COOKIE POLICY
Last Updated: February 13, 2026
At Gentleman Korea, we use cookies to improve your shopping experience, remember your grooming preferences, and ensure our store runs smoothly. This policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and how you can manage them.
1. WHAT ARE COOKIES?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognize your device and store certain information about your preferences or past actions.
2. WHY DOES GENTLEMAN KOREA USE COOKIES?
We use cookies for several essential and performance-related reasons:
Essential/Functional Cookies: These are necessary for the website to function. They allow you to add items to your cart, remain logged into your account, and navigate our K-Beauty collections securely.
Preference Cookies: These remember choices you’ve made, such as your preferred language or your local currency (USD, KRW, EUR, etc.).
Analytics & Performance Cookies: We use tools like Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our site. This helps us see which grooming products are trending and which pages need improvement.
Marketing & Targeting Cookies: These are used to deliver relevant advertisements to you based on your interests. For example, if you’ve been looking at "Korean Sunscreens," these cookies help us show you related products later.
Understood. As your Marketing Manager, I agree—sometimes a clean text layout is better for mobile readability and transparency. Let’s rewrite Section 3: The Cookies We Use to be more descriptive while maintaining that professional "Gentleman Korea" tone.
3. THE COOKIES WE USE
To provide you with a seamless and premium shopping experience from Seoul to your doorstep, we utilize the following categories of cookies:
Essential Session Cookies
These are the "workhorse" cookies of our store. They are strictly necessary for the website to function. They allow you to maintain your login session as you move from our "Cleanser" collection to our "Moisturizers," ensuring your security and identity are protected while you shop. These are typically deleted as soon as you close your web browser.
Persistent Cart Cookies
We know a gentleman likes to take his time choosing the right routine. These cookies remember the items you have added to your shopping bag even if you leave our site and return later. This ensures you don't have to start your curation from scratch. These usually remain on your device for 14 to 30 days.
Analytics & Performance Cookies
These cookies help us understand how our global community uses the site. We track which K-Beauty trends are most popular in specific regions and identify if any pages are loading slowly. All data collected here is aggregated and anonymous; we use it strictly to improve the speed and design of Gentleman Korea. These can remain on your device for up to 2 years.
Marketing & Behavioral Cookies
To ensure we only show you relevant grooming tips and products, we use these cookies to tailor our advertising. For example, if you have spent time looking at anti-aging serums, these cookies allow us to show you related offers on social media or search engines, rather than showing you products that aren't relevant to your needs.
4. THIRD-PARTY COOKIES
In some cases, we use cookies provided by trusted third parties.
Shopify/Platform: To manage the e-commerce engine.
Payment Processors: To ensure secure transactions.
Social Media: To allow you to "Like" or share our products on platforms like Instagram or X.
5. HOW TO MANAGE COOKIES
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies.
Cookie Banner: When you first visit Gentleman Korea, a banner will appear allowing you to "Accept All" or "Manage Settings."
Browser Settings: You can set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our website, though some functionality (like the shopping cart) may be limited.
6. UPDATES TO THIS POLICY
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the technologies we use. We encourage you to check this page periodically for updates.
