Cookie Policy

Last updated: August 22, 2025

Priority Aminos LLC (“Priority Aminos”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on www.priorityaminos.com (the “Site”). This Cookie Policy explains what these technologies are, why we use them, and your choices for controlling them. For more information about how we process personal information, please see our Privacy Policy.

1) What are cookies and similar technologies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work or work more efficiently, and to provide reporting information. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels, web beacons, and SDKs. In this policy we refer to all of these as “cookies.”

2) Who sets cookies?

  • First-party cookies: set by Priority Aminos (the Site you’re visiting).
  • Third-party cookies: set by other companies (e.g., analytics, advertising, social media, payment/hosting providers).

3) Why we use cookies

We use cookies for the following purposes:

  • Strictly Necessary – required to operate the Site (e.g., cart, checkout, security, load balancing). These cannot be switched off because the Site will not function properly without them.
  • Performance/Analytics – help us understand Site usage so we can improve performance and user experience.
  • Functional – remember choices you make (e.g., language, dismissing notices, recently viewed items).
  • Advertising/Targeting – measure campaign performance and show relevant ads. These are used only where applicable consent/opt-out choices permit.

Cookie Settings — Use this link to review or change your cookie preferences (if your browser blocks pop-ups, this may open in a new window). You can revisit your choices at any time.

Browser controls: You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Doing so may impact Site functionality (e.g., your cart and login may not work). See your browser’s Help pages for instructions.

Global Privacy Control (GPC): Where required by law, we treat a valid GPC signal as a request to opt out of sale/sharing for cross-context behavioral advertising. You can learn more about your rights on our Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information page.

5) Legal basis & regional notes

  • EEA/UK/Switzerland: We seek your consent for non-essential cookies under the ePrivacy Directive/PECR and GDPR. Essential cookies rely on our legitimate interests to provide the Site’s core functions.
  • United States (including CA/CO/CT/UT/VA): Certain analytics/advertising cookies may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” of personal information or targeted advertising. Residents can opt out via Do Not Sell/Share and (where supported) through GPC.

6) How long do cookies last?

Cookies are either session cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or persistent cookies (remain until they expire or you delete them). We keep persistent cookies no longer than necessary for their purpose and in line with our Privacy Policy.

7) Cookies we commonly use
