Cookie Policy
1. Who we are
This Cookie Policy applies to aurawonders.com, operated by Marco Cremona, Via Croce Malloni 259/A, 84015 Nocera Superiore (SA), Italy, Fiscal Code CRMMRC84H25F912T, trading as Aura | Human Wonders.
Privacy contact: admin@aurawonders.com. More information is available in our Privacy Policy.
2. What cookies and similar technologies are
Cookies are small text files stored by a website or third party in a browser. Similar technologies include pixels, tags, local storage, software development kits and other identifiers that store or access information on a device or transmit interaction data.
Cookies may be:
- Session cookies, which expire when the browser session ends;
- Persistent cookies, which remain until their stated expiry or deletion;
- First-party cookies, set from the Aura domain;
- Third-party cookies or technologies, set or accessed by an external provider.
3. How consent works
Strictly necessary technologies are used because they are required to provide a service you request, such as keeping products in the cart, completing checkout, maintaining account security or storing your privacy choice.
Analytics and marketing technologies are not strictly necessary. They remain off until you make an affirmative choice where consent is required. The banner provides “Accept all”, “Reject all” and granular settings without pre-selected optional categories.
Your choice is stored for up to six months. You can change or withdraw it at any time by selecting Cookie Settings. Withdrawal does not affect processing that occurred lawfully before withdrawal.
If your browser sends a recognised Global Privacy Control signal, the site is designed to keep marketing and cross-context advertising technologies disabled.

5. Planned providers
The following providers may be introduced. Their use must match the live configuration of the website:
- Google Analytics and Google Ads: Google Privacy Policy and Google advertising-cookie information.
- Meta Pixel: Meta Privacy Policy and Meta Cookies Policy.
- Pinterest Tag: Pinterest Privacy Policy and Pinterest Cookies Policy.
Provider names, cookie names, domains, purposes and durations may change. Aura should review this table whenever a plugin, payment service, embedded media service, advertising platform or tag-manager configuration changes.
6. Embedded content and external links
Embedded videos, maps, social posts, review widgets, chat tools or other third-party content may place cookies or transmit information. Non-essential embeds should be blocked until the relevant consent is given. Ordinary links to an external website do not themselves authorise that website to place cookies before you visit it.
7. Managing cookies and withdrawing consent
You can:
- open Cookie Settings to accept, reject or change optional categories;
- delete or block cookies through your browser settings;
- use supported browser privacy controls, including Global Privacy Control;
- use provider-level advertising and privacy settings.
After consent is withdrawn, Aura stops loading the relevant tags on the next page load and attempts to remove known first-party analytics or marketing cookies. A website cannot directly delete all cookies created on third-party domains; those may need to be removed through browser or provider settings.
8. Updates and contact
We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in technologies, providers or law. The date at the top identifies the current version.
