Cookie Policy & Digital Footprint Disclosure

Introduction

Last Updated: 4th September 2026

To ensure your journey through the Wyrd Enchantress digital sanctuary (https://www.wyrdenchantress.com/) is smooth, secure, and intuitive, we utilize cookies and tracking technologies. This policy details what cookies are, how we deploy them, and your sovereign rights to control them.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small, benign text files placed onto your computer, tablet, or mobile device by websites that you visit. They act as a memory aid for the website, allowing it to recognise your device, remember your preferences, and maintain secure connections.

Lifespans: Cookies can be "Session Cookies" (temporary memory tokens that dissolve the moment you close your browser) or "Persistent Cookies" (which rest quietly on your device for a designated period to remember you when you return).

2. How We Use Cookies

Wyrd Enchantress uses cookies across a few distinct categories to respect both your user experience and search engine optimization (EEAT) metrics:

Essential / Necessary Cookies: These are vital for basic website operation. They allow you to securely navigate our sanctuary, use shopping carts for bookings, and stay logged into restricted course areas if applicable. Without these, the website cannot function correctly.
Performance & Analytical Cookies: We use these tools to understand how visitors find our site and interact with our spiritual blog or service pages. This data is entirely aggregated and anonymized; it helps us know which pieces of ancient lore or shamanic insights are resonating most with our community.
Functionality Cookies: These remember choices you make (such as your preferred text sizes or language preferences) to provide a more tailored, easeful experience during return visits.

3. Third-Party Cookies

When you navigate our site, you may encounter cookies set by third-party services that we use to enhance your experience. Examples include:

Acuity Scheduling / Cal.com / Booking Platforms: To manage your calendar bookings seamlessly.
Stripe / PayPal: To manage encrypted, legal payment transactions safely.
YouTube / Vimeo: Used to securely embed our introductory 76-second sanctuary video so you can watch it seamlessly on our pages.

4. Taking Sovereignty Over Your Cookies

You have the absolute right to choose whether to accept or block cookies.

Sanctuary Banner: Upon your first visit, a cookie banner will prompt you to consent to performance or functional cookies. Essential cookies will run automatically to keep the site secure.
Browser Control: You can modify your internet browser settings to refuse cookies or to alert you when a cookie is being sent. To learn how to manage cookies on popular browsers, visit All About Cookies.
Holistic Alignment: This policy integrates directly with our broader Privacy Policy & Digital Sanctuary Shield. For a complete view of how we honor and protect your personal data, please review our full Privacy Policy.

Please note that blocking all cookies may impact your ability to use certain interactive parts of our site, such as booking tools or media streams.

5. Updates & Questions

We may refresh this Cookie Policy occasionally to match modern technology updates or legal changes. For any inquiries regarding how your digital presence is managed here, please reach out via emma@wyrdenchantress.com.
