How we use cookies.

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your preferences, keep you signed in, and understand how you use the site so we can improve your experience.

Cookies do not contain personal information like your name or payment details. They simply store a small identifier that helps our website recognise your device on return visits.

Essential cookies: These are required for our website to function. They enable core features like page navigation, secure checkout, and keeping items in your shopping bag. You cannot disable these cookies.

Analytics cookies: We use these to understand how visitors interact with our website — which pages are visited most, how long users stay, and where they come from. This data is anonymised and helps us improve the site. We use Google Analytics (_ga, _gid — up to 2 years) for this purpose.

Authentication cookies: Supabase sets session cookies (sb-access-token, sb-refresh-token) to keep you signed in to your account. These are essential cookies and are cleared when you sign out.

Payment cookies: Stripe sets cookies (__stripe_mid, __stripe_sid) during checkout to process payments securely and prevent fraud. These are essential cookies active only during your session.

Functional cookies: These remember your preferences such as language, region, or display settings so you don't have to re-enter them each time you visit.

Hosting cookies: Vercel, our hosting provider, may set performance cookies to optimise page loading and monitor site availability.

Marketing cookies: These track your browsing activity across websites to deliver relevant advertisements. They are only set with your explicit consent and are used by third-party advertising partners.

When you first visit our website, a cookie consent banner allows you to accept or decline non-essential cookies. You can change your preferences at any time by clearing your browser cookies and revisiting the site.

You can also manage cookies directly through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies, though this may affect your experience on our website — for example, items may not stay in your shopping bag.

Some cookies on our site are set by third-party services. Below is a summary of each provider, the cookies they set, and their purpose:

Google Analytics (_ga, _gid): Anonymised website traffic analysis — pages visited, session duration, and referral source. Retained for up to 2 years.

Stripe (__stripe_mid, __stripe_sid): Secure payment processing and fraud prevention during checkout. Session-based.

Supabase (sb-access-token, sb-refresh-token): User authentication and session management. Cleared on sign out.

Vercel: Performance monitoring and page load optimisation. Session-based.

Each third-party service has its own cookie and privacy policy. We recommend reviewing their policies if you would like to understand how they use your data.

By continuing to use our website with non-essential cookies enabled, you consent to our use of those cookies as described in this policy. Essential cookies do not require consent as they are necessary for the website to function.

You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time by adjusting your browser settings or clearing your cookies.

We may update this cookie policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legislation, or our business practices. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date.

If you have any questions about how we use cookies or this policy, we’re here to help.
