This Cookie Policy explains how WPARTS LLC ("WPARTS", "we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our websites, mobile apps and other online services (collectively, the "Services"). This Cookie Policy should be read together with our User Privacy Notice and Terms of Service.
Controller: WPARTS LLC.

2. What are cookies and similar technologies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies include web beacons, pixels, local storage, and device/browser fingerprinting. Cookies can be "session" cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent" cookies (remain for a period).
3. Categories of cookies we use
We use the following categories of cookies:
- Strictly necessary cookies - required for the operation of the Services (e.g., session management, security, shopping cart). These cannot be turned off in our systems.
- Performance / Analytics cookies - collect information about how users interact with the Services (pageviews, errors, load times). We use analytics to improve functionality.
- Functional cookies - remember choices you make (language, region, settings) to provide enhanced features.
- Advertising / Targeting cookies - used to deliver relevant ads and measure ad effectiveness. These cookies may be set by third-party advertisers or partners.
- Social media cookies - enable interaction with social networks and may track your activity across websites.
4. Third-party cookies
Third parties (e.g., analytics providers, advertising networks, social platforms, payment providers) may place cookies on your device through our Services. We publish a list of third-party services we use (or will provide on request) and the purpose and duration of their cookies. Examples include Google Analytics, advertising networks, and social widgets.
5. Legal basis for using cookies
- For users located in the European Economic Area (EEA), the legal basis for non-necessary cookies is your consent. We obtain consent via a cookie banner and provide a settings control where you can accept or reject non-essential categories.
- For users in the United States, including California residents, most laws use an opt-out approach (e.g., CCPA/CPRA): cookies are lawful under our legitimate interests for core site functionality, analytics and fraud prevention; for advertising and any processing that constitutes a “sale” or “sharing”, we provide opt-out mechanisms.
6. How you can control cookies
- Cookie banner / preference center: On your first visit we will present a cookie banner that lets you accept essential cookies only or customize categories. You can change preferences at any time via the cookie preference link in the website footer.
- Browser settings: You may block or delete cookies through your browser settings (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, etc.). Disabling Cookies may affect functionality.
- Opt-out for advertising: You can opt out of many advertising cookies via industry opt-out tools (e.g., Network Advertising Initiative, Digital Advertising Alliance). Links to these tools are provided in our cookie preference center.
- California residents: Use our “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link in the website footer to exercise opt-out rights under the CCPA/CPRA. When you opt out, we will respect your choice for at least 12 months and until you withdraw it.
7. Do cookies constitute a "sale" or "sharing" of personal
information?
Under California law, some advertising and sharing of tracking data with third parties may constitute a “sale” or “sharing.” Where applicable, we identify which cookies/processing might be considered a sale or sharing and provide an opt-out. If you opt out, we will not engage in sale/sharing for targeted advertising purposes.
8. Children's privacy
Our Services are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under applicable age thresholds. If you believe we have collected such information, contact us and we will delete it.
9. Data retention
Cookie identifiers and related logs are retained for different periods depending on cookie type (session cookies deleted on session end; persistent cookies retained for a defined period, typically 30 days up to 24 months depending on purpose). We publish retention periods in the cookie preference center.
10. Security
We maintain administrative, technical and physical safeguards designed to protect cookie data. Third-party providers we work with are required to implement appropriate protections.
11. Changes to this Cookie Policy
We may update this policy. Material changes will be posted with a revised effective date and, where required, notified to users via the Services.
