1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies, such as localStorage, may also be used to remember your choices. Cookies help the site function, remember preferences, and understand how visitors interact with pages.
2. How We Use Cookies
Herbalbios uses cookies and similar technologies to ensure our website functions properly, remember your cookie consent choices, and — only with your consent — support analytics and advertising measurement. Our use of personal information collected through cookies is also described in our Privacy Policy, which is governed by the Privacy Act 2020 (New Zealand).
3. Cookie Categories
Strictly Necessary
These technologies are essential for the website to function. They include storage of your cookie consent choices in localStorage. They do not require consent because the site cannot operate correctly without them.
Analytics
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use our website, such as which pages are viewed and how users navigate between sections. These cookies are activated only after you provide consent through our cookie banner.
Marketing and Advertising
Marketing cookies may be used to measure the effectiveness of our outreach, including Google Ads campaigns, and to understand whether visitors arrived from an advertisement. These cookies may be set by third parties, including Google, and are activated only with your consent. Where Google advertising services are used, Google and its partners may use cookies to serve and measure ads in accordance with their own policies.
4. Specific Third-Party Services
Depending on your consent choices, we or our service providers may use technologies from:
- Google (analytics and advertising measurement)
- Content delivery networks that support website performance
Each third party processes information under its own privacy policy. For Google, see policies.google.com/privacy and policies.google.com/technologies/ads.
5. Managing Your Preferences
When you first visit our website, a cookie banner allows you to accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or customise your preferences by category. Strictly necessary technologies remain active at all times.
You can change your choices at any time by clearing your browser's localStorage for this site and revisiting the page so the banner appears again. You can also manage cookies through your browser settings and, where available, through industry opt-out tools provided by advertising platforms.
6. Consequences of Disabling Cookies
If you disable or reject non-essential cookies, the website will continue to function. However, we may be unable to remember your cookie preferences between sessions unless strictly necessary storage is permitted, and some measurement features will not operate.

You may request access to or correction of personal information we hold about you, and you may complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner if you are concerned about our handling of your information.
