Cookie information

This generated cookie document was last changed on October 12, 2026, last checked on October 12, 2026 and applies to citizens and legal permanent residents of the United States.

1. Introduction

Our website, https://pawsunboxed.com (hereinafter: “the website”) uses cookies and other related technologies (for convenience all technologies are referred to as “cookies”). Cookies are also placed by third parties we have engaged. In the document below we inform you about the use of cookies on our website.

We do not sell or share personal information to third parties for monetary consideration; however, we may disclose certain personal information to third parties under circumstances that might be deemed a “sale” or “sharing” for residents of California (CPRA), Colorado (CPA), Connecticut (CTDPA), Delaware (PDPA), Indiana (ICDPA), Iowa (CDPA), Kentucky (KCDPA), Minnesota (MCDPA), Maryland (MODPA), Montana (MCDPA), Nebraska (DPA), Nevada (NRS 603A), New Hampshire (DPA), New Jersey (DPL), Oregon (OCPA), Rhode Island (DTPPA), Tennessee (TIPA), Texas (TDPSA), Utah (UCPA) and Virginia (CDPA). We respect and understand that you may want to be sure that your personal information is not being sold or shared.

2. Cookies

When you visit our website it can be necessary to store and/or read certain data from your device by using technologies such as cookies.

2.1 Technical or functional cookies

Some cookies ensure that certain parts of the website work properly and that your user preferences remain known. By placing functional cookies, we make it easier for you to visit our website. For example, these cookies can remember your privacy choices so you do not need to select them on every visit. We may place these cookies without your consent.

2.2 Statistics cookies

We use statistics cookies to optimize the website experience for our users. These cookies help us understand how visitors use our website.

3. Placed cookies

This inventory includes storage used for site administration as well as reader-facing functions. Signed-in WordPress preferences and login records do not necessarily apply to ordinary readers. The listed lifetimes describe documented settings or defaults and may be shortened by browser restrictions; cookie expiry is separate from retention of data already collected.

Most of these technologies have a function, a purpose, and an expiration period.

  1. A function is a particular task a technology has. So a function can be to “store certain data.”
  2. Purpose is “the Why” behind the function. Maybe the data is stored because it is needed for statistics.
  3. The expiration period shows the length of the period the used technology can “store or read certain data.”

4. Browser- and device-based consent

Advertising choices are separate

The Preferences and Statistics controls below do not by themselves opt you out of advertising. Statistics controls website Analytics. Google manages advertising choices through regional privacy messages.

Where available, use Google’s “Privacy and cookie settings” or “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link on the website’s content pages. These policy pages do not load advertising tags. Return to the website to look for Google’s regional advertising controls. The options shown can depend on your location and Google’s service availability. You can also visit Google My Ad Center for Google advertising preferences. These options do not necessarily remove all ads or stop all measurement.

If an advertising control is unavailable, email hello@pawsunboxed.com for help. Sending an email or the request form does not itself change advertising choices stored in your browser.

When you visit our website for the first time, we will show you a pop-up with an explanation about cookies. You do have the right to opt-out and to object to the further use of non-functional cookies.

4.1 Manage your opt-out preferences

You have loaded the Cookie Policy without javascript support. On AMP, you can use the manage consent button on the bottom of the page.

5. Enabling/disabling and deleting cookies

You can use your internet browser to automatically or manually delete cookies. You can also specify that certain cookies may not be placed. Another option is to change the settings of your internet browser so that you receive a message each time a cookie is placed. For more information about these options, please refer to the instructions in the Help section of your browser.

Please note that our website may not work properly if all cookies are disabled. If you do delete the cookies in your browser, they will be placed again after your consent when you visit our website again.

6. Your rights with respect to personal data

You have the following rights with respect to your personal data:

  • you may submit a request for access to the data we process about you;
  • you may object to the processing;
  • you may request an overview, in a commonly used format, of the data we process about you;
  • you may request correction or deletion of the data if it is incorrect or not or no longer relevant, or to ask to restrict the processing of the data.

To exercise these rights, please contact us. Please refer to the contact details at the bottom of this Cookie Policy. If you have a complaint about how we handle your data, we would like to hear from you.

For more information about your rights with respect to personal data, please refer to our Privacy Statement

Other browser choices

You can delete or block cookies in your browser, manage Google personalized ads in My Ad Center, or use Google’s Analytics opt-out browser add-on in supported desktop browsers. Choices generally apply to the browser or device where you make them; clearing stored data may reset them.

Requests about your information

To request access, correction, deletion, or a copy of information we hold about you, email hello@pawsunboxed.com. Describe your request and the email address or interaction it concerns. No special form or account is required. Please do not send identity documents or sensitive information unless we specifically request what is necessary.

We may need proportionate information to verify a request about personal information where appropriate. This is separate from using the browser controls, which do not require your name or email. Rights and exceptions depend on applicable law. You may also contact us about an authorized-agent request or appeal. See our Privacy Policy for details.

If a control is unavailable

If the browser controls do not appear or do not work, check whether your browser is blocking scripts, or email hello@pawsunboxed.com for help. You can also manage cookies in your browser settings. Sending an email does not itself change the choices stored in your browser.
