What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, provide information to site owners, and improve the user experience.

Cookies we use

Essential cookies

These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off. They are set by our hosting platform (Shopify) and include session cookies for site functionality, security cookies to prevent cross-site request forgery, and cookies that remember your cookie consent preferences. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information.

Analytics cookies

We use analytics cookies to understand how visitors interact with our website. This helps us improve our site and the experience we provide. Analytics data is collected in aggregate form and does not personally identify you. We may use Google Analytics or similar tools which set cookies including _ga, _gid, and _gat to distinguish users and throttle request rates.

Shopify cookies

Our website is hosted on Shopify, which sets cookies for site functionality including _shopify_s (session cookie), _shopify_y (persistent cookie for analytics), cart (stores cart information), and secure_customer_sig (for customer authentication). Full details of Shopify's cookie usage can be found in Shopify's privacy policy.

Third-party cookies

We do not use advertising or retargeting cookies. We do not serve third-party ads on our website. If we embed any third-party content (such as video) in future, those services may set their own cookies. We will update this policy accordingly.

Managing cookies

Most web browsers allow you to manage cookies through their settings. You can typically set your browser to refuse cookies, delete existing cookies, or alert you when a cookie is being set.

Please note that blocking essential cookies may prevent parts of the website from functioning correctly.
