Cookie Policy
Last updated: 25 March 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how The Kiwi Spin ("we", "us") uses cookies, pixels, SDKs and similar technologies on thekiwispin.com. It should be read with our Privacy Policy and reflects expectations under the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020.
What are cookies and similar technologies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. Similar technologies include local storage, web beacons/pixels, and mobile/website SDKs. They help run the site, remember settings, measure performance, and support advertising measurement.
Cookie categories we use
| Category | Purpose | Typical retention |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Security, network management, page navigation, fraud prevention, and essential features (e.g., login/session). | Session to up to 12 months (depends on function). |
| Preferences | Remember choices like language, region, and UI settings. | Typically 1–12 months. |
| Analytics | Understand usage (pages visited, clicks, device/browser info), improve site performance and content. | Typically 1 day–24 months (provider settings apply). |
| Advertising measurement | Measure ad performance, prevent fraud, limit frequency, and attribute conversions. May use pixels/SDKs and hashed identifiers for enhanced measurement where enabled. | Typically 30 days–24 months (provider settings apply). |
Note: Not all categories will be active at all times. Where required, non-essential cookies are set based on your choices.
Third-party technologies
We may use third-party services for analytics and advertising measurement (for example, Google Analytics and Google Ads conversion/remarketing tags). These providers may set their own cookies and collect information about your interactions with our site. Their processing is governed by their policies.
- Google policies: Cookies & technologies and Privacy.
- Ad controls: Google My Ad Center and Google Analytics opt-out.
Your choices and controls
- Cookie banner/settings: If available on our site, you can accept or refuse non-essential categories and change choices later.
- Browser/device settings: You can delete cookies and block some or all cookies. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect site functionality.
- Do Not Track: Some browsers send a DNT signal; there is no consistent industry standard for responding, so we treat it as a preference signal where feasible.
Updates to this policy
We may update this policy to reflect changes to technologies, legal requirements, or our practices. The “Last updated” date shows when changes were made.
