Cookie Preferences
This page explains how Doothemes, operated by EWS Networks, uses cookies and similar technologies, the categories of cookies we use, and how you can review and manage your cookie preferences at any time.
1. About This Page
This Cookie Preferences page describes how we use cookies and similar technologies across the Doothemes website at doothemes.com and our related services (the "Services"), and how you can control them. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains in more detail how we handle your personal information.
2. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, to make them work more efficiently, and to provide information to the site owners. Similar technologies, such as tags, scripts, and your browser's local storage, perform comparable functions, and in this page we refer to all of them as "cookies".
3. Why We Use Cookies
We use cookies to operate and secure the Services, to keep you signed in and remember your settings, to process orders and downloads, to credit affiliate referrals, to offer live chat, to understand how the Services are used, and to improve your overall experience. Some cookies are essential for the website to function, while others are optional.
4. Categories of Cookies We Use
- Strictly necessary — keep you signed in, protect forms against forgery, and remember your cookie choice. The Services cannot work properly without them.
- Functional — remember your preferences, such as your light or dark theme and the email address you last used to sign in.
- Analytics — help us measure traffic and improve the Services, through our own first-party analytics and through Google Analytics. We also use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which does not use cookies.
- Referral — when you arrive through an affiliate link, record which affiliate referred you so that the referral can be credited.
- Live chat — keep your conversation with our team across pages, through Tawk.to.
- Security — Cloudflare, which protects the Services, may set cookies to tell people apart from automated traffic.
We do not use advertising or retargeting cookies of our own. Some pages show ads served by Carbon Ads, which receives basic technical information, such as your IP address and browser, to deliver the ad.

9. Consequences of Disabling Cookies
