COOKIE POLICY
Last Updated: July 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Golden House Publications ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website www.goldenhousepublications.com (the "Site"). This transparent disclosure is provided to our users in strict compliance with Article 122 of the Italian Personal Data Protection Code (Legislative Decree no. 196/2003), following the Simplified Procedures for Information and Acquisition of Consent for the Use of Cookies issued by the Italian Data Protection Authority on May 8, 2014, and the updated Cookie Guidelines of June 10, 2021.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files consisting of letters and numbers that are downloaded to a user's device (computer, smartphone, or tablet) when visiting a website. On subsequent visits, these files are sent back to the originating website to remember configurations, manage active sessions, or keep track of user movements within the pages.
2. Our Compliance Status: Strictly Essential Operations Only
This website operates under a highly privacy-centric structure. Our website does not use any marketing, profiling, or behavioral advertising cookies. We do not track your digital reading habits across the web, nor do we build advertising profiles to serve targeted promotions. We rely exclusively on the native technical infrastructure provided by Wix and Wix Payments. This means every cookie deployed on this Site falls into the category of Strictly Necessary (Technical) Cookies. Under current Italian and European Union data protection laws (GDPR), because these cookies are strictly essential to provide the e-commerce service you explicitly request (such as holding items in your cart and completing payments), your prior opt-in consent is not legally required to load them.
Notice on Our Cookie Banner: To ensure the highest level of transparency and platform compatibility, this website displays a native cookie interaction banner. Please be assured that because our store exclusively utilizes functional, technical cookies, any choice you make on our banner (or simply closing it) will safely default to loading only those core cookies strictly necessary to process your book selections and secure your payments

4. Browser-Level Cookie Management
While technical cookies are required for our bookstore to execute its primary business functions, you retain ultimate authority over your browser. You can block, disable, or clear these cookies at any time via your local web browser settings.

As a result, you will not be able to add books to your shopping cart, save items for later, or complete purchases via Wix Payments.
