2. Types of Cookies We Use
We use the following categories of cookies on our Site:
2.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the operation of our Site and for enabling you to move around and use its features. Without these cookies, services you have asked for (such as placing items in your cart or logging into your account) cannot be provided.
Examples include:
- Cookies that remember your cart contents
- Cookies that allow you to log in and stay logged in
- Security cookies used to authenticate users and prevent fraud
You cannot disable strictly necessary cookies through our Site, but you may be able to disable them in your browser. If you do so, parts of the Site may not function properly.
2.2 Performance and Analytics Cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors use our Site so we can improve its performance, content, and user experience. They collect information such as:
- Pages visited and time spent on each page
- Links clicked and navigation paths
- General information about the device and browser you use
We may use third‑party analytics services, such as Google Analytics or similar tools, which use their own cookies. The information collected is aggregated and does not directly identify you.
Where required by law, we will only place these cookies with your consent.
2.3 Functionality Cookies
These cookies allow the Site to remember the choices you make (such as your language preference, region, currency, or login details) and provide enhanced, more personalized features.
They may also be used to provide services you have requested, such as saving your preferences or remembering that you have already seen or dismissed a notification or popup.
If you disable these cookies, some personalization or convenience features may not be available.
2.4 Advertising and Targeting Cookies
We may use cookies and similar technologies to deliver relevant advertising and to measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns. These cookies may be set by us or by third‑party partners (such as advertising networks, social media platforms, or remarketing providers) and may be used to:
- Show you ads that are more likely to be of interest to you
- Limit the number of times you see a particular advertisement
- Help measure the effectiveness of our adverts and marketing communications
- Enable social media features (such as “like” or “share” buttons) and track engagement
These cookies may track your browsing activity across different websites and build a profile of your interests. This information may be shared with third parties for advertising purposes.
Where required by law, we will only use advertising and targeting cookies with your consent.
3. Other Tracking Technologies
In addition to cookies, we may use similar technologies, such as:
- Web beacons / pixels: Small graphic images embedded in webpages or emails, used to understand browsing behavior or whether an email has been opened or acted upon.
- Local storage: Browser‑based storage that can hold data (similar to cookies) for certain functions.
These technologies are often used together with cookies to help us better understand user activity and measure campaign performance.
4. Cookies We May Use
The specific cookies used on the Site may change from time to time, but they generally fall into the categories described above. Examples (non‑exhaustive) may include:
- Platform / ecommerce cookies (e.g., cart, checkout, session, CSRF/security)
- Analytics cookies (e.g., cookies used by Google Analytics or similar services)
- Advertising / social media cookies placed by services such as Google Ads, Meta (Facebook/Instagram), or similar platforms (if used)
