As with most modern websites, for ShastaScenes.com to function, we must place small snippets of data called “cookies” on your device.
Some jurisdictions require websites to notify users if they use cookies and to obtain your consent to do so. While attempting to fully comply with these regulations and to provide the most comprehensive cookie consent policy possible, Shasta Scenes has relied upon the guidance and resources from the European Commission — a globally recognized authority on website cookie uses and privacy policy disclosures.
What Are Cookies?
A cookie is a small text file that a website saves on your computer or mobile device when you visit that website, enabling the website to remember your actions and preferences (such as access authorization or content viewing preferences) so that you don’t have to keep re-entering passwords, preferences or other information whenever you browse from one page to another.
How Do We Use Cookies?
At Shasta Scenes, our pages may use first-party, session-based cookies. This means that this information is only stored for the duration of your visit to our site.
For example, we may use a cookie confirming authorization to access our services by signifying your acceptance of our privacy policy and terms of service, and indeed, whether you have agreed (or not) to our use of cookies on this site.
Shasta Scenes also offers a dynamic user interface, where different content types and environments may be presented depending on the site user’s access device, providing a truly unique browsing experience. One component of this process may use cookies to provide iPhone users with a tailored web-app of our site, for example.
There is no personally identifiable user information stored in these cookies and all of the data is fully under our control. These cookies are not used for any purpose other than those described here and are not shared with other parties, or retained after your browsing session.
Cookies From Contact Forms & Logins
If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article and expires after one day.
Do We Use Other Cookies?
To maximize the effectiveness and efficiency of this website, we may also rely on third-party statistics services such as Google Analytics, which may use cookies and will have its unique cookie policy.
How to Control Cookies
