2. Legal Basis and Purposes of Cookie Use
We use cookies in accordance with globally recognized privacy protection standards (including the principles established by the EU GDPR), adhering to the principle of data minimization, and solely for the following legitimate purposes:
- To ensure the normal operation of cross-border purchasing agent services, maintaining continuous and stable login, ordering, payment, and order processing;
- To record user language, currency, preference settings, and cookie consent preferences, simplifying repetitive operations and optimizing the browsing experience;
- To protect account security, prevent payment fraud and malicious access, and safeguard user account and transaction security;
- To aggregate and analyze website traffic and usage data, improving website functionality and service experience;
- To send, based on the user's voluntary explicit consent, service notifications and promotional information tailored to purchasing needs. Users may withdraw consent at any time.
3. Cookie Categories and Detailed Usage 3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies (Essential for Core Services) These cookies are fundamental to the operation of our purchasing agent services. They are necessary for the performance of the service contract and are enabled automatically without user consent. Disabling them will cause core functions such as login, ordering, and payment to malfunction.
4. Third-Party Cookie Notice
Certain functions on our website are provided by authorized third-party service providers who may set cookies to support their respective services. The data processing activities related to third-party cookies are governed by that third party's privacy policy. Users may manage third-party cookies at any time through browser settings or our website's privacy settings.
5. Your Control Rights Over Cookies
We fully respect your right to control all non-essential cookies. You may enable, disable, withdraw consent for, or clear cookie data at any time through the following methods:
5.1 Website Preference Settings: Use the "Cookie Settings" link in the website footer to enable or disable all non-essential cookies with one click. Changes take effect immediately. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled as they are essential for core service operation.
5.2 Browser-Based Management: You may view, disable, or clear all cookie data from our website through your browser's "Privacy & Security" settings. Clearing cookies will reset all personalized preferences. Disabling all cookies globally will prevent our core purchasing and payment services from functioning normally; this decision rests solely with you.
5.3 Do Not Track (DNT): Our website fully supports the browser DNT mechanism. When you enable the DNT function, our website will automatically cease all non-essential cookie collection and tracking, retaining only strictly necessary cookies to ensure basic service operation.
6. Cross-Border Data Transfer of Cookie Data
Due to the needs of cross-border service operations, anonymized and de-identified cookie data may be stored and processed on servers located outside your jurisdiction. We have implemented compliance safeguards, including Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC), to bind data recipients to secure data custody and prevent leakage, misuse, or unlawful transfer, ensuring data processing complies with applicable legal requirements.
7. Protection of Minors Our services are intended solely for adult users. We do not provide services to minors and will not knowingly collect or retain any cookie or access data from minors. If it is verified that data belonging to a minor has been retained, we will promptly delete the corresponding data.
