Cookies
Last updated November 2025
This cookie policy describes how Feminstry use “cookies” and other similar tracking tools, in connection with our Site and Services.
What is a Cookie?
Cookies (formally known as HTTP cookies) consists of small pieces of data information. When an individual visits a website, the website sends the cookie to your device, and then your device stores it in a file located in your web browser. The purpose of this is not only to track your visits and activity, but also for basic website functionality. The table below explains the cookies we use and why.
Types of Cookies That We Use:
Cookies provide different functions to websites. This is a list of the types of cookies we use.
Session Cookies: A session cookie for a website only exists whilst the user is reading or navigating the website. When the user closes their web browser these cookies are usually removed.
Persistent Cookies: A persistent cookie for a website exists on a user’s computer until a future date. For example, the cookie expiry date could be set as 1 year, and each time a website is accessed over this period the website could access the cookie.
HttpOnly Cookies: A HttpOnly cookie can only be used via HTTP or HTTPS, and therefore cannot be accessed by javascript. This reduces threat of session cookie theft via cross site scripting (XSS).
Secure Cookies: A secure cookie can only be used via HTTPS. This ensures the cookie data is encrypted, reducing the expose to cookie theft via eavesdropping.
Third-party Cookies: First-party cookies are cookies set with the same domain (or its subdomain) as your browser’s address bar. Third-party cookies are cookies set with domains different from the one shown on the address bar. The web pages on the first domain may feature content from a third-party domain, e.g. an advert run by www.advertexample.com. Privacy setting options in most modern browsers allow you to block third-party tracking cookies.
