Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which types of cookies our store uses, and how you can manage or withdraw your preferences at any time. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains more broadly how we collect, use, and protect your personal information.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your computer, phone, or other device when you visit it. They allow the website to recognise your device on future visits, remember information about your visit, and support features such as keeping items in your shopping cart or keeping you signed in. Cookies do not typically contain information that directly identifies you by name, but they can be linked to your browser or device.
2. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies for several different purposes, ranging from making sure the store functions correctly to helping us understand how visitors use our website. The cookies we use fall into the following categories:
- Strictly necessary cookies: these are essential for our store to operate properly. They enable core functionality such as adding products to your cart, completing checkout, keeping you logged into your account, and maintaining the security of the site. Because these cookies are required for the website to work, they are set automatically and do not require your consent.
- Functional cookies: these cookies remember choices you make while browsing, such as your preferred language or region, so that we can provide a more personalised experience on future visits.
- Analytics cookies: these cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website, for example which pages are viewed most often, so that we can improve the site's performance and usability. Analytics cookies are only set with your consent.
- Marketing cookies: these cookies are used to show you advertising that is more relevant to your interests, both on our website and elsewhere. Marketing cookies are only set with your consent.
3. Consent and Withdrawal
The first time you visit our website, we ask for your consent to the use of non-essential cookies (functional, analytics, and marketing cookies) through a cookie banner. Strictly necessary cookies are excluded from this consent request because they are required for the website to function.
You are free to change or withdraw your consent at any time. You can do this through the cookie settings available on our website, or by adjusting the cookie controls in your web browser as described below. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdrew it.
4. Managing Cookies in Your Browser
In addition to the cookie settings we provide, most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their own settings. You can typically choose to block all cookies, block cookies from specific websites, or be notified whenever a cookie is set. You can also delete cookies that have already been stored on your device. Please note that if you block or delete strictly necessary cookies, some parts of our store, such as the shopping cart or checkout, may not work correctly.
Because browser settings vary, please refer to the help section of your specific browser for instructions on how to manage cookies.
5. How Long Cookies Stay on Your Device
Cookies remain on your device for different lengths of time depending on their type:
- Session cookies are temporary and are automatically deleted once you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies remain on your device after you close your browser, either until they expire or until you delete them manually.
6. Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time, for example to reflect changes in the cookies we use or for legal or regulatory reasons. Any changes will be posted on this page, and we encourage you to review it periodically.
