1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored in your browser when you visit a website. We also use similar technologies such as localStorage to remember choices like your theme and cookie preference on your device. This policy explains which categories we use and how to control them.
2. Categories we use
Strictly necessary
These are required for the site to function securely and cannot be switched off through the preference banner:
- Session cookie — keeps you signed in and makes your cart and order flow work.
- CSRF protection token — protects forms and checkout against forged requests.
- Security and load-balancing records — help detect abuse and keep the service available.
- Consent record — remembers the cookie choice you made so we do not ask on every visit.
Optional analytics
With your consent, we may load privacy-conscious measurement tools that help us understand aggregate site usage — for example which pages are visited and where errors occur. These tools are only loaded after you choose to accept them. If you decline, or make no choice, they are not loaded.
Functional preferences
Choices such as light/dark theme and live-chat behaviour may be stored in your browser's local storage. These records stay on your device and can be removed through your browser settings at any time.
3. Third parties
Our hosting and security providers may process technical connection data (such as IP addresses) to deliver the site and mitigate attacks. If you accept optional analytics, technical requests are made to the configured analytics provider. We do not use cookies to sell personal data, and we do not load advertising trackers on this site. If we ever add a new optional category, we will update this policy and refresh the consent prompt.
4. How long cookies last
Session cookies expire when your session ends or after a short configured lifetime. The consent record and functional preferences persist until you change them or clear your browser data. Security logs held by our providers are retained for a limited period consistent with their security purpose and legal requirements.
5. Managing your preferences
You can accept or decline optional analytics through the cookie banner shown on your first visit, and change your mind at any time by clearing the stored consent in your browser and reloading the site. Declining optional cookies does not restrict your access to the site or your ability to place orders. You can also block or delete cookies entirely in your browser settings, but blocking strictly necessary cookies will break sign-in, the cart and secure form submission.
Most browsers let you manage cookies under their privacy or site-settings menus, including deleting existing cookies, blocking specific sites and browsing in private mode.
6. Changes and contact
If the technologies we use change, we will update this policy and its revision date. If you have questions about our use of cookies or about your privacy choices, contact us through the Contact page. For more on how we handle personal data generally, see our Privacy Policy.
