🔍 What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or phone) when you visit a website.
They help websites function properly, remember your preferences, and improve your browsing experience.
Some cookies are essential for the site to work; others help us analyse how visitors use our site or personalise your experience.
🧩 Types of Cookies We Use
1. Essential Cookies (Strictly Necessary)
These cookies are required for our website to function properly — for example, remembering your basket contents, login status, or privacy settings.
You can’t turn these off, but they don’t collect any personal information.
Examples include:
- Keeping products in your cart during checkout
- Saving cookie consent preferences
- Managing secure areas of the website
2. Performance & Analytics Cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors use our site — which pages are most popular, how long users stay, and what we can improve.
All data is collected anonymously and used only for internal performance analysis.
We use:
- Google Analytics (anonymised IP tracking)
- Built-in WooCommerce statistics
These cookies help us make our site faster, easier to use, and more relevant to you.
3. Functionality Cookies
These cookies remember your preferences — such as language, region, or customisation options — to provide a smoother browsing experience.
They may also store your login details for quicker access next time.
4. Advertising & Marketing Cookies
We may use cookies to deliver relevant ads through Google Ads or Facebook (Meta) Pixel.
These cookies track interactions with our ads and help us measure campaign performance.
They do not give us access to your personal data — only anonymous behaviour patterns that help us improve targeting and relevance.
You can adjust or opt out of personalised advertising through your browser or social media settings at any time.
