COOKIE POLICY
This Cookie Policy explains how Template-Websites.com uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to ensure optimal 3D interactive performance, improve user experience, and analyze website traffic.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (smartphone, tablet, or computer) when you visit a website. They allow the platform to remember your preferences, optimize rendering speeds, and measure how visitors interact with our content.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
We categorize the cookies used on our platform into two distinct types:
A. Strictly Necessary & Functional Storage (Always Active)
Our own website does not set traditional first-party cookies. Instead, it saves two small technical values in your browser's local storage. They are required for basic functionality, contain no personal identifiable information, and are not used for tracking:
- Language Preferences: Remembers the website language (one of 4 available languages: English, Spanish, Catalan, and Danish), detected from your browser or chosen by you, across pages and repeat visits.
- Consent Management: Stores your cookie choice (accepted or declined) so you are not prompted repeatedly on every page load.
B. Analytics & Performance Cookies (Google Analytics)
With your consent only, we use Google Analytics 4 to gather anonymized statistical information about how visitors navigate and interact with Template-Websites.com. Google Analytics is not loaded at all unless you click "Accept" in the cookie banner, and it stays disabled if you decline:
- Traffic Insights: Measures visitor counts, session durations, traffic sources, and which sections of the page are viewed, plus a few events: language changes and contact-form submissions (only the selected package and language are sent, never your name, email, or message).
- IP Anonymization: Google Analytics 4 does not log or store visitor IP addresses, which helps keep your individual identity protected.
- Data Processing Standard: Google processes the data on our behalf. We use it only to understand and improve our website; we do not sell it or use it for advertising.

Google Analytics cookies (_ga, _ga_*) are only set after you accept.
4. How to Manage or Withdraw Your Consent
You have full control over cookie tracking on your device:
- Browser Settings: You can modify your browser settings to block, reject, or alert you when cookies are being sent. Note that blocking local storage may prevent your language and cookie choice from being saved.
- Clearing Cookie Data: You can withdraw your consent at any time by clearing your browser's cookies and local storage (site data) for Template-Websites.com. The cookie banner will then appear again, and Google Analytics will not load unless you accept again.
- Google Analytics Opt-Out: To block Google Analytics tracking across all websites, you can install the official Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
