How do we use cookies and other tracking tools?

We, personally, do not use cookies or other tracking tools, However, it's important to note that third-party services, such as apps we have on our site through Wix App Market, may place cookies or utilize other tracking technologies through Wix´s services and may have their own policies regarding how they collect and store information. As these are external services, such practices are not covered by the Wix Privacy Policy. WE HAVE THEREFORE ADDED A COOKIE TRACKER THAT WARNS YOU IF ANY COOKIES ARE BEING USED. This warning provides a ‘LEARN MORE’ button, and so gives you the opportunity to go to a site which will help you to see what information the cookie is tracking and how to control it. We hope this puts your mind at rest.
