This Cookie Policy explains how My Home Bee (“My Home Bee,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit https://myhomebee.com/ (the “Site”).
This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which provides additional information about how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your browser or device when you visit a website. They allow websites to recognize a browser, remember preferences, provide essential functionality, maintain security, and understand how visitors interact with content.
Some cookies remain only for the duration of your browsing session and are deleted when you close your browser. Others may remain on your device for a specified period or until you delete them.
2. Similar Technologies
In addition to cookies, the Site and its service providers may use similar technologies, including:
- Pixels and web beacons.
- Tags and scripts.
- Local storage.
- Device and browser identifiers.
- Software development kits and comparable technologies.
In this policy, we refer to cookies and these related technologies collectively as “Cookies.”
3. Who Sets Cookies?
Cookies used on the Site may be set by:
- My Home Bee: Cookies set through our website are commonly called first-party cookies.
- Shopify: Shopify hosts and supports the Site and may set Cookies necessary for security, functionality, analytics, privacy preferences, and platform services.
- Third-party service providers: Analytics, advertising, communication, security, or other providers may set Cookies when their services are enabled on the Site.
Third-party Cookies are controlled by the organization that sets them and are subject to that organization’s privacy and cookie policies.
4. Categories of Cookies We May Use
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These Cookies are required for the Site to operate securely and provide basic functionality. They may support:
- Website navigation and page loading.
- Security and fraud prevention.
- Network management.
- Privacy and cookie-preference settings.
- Session management.
- Shopping-cart or store functionality when available.
Because these Cookies are necessary to provide the Site or a feature you request, they generally cannot be disabled through our consent tool. You may be able to block them through your browser, but parts of the Site may then stop working properly.
Functional Cookies
Functional Cookies help the Site remember choices and provide enhanced features. They may remember:
- Language or regional preferences.
- Display preferences.
- Previously selected settings.
- Other choices intended to improve your experience.
If you reject functional Cookies, some preferences may not be retained between visits.
Analytics and Performance Cookies
Analytics Cookies help us understand how visitors find and use the Site. Information collected may include:
- Pages viewed.
- Links clicked.
- Time spent on the Site.
- Referring websites or sources.
- Browser and device information.
- General interaction and performance data.
We may use Shopify’s analytics features and other analytics services when enabled. The information helps us evaluate content performance, identify technical problems, and improve the visitor experience.
Where required by law, analytics Cookies will be used only after obtaining your consent.
Advertising and Targeting Cookies
If advertising or marketing technologies are enabled, these Cookies may be used to:
- Measure advertising effectiveness.
- Limit how often an advertisement is displayed.
- Understand interactions with marketing content.
- Build an understanding of interests across websites.
- Support targeted or personalized advertising.
These Cookies may involve the disclosure of online identifiers or activity information to advertising partners. Depending on applicable law, this activity may be considered targeted advertising, sharing, or a sale of personal information.
Where required, advertising and targeting Cookies will not be activated until you provide consent.
5. Shopify Cookies
The Site is hosted on Shopify. Shopify uses Cookies and similar technologies to provide hosting, security, network functionality, analytics, privacy settings, and other platform services.
The specific Cookies used by Shopify may change as Shopify updates its platform and services. For current information about Shopify’s practices, review:
6. Affiliate Links and Third-Party Retailers
Some My Home Bee articles may contain affiliate links to third-party retailers, including Amazon.
When you click an affiliate link and leave My Home Bee, the destination website may set its own Cookies to recognize the referral, measure activity, remember preferences, process a purchase, or provide its services.
Cookies placed after you arrive on a third-party retailer’s website are controlled by that retailer, not by My Home Bee. Review the retailer’s privacy and cookie policies for information about its practices and available controls.
My Home Bee participates in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program.

7. Cookie Duration
Cookies may remain on your device for different periods:
- Session Cookies: These are generally deleted when you close your browser.
- Persistent Cookies: These remain for a defined period or until you delete them.
The duration of a Cookie depends on its purpose and the settings selected by the organization that placed it. Because providers may update their technologies, specific Cookie names and durations can change over time.
8. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
Where available, you can use the cookie banner or “Manage Cookie Preferences” option on the Site to:
- Accept non-essential Cookies.
- Reject non-essential Cookies.
- Choose which categories of optional Cookies you allow.
- Change or withdraw your previous consent.
Your choice generally applies to the browser and device you are currently using. If you use another browser or device, delete your Cookies, or reset your browser, you may need to make your selection again.
9. Browser Controls
Most browsers allow you to view, block, or delete Cookies through their settings. The method varies by browser and version, so consult your browser’s help documentation for current instructions.
Blocking all Cookies may affect the Site’s performance and prevent necessary features from working correctly.
10. Consent
Where applicable law requires consent, we request permission before placing or accessing non-essential Cookies on your device.
You may withdraw consent at any time through the available cookie-preference controls. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing that occurred before withdrawal.
Strictly necessary Cookies may continue to operate because they are required to provide the Site, maintain security, remember privacy choices, or respond to a service you request.
11. Global Privacy Control and Other Signals
Where required by applicable law and supported by our systems, the Site may recognize browser-based privacy preference signals, such as Global Privacy Control, as a request to opt out of qualifying sales or sharing of personal information.
Not all browsers, technologies, or privacy signals operate in the same way. You may also use the Site’s available privacy controls to manage your preferences.
12. Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes to the Site, Shopify, service providers, technology, legal requirements, or our use of Cookies.
When we make changes, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. If a change is material, we may provide additional notice where required by law.
