Cookie Policy

Last updated: July 2026

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, to remember your preferences, and to provide basic functionality and security.

Cookies do not contain any personally identifiable information on their own. They are stored locally on your device and sent back to our website each time you visit.

2. How We Use Cookies

Ross Family Cigars uses cookies to ensure our website functions correctly, to remember your preferences across sessions, and to provide a secure and consistent experience. We do not use cookies to track you across third-party websites or to serve you targeted advertising.

Specifically, we use cookies for the following purposes:

  • To remember your age verification status so you are not prompted repeatedly during the same visit;
  • To maintain the contents of your shopping cart across pages;
  • To store your shipping preferences during checkout;
  • To ensure our website displays correctly on your device;
  • To protect the security and integrity of our website.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

4. Strictly Necessary Cookies

Some cookies are essential for this website to function properly and cannot be disabled. These include cookies that enable age verification, maintain your shopping cart, and ensure basic security. Without these cookies, certain services on this website cannot be provided.

Because these cookies are strictly necessary, they do not require your consent under applicable law. However, you can delete them at any time through your browser settings.

5. Third-Party Cookies

Our website may load resources from third-party services which may set their own cookies on your device. These include:

  • Google Fonts — used to load our website typography. Google may set cookies when serving font files.
  • PayArc — our payment processor. When you proceed to checkout, you will be redirected to PayArc's secure payment page, which may set cookies to facilitate the transaction.
  • jQuery (Google APIs CDN) — used to load website scripts. This may involve a request to Google's servers.

Ross Family Cigars does not control these third-party cookies and is not responsible for them. We recommend reviewing the privacy and cookie policies of these third parties for further information.

6. Local Storage

In addition to cookies, our website uses browser local storage to save your shopping cart and shipping preferences. Local storage works similarly to cookies but stores data directly in your browser without expiration. You can clear local storage at any time through your browser's developer tools or settings.

7. Managing & Disabling Cookies

You have the right to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can modify your browser settings to decline cookies if you prefer. You can also delete cookies that have already been stored on your device.

Instructions for managing cookies in common browsers:

  • Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data
  • Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
  • Mozilla Firefox: Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
  • Microsoft Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions

Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies may affect the functionality of this website, including the shopping cart and checkout process. Age verification will also need to be completed on each page visit if the session cookie is disabled.

8. Do Not Track

Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want your online activity tracked. Ross Family Cigars does not use tracking or analytics cookies, and we do not engage in cross-site tracking. Our use of cookies is limited to the functional purposes described in this policy.

9. Children's Privacy

Our website is strictly intended for adults aged 21 and over. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from minors. If you are under the age of 21, you are not permitted to use this website. If you believe a minor has provided information to us, please contact us immediately at CONTACT@rossfamilycigars.com.

10. Changes to This Policy

Ross Family Cigars reserves the right to update this Cookie Policy at any time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies.
