These cookies are required for the basic operation and security of the website. Without them, certain website functions may not work correctly.
Examples may include cookies used for:
- Shopping cart functionality.
- Checkout and payment processes.
- Customer account sessions.
- Website security.

Because these cookies are necessary for requested website functions, they may not require consent in jurisdictions where an exemption for strictly necessary technologies applies.

Preference cookies allow the website to remember choices you make, such as language preferences or other website settings.
3.3 Analytics Cookies
Where enabled and permitted, analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use BB Cigars, including which pages are visited, how visitors navigate the website, and how website performance can be improved.
Analytics services may collect information such as browser type, device information, approximate location, pages viewed, referral information, and interaction data.
3.4 Marketing and Advertising Cookies
If BB Cigars uses advertising, remarketing, social media, or other marketing technologies, these technologies may use cookies or similar identifiers to measure campaigns, provide relevant advertising, or understand interactions with marketing content.
These technologies will be used in accordance with applicable privacy and cookie requirements and, where required, only after you provide the appropriate consent.
4. Age Verification Cookie
BB Cigars may use a cookie to remember that a visitor has completed the website’s age verification process.
For example, the website may use a cookie named bb_age_verified to remember that the visitor has confirmed that they meet the applicable legal age requirements.
This cookie is used to avoid repeatedly displaying the age verification notice during subsequent visits. The duration of this cookie may be limited and may be changed as our website functionality develops.
Deleting this cookie may cause the age verification notice to appear again.
5. WooCommerce Cookies
BB Cigars uses WooCommerce to provide online shopping functionality. WooCommerce may use cookies and related technologies to support functions such as shopping carts, checkout, customer sessions, and product interactions.
These technologies help ensure that products and customer actions remain associated with the appropriate shopping session.
6. Third-Party Services
Some functions of BB Cigars may be provided by third-party services. These providers may use cookies or similar technologies on our website.
Depending on the services enabled on the website, third parties may include payment providers, analytics providers, security services, embedded content providers, social media services, advertising platforms, or other technology providers.
The cookies and technologies used by these providers are subject to their own privacy policies and terms.
7. How Long Do Cookies Stay on Your Device?
Cookies may be either session cookies or persistent cookies.
Session cookies are generally removed when you close your browser.
Persistent cookies remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them manually. The expiration period varies depending on the purpose of the cookie.
8. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most modern browsers allow you to block cookies, delete existing cookies, or receive notifications before certain cookies are stored.
Where BB Cigars provides a cookie consent or preference management tool, you can use that tool to manage available non-essential cookie categories.
Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the website, including shopping cart, account, checkout, language, or other features.
9. Withdrawing Your Consent
Where your consent is required for non-essential cookies, you may withdraw or change your consent at any time using the cookie preference mechanism provided on the website.
You may also delete cookies through your browser settings.
Withdrawing consent does not necessarily delete cookies that have already been stored on your device. You may need to clear them through your browser or device settings.
