4. Types of Cookies We May Use

Strictly Necessary Cookies

Strictly necessary cookies are required for certain parts of the Website to function properly.

They may be used for purposes such as:

Website security;
fraud prevention;
maintaining user sessions;
remembering privacy preferences;
processing forms;
load balancing;
Website functionality; and
maintaining technical stability.

Because these cookies may be necessary for the Website to function, they generally cannot be disabled through Website cookie preference tools.

You may still be able to block them through your browser settings, although doing so may cause portions of the Website to stop working properly.

Functional Cookies

Functional cookies help provide enhanced functionality and remember choices you make.

For example, they may remember:

language preferences;
display preferences;
previous Website selections;
form settings; or
other customization choices.

If functional cookies are disabled, some personalized Website features may not operate as intended.

They may collect information about:

the number of Website visitors;
pages visited;
traffic sources;
time spent on the Website;
navigation patterns;
links clicked;
browser and device information;
general visitor trends; and
technical performance.

This information helps us understand which parts of the Website are useful and where improvements may be needed.

Where appropriate, analytics information may be aggregated or otherwise processed so that it is not directly used to identify individual visitors.

Advertising and Marketing Cookies

Where used, advertising or marketing cookies may help:

measure the effectiveness of advertising;
understand visitor interests;
measure campaign performance;
prevent repetitive advertising;
create advertising audiences; or
deliver more relevant promotional content.

These cookies may be placed by us or by third-party advertising and marketing providers.

Where required, we will seek appropriate consent before using non-essential advertising or marketing cookies.

Social Media Cookies

The Website may include links, buttons, embeds, widgets, or other features provided by social media platforms.

These features may allow third-party social media services to place cookies or collect information about your interaction with the Website.

Depending on the services used, this may include platforms such as:

Instagram;
Facebook;
LinkedIn;
YouTube;
Pinterest;
TikTok; or
other social platforms.

Your interaction with those services is also governed by the privacy and cookie practices of the applicable third-party platform.

First-Party Cookies

First-party cookies are placed directly by kaitlynnmartins.com or by service providers acting on behalf of the Website.

other Website integrations.

Third parties may use information collected through their technologies according to their own privacy policies and terms.

6. Session and Persistent Cookies

Session Cookies

Session cookies generally remain active only while your browser is open and are deleted when the browsing session ends.

They may be used for temporary Website functions.

Persistent Cookies

Persistent cookies remain stored on your device for a specified period or until you delete them.

They may be used to remember preferences or recognize returning visitors.

The duration of persistent cookies varies depending on the purpose of the cookie and the provider responsible for it.

Analytics providers may collect technical and usage information such as:

IP address;
browser information;
device information;
Website interactions;
page views;
referring pages;
approximate geographic area; and
session activity.

This information may be used to generate aggregated reports about Website performance and visitor behaviour.

Where analytics providers operate outside Canada, information may be processed or stored in other jurisdictions and may therefore be subject to the laws of those jurisdictions.

Additional information will be available through the privacy policies of the applicable analytics provider.

8. Embedded Content

Some pages may include content provided by third parties.

Examples may include:

videos;
maps;
social media posts;
property information;
booking tools;
forms;
publications;
digital media;
or other interactive content.

When you interact with embedded third-party content, the provider may place cookies or collect information about your interaction.

We do not control the cookies placed directly by third-party providers.

You should review the privacy and cookie policies of those providers for more information.

real estate websites;
venture websites;
social media profiles;

other third-party services.

Once you leave kaitlynnmartins.com, the cookies and privacy practices of the destination website will apply.

10. Cookie Consent

Where required by applicable law, non-essential cookies will be used only after obtaining appropriate consent.

You may be presented with a cookie banner, consent notice, or preference centre when visiting the Website.

Depending on the Website functionality available, you may be able to:

accept all cookies;
reject non-essential cookies;
select specific cookie categories; or
update your preferences later.

Strictly necessary cookies may remain active because they are required to provide Website functionality or security.

11. Changing Your Cookie Preferences

Where a cookie preference tool is available on the Website, you may use it to review or change your cookie selections.

Changing your preferences generally affects future cookie activity.

Some previously stored cookies may remain on your device until you remove them through your browser settings.

12. Managing Cookies Through Your Browser

Most browsers allow you to manage cookies through their settings.

Depending on your browser, you may be able to:

see which cookies are stored;
delete cookies;
block all cookies;
block third-party cookies;
receive warnings before cookies are stored; or
configure different settings for different websites.

Common browsers offering cookie management settings include:

Google Chrome;
Apple Safari;

Microsoft Edge; and
other modern browsers.

The exact process varies by browser and device.

Please consult your browser's help or privacy settings for instructions.

13. What Happens If You Disable Cookies?

You may choose to block or disable cookies.

However, doing so may affect how the Website functions.

For example, certain preferences may not be remembered and some Website features, embedded content, forms, or integrations may not operate correctly.

Blocking non-essential cookies should generally not prevent you from accessing basic Website content.

14. Do Not Track Signals

Some web browsers allow users to send a "Do Not Track" or similar privacy preference signal.

Because there is not always a consistent industry standard governing how websites must respond to all such signals, the Website may not automatically respond to every browser-based Do Not Track request.

Where required by applicable law or supported by the Website's technology, recognized privacy preference signals may be honoured.

15. Personal Information and Cookies

Information collected through cookies may, in some circumstances, qualify as personal information.

Where that occurs, the information will be handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable privacy laws.

Depending on the circumstances, this may include information relating to:

online identifiers;
IP addresses;
browsing activity;
device information;
communication preferences; or
Website interactions.

16. Third-Party Processing

Some service providers used to operate or support the Website may process information on our behalf.

Those providers may operate or store information in Canada, the United States, or other jurisdictions.

As a result, information processed outside Canada may be subject to lawful access by courts, governments, law enforcement agencies, or other authorities under the laws of the applicable jurisdiction.

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of third-party providers where relevant.

17. Children's Privacy

The Website is intended for a general audience and is not designed primarily for children.

We do not knowingly use cookies for the purpose of creating behavioural advertising profiles of children through this Website.

If you believe personal information relating to a child has been collected improperly, please contact us.

changes to Website functionality;

It should be read together with our:

Privacy Policy;
Terms of Use; and
any other notices or policies that apply to specific Website features.

If another policy contains more specific terms regarding a particular service or feature, those more specific terms may apply to that service or feature.
