Cookie Policy

1. What Cookies Are

Cookies are small files stored by your browser. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, pixels, tags, scripts, server logs, device identifiers, and other tools that store or access information on your device or record technical information about your visit.

Some cookies are necessary for a website or service to work. Others may support analytics, performance, embedded content, personalization, marketing, security, or vendor checkout services.

2. How This Site Uses Cookies

Jason Reynolds Art uses cookies and similar technologies only as reasonably needed to operate the website, protect it, support WordPress functionality, remember your cookie preference, measure site usage with Google Analytics when you consent, display media, load design assets, and connect you to third-party services such as SmugMug checkout.

This site uses Google Analytics 4 only after you choose Accept All. If you reject non-essential cookies, the Google Analytics tag is not loaded. The site does not currently use advertising or marketing pixels.

3. Strictly Necessary Cookies and Storage

Strictly necessary cookies and storage are used for core functionality, security, site administration, logged-in WordPress sessions, form operation, spam prevention, and remembering your cookie preference. These technologies are required for the site or requested features to work and cannot be fully disabled through this site’s preference controls.

You can block necessary cookies in your browser, but doing so may break parts of the site, prevent saved preferences, disrupt forms, prevent logged-in WordPress features, or make checkout/vendor links unreliable.

4. Preference Storage

When you accept or reject non-essential cookies on this site, your choice is saved in your browser’s local storage under a Jason Reynolds Art preference key. This lets the site remember your choice without repeatedly showing the cookie banner.

If you clear browser storage, use a different browser, use a different device, or browse in private mode, you may need to set the preference again.

5. Google Analytics and Non-Essential Cookies

With your consent, this site uses Google Analytics 4 to understand general traffic and how visitors use the site. Google Analytics may collect or generate information such as pages viewed, approximate location derived from IP address, browser and device details, referring pages, visit timing, scrolling, outbound link clicks, site-search activity, video interactions, file downloads, and similar usage events.

Google Analytics may set first-party cookies such as _ga and related identifiers. These cookies and the Analytics tag are optional on this site. You may allow or reject them using the controls on this page or the cookie banner. Rejecting them does not prevent you from browsing the main informational pages.

6. SmugMug, Checkout, and Purchases

Purchases of prints, products, and certain downloads may be handled through SmugMug and/or other third-party vendors. Those vendor checkout pages may use their own cookies and similar technologies for shopping carts, payment processing, fraud prevention, taxes, shipping, order status, customer support, account functions, and security.

You can reject non-essential cookies on this Jason Reynolds Art website, but Jason Reynolds Art cannot control all cookies used by SmugMug or other vendor checkout pages. If you block or reject required vendor cookies, you may not be able to complete purchases, maintain a cart, process payment, receive accurate shipping/tax calculations, or access order support features.

For details about SmugMug’s use of information, cookies, and related technologies, please review SmugMug’s Privacy Policy, Terms, and support documentation.

7. WordPress Cookies

WordPress may use cookies for logged-in users, administrators, comment forms, security, preferences, and session management. For visitors who are not logged in and do not submit comments or forms, WordPress cookie use may be limited, but it can vary based on enabled features and future site settings.

If comments, forms, memberships, password-protected pages, or other interactive WordPress features are enabled, additional cookies or similar storage may be used to support those features.

8. Embedded Content and Third-Party Services

Pages on this site may include embedded or linked content from third parties, such as SmugMug, social platforms, video hosts, maps, fonts, scripts, content delivery networks, lightbox tools, payment processors, or other services. Third-party content can behave as though you visited the third-party website directly.

Those third parties may set cookies, use local storage, collect technical information, log your IP address, monitor interaction with embedded content, or combine your visit with information from your account with that third party. Jason Reynolds Art does not control third-party cookie practices.

9. Fonts, Scripts, and CDN Requests

This site may load fonts, scripts, stylesheets, or other assets from providers such as Google Fonts, jsDelivr, or similar content delivery networks. These requests may send normal technical information, including IP address, requested file, browser information, referring page, and related HTTP headers.

Google states that the Google Fonts Web API is unauthenticated and does not set or log cookies, but your browser still sends normal request information needed to serve font files.

10. How to Change or Withdraw Your Choice

You can change your Jason Reynolds Art cookie choice at any time using the controls near the top of this page. You can also clear cookies, local storage, and browsing data in your browser settings.

Browser controls vary, but most browsers allow you to block cookies, delete cookies, block third-party cookies, clear local storage, or browse in private/incognito mode. Blocking cookies at the browser level may override this site’s settings and may cause features to stop working.

11. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Signals

Some browsers offer “Do Not Track” or global privacy signals. Because there is not one consistent technical standard that all websites and vendors follow, this site may not respond to every browser signal automatically. Where legally required and technically feasible, Jason Reynolds Art will honor applicable privacy choices and requests.

12. Changes to This Cookie Policy

Jason Reynolds Art may update this Cookie Policy as the website, tools, vendors, laws, or cookie practices change. The effective date above identifies the current version.

13. Contact

Questions about this Cookie Policy may be sent through the contact methods provided on this website. For cookies used by SmugMug, payment processors, shipping providers, social platforms, or other third-party services, please review and contact those providers directly.
