Cookie Policy
Last updated: August 2026
This policy explains which cookies laurentidemontreal.com uses, what they do and how you can control them. It sits alongside our Privacy Policy.
What a cookie is
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit a website. It lets the site remember things between pages and between visits — what is in your basket, which language you use, whether you are logged in. Similar technologies such as pixels, tags and local storage work in comparable ways and are covered by this policy.
The cookies we use
Strictly necessary
These make the store work. Without them you cannot add items to your basket or complete a purchase, so they cannot be switched off.
- Keeping your shopping basket filled as you move between pages
- Securing the checkout and detecting fraudulent activity
- Remembering your cookie preferences
- Balancing traffic across servers so pages load
Set by: Shopify.
Functional
These remember choices you have made, so the store behaves the way you expect on your next visit — recently viewed products, for example, or a dismissed notification.
Set by: Shopify.
Analytics
These tell us how the store is used: which pages are visited, which products are viewed, where visitors leave. The data is aggregated and used to improve the site.
Set by: Shopify Analytics, Google Analytics.
Marketing and advertising
These measure whether our advertising works and, where you have consented, allow relevant advertisements to be shown to you on other platforms. They can recognise your device across websites.
Set by: Meta (Facebook and Instagram), Google, Triple Whale, Klaviyo.
How long cookies last
Session cookies are deleted the moment you close your browser. Persistent cookies stay on your device for a set period — from a few days for basket cookies up to around two years for advertising cookies.
Managing cookies
Every browser lets you view, block and delete cookies. You will find the setting under Privacy or Security in your browser preferences.
Blocking strictly necessary cookies will stop the store from working: you will not be able to keep items in your basket or check out.
You can also opt out of advertising cookies directly with the providers:
- Meta — through your Facebook or Instagram advertising preferences
- Google — through Google Ads Settings
- Industry-wide — through youradchoices.ca in Canada or youronlinechoices.eu in Europe
Most mobile devices also offer a system-level setting to limit ad tracking.
Changes to this policy
We update this policy when the cookies we use change. The date at the top always shows the most recent version.
