:
a) Cookie banner / preference centre
When you visit the Site from the EU/EEA or the UK, you will see a cookie banner allowing you to:
- accept all cookies,
- reject non-essential cookies,
- or customise your preferences (for example, allow analytics but not advertising).
You can change your preferences at any time by revisiting the banner or preference centre (where available). b) Browser settings
You can also manage cookies directly from your browser. For example, you can:
- block all cookies,
- delete existing cookies,
- set your browser to alert you before a cookie is stored.
The exact steps depend on your browser. You can usually find these settings under "Options", "Settings" or "Privacy". For more information, consult your browser's help menu.
Please note: if you block certain cookies, some features of the Site (such as the cart or checkout) may not function properly.
c) Third-party tools
Some third parties provide their own tools for managing cookies and similar technologies (for example, Google's tools to manage analytics and advertising settings).
You can also visit industry opt-out pages such as:
- Network Advertising Initiative (NAI);
- Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA).
These tools are typically browser-specific and device-specific.
7. Third-party cookies and external sites
Our Site may include:
- links to third-party websites,
- embedded content,
- social media buttons or plugins.
These third parties may set their own cookies when you visit their services or interact with their content on our Site.
We do not control those cookies and are not responsible for how third parties use them. Their use is governed by the cookie and privacy policies of the relevant third party (for example, Google, Meta, Shopify, payment providers).
8. Do Not Track (DNT)
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) setting. There is currently no common industry standard on how to respond to DNT signals.
At this time, our Site does not respond specifically to DNT signals. We will continue to monitor developments and may update this Policy if standards emerge.
9. Changes to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time, for example to reflect:
- changes in the cookies we use,
- changes in our services,
- legal or regulatory developments.
When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, we may provide additional notice (for example, via a banner or email).
We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy periodically.
