This Cookie Policy explains how Mint State Gold (“Mint State Gold,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on our website. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We also use web beacons, local storage, software development kits (“SDKs”), and similar technologies (collectively, “cookies”). Depending on the cookie category described below, these technologies may collect identifiers (such as cookie IDs and device identifiers), device and browser information, usage data (such as pages viewed, features used, and time spent), and, where applicable, information about how you interact with our recommendations or marketing messages.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
These cookies are essential for the operation of our website and Services and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set only in response to actions made by you, such as logging in, navigating the site, or filling in forms. Strictly necessary cookies may collect data such as session identifiers, authentication tokens, basic device and network information, and security‑related information needed to prevent fraud and maintain the integrity of your account. We use these cookies only to provide you with the services or features you request and to maintain the security of our Services. These cookies are not used to sell or share your personal information or to serve targeted advertising under the CCPA/CPRA or similar U.S. state privacy laws.
Functional cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalization, such as remembering your preferences (for example, display settings, language choices, or whether you are logged in) and helping us maintain your experience across sessions. These cookies may collect data such as user preferences, saved settings, and limited usage information about how you use specific features. We use this information to improve your experience and maintain your chosen settings. Functional cookies are not used to sell or share your personal information or to serve targeted advertising under the CCPA/CPRA or similar U.S. state privacy laws.
Analytics and performance cookies help us understand how our website and Services are used so that we can measure, improve, and optimize performance. These cookies may collect data such as page views, navigation paths, feature usage, time spent on pages, general location information (for example, city‑level data derived from IP address), and technical information about your browser and device. We use this information in aggregated or de‑identified form to analyze trends, maintain and improve our Services, and develop new features. Analytics and performance cookies are not used to sell or share your personal information or to serve targeted advertising under the CCPA/CPRA or similar U.S. state privacy laws.
These cookies help us understand the effectiveness of our communications and outreach (for example, whether a user visited our site after clicking on a link in an email or on another site) and to measure conversions related to our own marketing efforts. These cookies may collect data such as referral URLs, basic campaign information, browser and device information, and high‑level interaction data with our site or communications. We use this information to analyze and improve our marketing and to better understand how users learn about our Services. These cookies are not used to build profiles across unaffiliated sites, to serve targeted or cross‑context behavioral advertising, or to sell or share your personal information under the CCPA/CPRA or similar U.S. state privacy laws.
Recommendation cookies help us provide and refine on‑site product or content recommendations, such as suggested items or valuation displays that may be relevant to your interests based on your interactions with Mint State Gold. These cookies may collect data such as your on‑site activity (for example, items viewed, saved, or added to a portfolio), general engagement patterns, and related preference information. We use this information to offer more relevant on‑site recommendations and improve our recommendation tools. Recommendation cookies are limited to Mint State Gold’s own Services and are not used to sell or share your personal information or to serve targeted or cross‑context behavioral advertising under the CCPA/CPRA or similar U.S. state privacy laws.
3. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are placed by service providers (analytics, payment processors, pricing providers, and similar partners) that act on our behalf. These third‑party cookies may assist with functionality, analytics, security, or measurement as described in the categories above. We require these service providers to use the information collected through cookies only to provide services to Mint State Gold and not to sell or share your personal information or to use such information for their own targeted or cross‑context behavioral advertising.
4. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies for purposes including, but not limited to, the following (as described in Section 2 above):
- Site functionality (for example, enabling core site features, authentication, security, and remembering your basic settings);
- Session management (for example, maintaining your login session and ensuring that requests are associated with the correct account);
- Preference storage (for example, saving your display choices, language, and other settings so you do not have to reconfigure them each visit);
- Analytics (for example, understanding how users navigate the site and use features so that we can maintain, troubleshoot, and improve our Services, typically using aggregated or de‑identified data);
- Product recommendations (for example, using your on‑site interactions to suggest items, valuations, or other content that may be relevant to you within Mint State Gold).
5. How to Manage Cookies
You may disable cookies through your browser settings or, where available, through our cookie‑preferences tools. If you disable certain cookies (especially strictly necessary or functional cookies), some parts of the website or Services may not function properly. In addition to browser and on‑site controls, residents of certain U.S. states may have additional rights regarding cookies and similar technologies, including rights to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information (as those terms are defined under applicable law). For more information about these rights and how to exercise them, please refer to our Privacy Policy.
GLOBAL PRIVACY CONTROL (GPC)
Mint State Gold recognizes and honors the Global Privacy Control (“GPC”) signal. When a GPC signal is detected from your browser, we treat it as an opt‑out request regarding any “sale” or “sharing” of personal information or use of personal information for targeted or cross‑context behavioral advertising, to the extent required by the CCPA/CPRA and similar U.S. state privacy laws. Mint State Gold does not currently sell or share personal information or use cookies for targeted or cross‑context behavioral advertising, as those terms are defined under applicable U.S. state privacy laws. For more information about how we handle GPC and other opt‑out mechanisms under applicable law, please see our Privacy Policy.
