Spirit uses a minimal-cookie approach and avoids advertising or third-party behavioural tracking technologies.
1. About cookies
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used to make websites work, run more efficiently, and provide information to the website owner. Some technologies that work like cookies (for example, local storage, tracking pixels, and SDKs) are also covered by this policy.
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies we use on [https://www.spiritaeg.com/] ("the Website"), why we use them, and how you can manage your preferences.
This Cookie Policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle the personal data collected through cookies.
2. How we use cookies
We use cookies for two main purposes:
To make the Website work. Some cookies are essential — for example, to remember your cookie preferences or to keep the Website secure. These are set automatically and cannot be turned off.
To understand how the Website is used. Optional cookies help us see, in aggregate, which pages are popular and how visitors arrive at the site. We only set these cookies if you give us your consent.
Spirit does not intentionally use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.
