Everest Active Pty Ltd (ABN: 66 199 047 766) (“Everest Active”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit or interact with https://everestactive.com.au and any related websites, online stores, content, tools, or services (collectively, the “Services”). This Cookies Policy explains what cookies are, how and why we use them, how third parties may use them, and how you can manage your preferences. This policy forms part of our Privacy Policy and should be read together with it.

1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device, whether a computer, mobile, or tablet, when you visit a website. They allow websites to recognise your device, remember your preferences, improve functionality, enhance security, and analyse usage patterns. Cookies may be session-based, which are deleted when you close your browser, or persistent, which remain stored on your device until they expire or are manually deleted.

2. Why We Use Cookies
We use cookies for legitimate business, operational, and security purposes. This includes operating and securing our website and online store, enabling essential functionality such as checkout, login, cart, and payments, improving website performance and user experience, and analysing traffic, behaviour, and usage trends. Cookies also help prevent fraud, abuse, and unauthorised access, and allow us to deliver relevant content and marketing where permitted. Some cookies are essential for the Services to function properly and cannot be disabled without affecting your experience.

3. Types of Cookies We Use
We use several categories of cookies to optimise our Services:

a. Essential Cookies (Strictly Necessary)
These cookies are required for the operation and security of our Services. They enable features such as secure login, shopping cart and checkout, payment processing, and fraud prevention. Without these cookies, the website cannot function as intended.

b. Performance & Analytics Cookies
These cookies collect aggregated and anonymised data about how users interact with our Services. This includes information about pages visited, time spent on pages, error messages, and traffic sources. Such data helps us enhance website performance, usability, and overall business operations.

c. Functional Cookies
Functional cookies remember your preferences and settings, such as language and region, display preferences, and saved login sessions. While not strictly necessary, they enhance convenience and provide a personalised experience.

d. Advertising & Marketing Cookies
Advertising and marketing cookies may be used to show relevant advertisements, limit ad frequency, measure campaign performance, and support remarketing and interest-based advertising. Where required by law, your consent will be obtained before using these cookies.

4. Shopify & Third-Party Cookies
Our Services are powered by Shopify, which places certain cookies necessary for e-commerce functionality, fraud prevention, and secure transactions. We may also allow trusted third-party service providers to place cookies, including analytics providers, advertising and marketing partners, and payment or fraud-prevention services. All third parties are contractually required to handle data securely and lawfully. Everest Active does not sell personal information for profit.

5. Managing Cookies & Your Choices
You have the option to manage or disable cookies at any time. This can be done by adjusting your browser settings to block or delete cookies, using browser privacy or consent tools, enabling Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals where supported, or opting out of targeted advertising through recognised industry platforms. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect website functionality, performance, or your ability to access parts of our Services.

6. Legal Basis & Compliance
Everest Active uses cookies in compliance with applicable privacy laws, including the Australian Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), Australian Privacy Principles (APPs), GDPR (EU/UK), CCPA / CPRA (California), and other relevant international privacy regulations. Where consent is required, we will not use cookies without obtaining it first.

7. Updates to This Cookies Policy
We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in legal or regulatory requirements, technological developments, or business and operational needs. Updates take effect upon posting to this page, and your continued use of our Services constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
