Cookie Policy
Effective Date: October 20th 2020 Last Updated: April 20th 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Emergence Audio LLC (“Emergence Audio,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on emergenceaudio.com (the “Site”). It covers what these technologies are, why we use them, and the choices available to you. For information on how we handle personal data more broadly, please see our Privacy Policy.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to recognize your device and store information about your preferences or activity. We also use similar technologies such as pixels, web beacons, and local storage, all referred to collectively as “cookies” in this policy.
Cookies may be set directly by us (first-party cookies) or by third-party services we integrate with (third-party cookies). They may last only for your current browsing session (session cookies) or persist for a defined period (persistent cookies).
How We Use Cookies
We use cookies to:
- Keep the Site functioning correctly, including maintaining your cart, account session, and cookie preferences.
- Understand how visitors find and use the Site so we can improve performance and content.
- Measure the effectiveness of our marketing and attribute orders to their source.
- Deliver relevant advertising on third-party platforms.
Your Choices and Consent
When you first visit the Site, a cookie consent banner lets you accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or customize your preferences by category. You can change your choice at any time via the cookie preferences panel available from the consent banner.
Essential cookies cannot be disabled, as the Site cannot function correctly without them. All other categories (Statistics and Marketing) require your consent before any cookies in those categories are set.
You can also control cookies directly through your browser. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies, though doing so may affect the functionality of this Site and others:
