What we store in your browser when you browse crystallume.world, why we store it, and how you remove it again.

How this page fits into your visit

This page describes how crystallume.world uses cookies and similar storage technologies, and how you can control them. It sits alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, and it applies to every page of the shop, from a model comparison to a product listing.

Reading this policy changes nothing about your order history, and it does not switch cookies on or off. It explains what is already there, what each category does, and where you find your own controls.

Seven answers, in order

Each heading below is a section of this cookie policy. Jump straight to the part you need, or read through once.

What cookies are

A cookie is a small text file that a website stores in your browser. It lets the site remember something between page loads, such as a preference or a session state. Cookies are not programs; they cannot run code on your device, and they cannot read other files on it.

Similar technologies do the same job with different storage. Some sites keep short-lived values in session storage so a form survives a page refresh, and some keep a setting in local storage so it lasts longer than a browser session. Where this policy says cookies, the same description covers those siblings.

Each cookie belongs to one site. The ones set by crystallume.world are sent back to us when you load another page here, and they are not readable by an unrelated site you open in another tab.

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies keep the site working: page routing, security checks, and remembering your cookie choice. They do not track you across other sites.

Because the site cannot function without them, they are set when you use it and are not subject to a consent switch. If you clear them mid-session you may need to make the same choice again, and a shopping or comparison flow may restart from the beginning.

Readouts on this page exist for the same reason the fins do: to keep a session moving without making it warmer than it needs to be. Nothing here profiles your build, and nothing follows you to another shop.

Analytics cookies

We use analytics cookies to understand which pages visitors read and where they leave. The data is aggregated and used to improve product information and page structure. These cookies are optional and are only set where your browser settings or your choice on the site allow it.

In practice this answers questions like: does a model comparison page keep people reading longer than a single product page, and does a reader who opens a cooler guide return to the shop after switching tabs. The answers tell us which sections deserve more detail and which should be merged.

What analytics does not give us: your name, your address, your payment details, or a list of the other sites you visited. It is about the shape of the traffic, not about you as a person.

Where analytics helps

Which comparisons get readHigh
Where readers stop scrollingMid-page
Which guides get revisitedOccasional

These are the shapes we look for, not your personal readings. No cookie on this site records which card you compared.

Only two things on this site are truly optional, and both are listed above.

Read the Privacy Policy

Preference cookies

If the site offers a language or display preference, a cookie may store that choice so you do not have to set it again on each visit. Clearing your browser storage removes it, and the next visit starts from the default.

The preference is a convenience, not a locked setting. You can change it at any time on the page where it appears, and the older value is overwritten rather than kept alongside the new one.

Third-party services

Some embedded services, such as a location map or a messaging widget, may set their own cookies under their own policies. We do not control those cookies, and they are not covered by this page.

The map embed belongs on the store's location page rather than here, so if you load it you know you are pulling in a service hosted by someone else. That service makes its own choice about storage, and you can block it in your browser without affecting the rest of the shop.

If you want the details, open the policy of the relevant third party and look for the storage section. Blocking third-party cookies entirely is usually the simplest way to keep those widgets out of your session without losing the site itself.

Managing cookies

You can accept, refuse, or delete cookies in your browser settings. Most browsers also offer a private or incognito mode that discards cookies when you close the window. If you block necessary cookies, parts of the site may not work as intended.

Accept or refuse the optional categories

Consent bar

The consent control that appears on your first visit to crystallume.world is where the optional categories are switched on or off. Necessary cookies stay on regardless, and analytics stays off until it is allowed.

Delete stored cookies from your browser

Browser settings

Every major browser has a storage section under its privacy or site-data settings. Clearing all cookies signs you out of most sites you use; clearing only crystallume.world keeps your other sessions intact.

Browse in a private window

Session only

Private or incognito mode discards cookies when you close the window. It is a clean way to look at a page once without leaving a stored choice behind; the trade-off is that nothing you set during that visit carries over.

Block everything and rebuild if needed

Highest effort

Blocking every cookie is allowed, but a comparison flow that depends on remembering your filters may reset on every page. If that happens, switch necessary cookies back on and the shop will rebuild the session from scratch.

Keeping the policy current

Changes and contact

We may update this policy when our use of cookies changes. If a new category of storage is introduced, it lands here before it goes live. The current version always applies to the live site, and there is no separate archive of older versions to reconcile against.

Questions about cookies can be sent to +82-2-701-4492 or to our Yongsan-gu address. If you are asking about a specific order, mention the order reference from your confirmation message and the request reaches the right person on the first pass.

If your question is about how we handle personal data more broadly than cookies, the Privacy Policy covers that ground. If it is about an order or a return, the Terms of Service is the right starting point.

Cookie questions we get often

Short answers, no routing. If yours is not here, the phone number above is the fastest route.

Do cookies slow the site down?

No more than they help it. A cookie is a few bytes of text, and reading it is cheaper than reloading a preference or a filter from scratch. The files that slow a page down are normally scripts, not cookies.

Can I shop here with cookies off?

You can browse the shop, read model comparisons, and open every guide with cookies switched off. If you block strictly necessary cookies, the parts that depend on remembering a state may reset on each page, so a filter you set once may need setting again.

Does refusing analytics change what I see?

No. Product pages, comparison rows, and pricing context are unchanged whether analytics is on or off. Analytics only decides which pages we learn from when deciding what to explain in more depth next.

Why does a widget bring its own cookie?

When we embed a service hosted by another company, that company controls the storage it sets. We can tell you that the widget exists and where it usually sits, but we cannot read or delete what the other service stores. Its own policy is the source for that detail.

Where is my cookie choice stored?

In your browser, on your device. The choice is a necessary cookie: if you clear it, the site will ask again next visit because it no longer knows what you decided last time.

Will this policy change often?

Only when the way we use storage actually changes. Adding a new category, retiring a cookie, or switching a service counts; fixing a sentence that reads poorly does not trigger a rewrite. The current version on this page is always the one in force.

Who do I contact with a cookie question?

Call +82-2-701-4492 during office hours (Monday to Friday, 09:00 to 18:00) or send a message to [email protected]. Mentioning the page you were on when the question came up helps the reply match your situation the first time.

Before you continue

That is the whole cookie story — short enough to keep, plain enough to check.

Nothing on this page unlocks or disables anything. It records what the shop already does with browser storage and points you at the controls you already own.
