1. WHAT ARE COOKIES?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

2. WHY DO WE USE COOKIES?

We use first-party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our website to function properly, and we refer to these as “essential” or “strictly necessary” cookies. For example, these cookies are necessary to support secure portal access and to allow you to register and save custom patterns to your computer using our interactive design tools. Other cookies help us track analytics and remember your browsing history, such as recently viewed stone collections.

Based on our current site architecture, we utilize the following types of cookies:
  • Essential / Strictly Necessary Cookies: These cookies are strictly necessary to provide you with services available through our website and to use some of its features. They are required for the website to function properly, such as verifying browser capabilities, managing user consent, maintaining language preferences, and allowing access to secure inventory areas.

This includes remembering which specific products or tiles you have recently viewed to make navigating back to them easier and remembering your preferences within our interactive design features.
  • Performance / Analytics Cookies: These cookies collect information that is used either in aggregate form to help us understand how our website is being used or how effective our marketing campaigns are. They track how visitors arrive at our site (such as direct traffic, search engines, or newsletter links) and gather internal usage metrics to help us optimize the digital experience.
  • Third-Party Cookies: In some special cases, we also use cookies provided by trusted third parties. For instance, integrated third-party media players used to host our company video presentations may deploy their own cookies to track your interaction with that specific multimedia content.
