At BunkBeds-HQ, accessible at https://www.bunkbeds-hq.com, one of our main priorities is the privacy of our visitors. This Privacy Policy describes the procedures and policies concerning the collection, use, and disclosure of your information when you use this website. We are committed to safeguarding your privacy rights and ensuring compliance with applicable laws.

What data we collect
BunkBeds-HQ.com automatically collects certain information from your device or web browser when you interact with this website. The collected information includes your IP address, approximate location (the city you are accessing the website from), mobile device identifier or other unique identifier, browser type, computer type, the web page you came from, the URL you go to next, the web page(s) that you access during your visit and your interaction with content on BunkBeds-HQ.com.
To collect this information we use Independent Analytics, a software solution for analyzing web traffic. Independent Analytics outputs a small tracking script on each page of our website. When a visitor arrives on BunkBeds-HQ.com, the tracking script runs, collecting data about the visitor and the page they’re viewing. Once the page is finished loading, the data is saved in our database and does not leave this website. No cookies are used in the process.
In order to recognize repeat visitors without the use of cookies, Independent Analytics needs to remember the IP address of each visitor. However, since IP addresses are considered “Personally Identifiable Information” under the GDPR and other privacy laws, they cannot be stored in plain text. Therefore, before being saved in the database, they are obfuscated into an unrecognizable state that is sufficiently challenging to crack.
Why we collect this data
BunkBeds-HQ.com collects this data for a variety of purposes but foremost to improve the design and functionality of this website and to diagnose problems with our servers and software.
Cookies
A cookie is a small data file that is stored on your computer or mobile device when you visit our website. We use cookies to improve our website’s functionality: to store information about visitors’ preferences and to personalize or customize our web page content based upon the device the visitor is using, their browser type or other information that the visitor sends via their browser.
Cookies are widely used and most web browsers are configured initially to accept cookies automatically. You can change your web browser settings to prevent your computer or mobile device from accepting cookies or to notify you when you receive a cookie so that you may decline its acceptance. Please note, however, if you disable cookies, you may not experience optimal performance on this and other websites.
In general, there are three different ways to classify cookies: what purpose they serve, how long they endure, and their place of origin.
Duration
- Session cookies — These cookies are temporary and expire once you close your browser (or once your session ends).
- Persistent cookies — This category encompasses all cookies that remain on your hard drive until you erase them or your browser does, depending on the cookie’s expiration date. All persistent cookies have an expiration date written into their code, but their duration can vary.
BunkBeds-HQ.com uses both session and persistent cookies.
Place Of Origin
- First-party cookies — As the name implies, first-party cookies are put on your device directly by the website you are visiting.
- Third-party cookies — These are the cookies that are placed on your device not by the website you are visiting, but by a third party like an advertiser or an analytic system.
BunkBeds-HQ.com only uses first-party cookies.
Purpose
- Strictly necessary cookies — These cookies are essential for you to browse the website and use its features, such as accessing secure areas of the site. Cookies that allow web shops to hold your items in your cart while you are shopping online are an example of strictly necessary cookies. These cookies will generally be first-party session cookies.
- Preferences cookies — Also known as “functionality cookies,” these cookies allow a website to remember choices you have made in the past, like what language you prefer, what region you would like weather reports for, or what your user name and password are so you can automatically log in.
- Statistics cookies — Also known as “performance cookies,” these cookies collect information about how you use a website, like which pages you visited and which links you clicked on. This includes cookies from third-party analytics services.
- Marketing cookies — These cookies track your online activity to help advertisers deliver more relevant advertising or to limit how many times you see an ad. These cookies can share that information with other organizations or advertisers. These are persistent cookies and almost always of third-party provenance.
BunkBeds-HQ.com only uses strictly necessary and preference cookies.
