Cookie Policy
1. Introduction
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how and why we use them on our website, and what choices you have in controlling them. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains in more detail how we handle personal information collected through cookies and similar technologies.
By continuing to use our website after being presented with our cookie banner, or by adjusting your preferences through our cookie settings tool, you determine which categories of cookies are placed on your device.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your computer, smartphone, or other device when you visit it. They allow the website to recognize your device on return visits, remember your actions and preferences over time, and support certain features of the store, such as keeping items in your cart or keeping you signed in.
In addition to cookies, we may use similar technologies, such as pixels, tags, and local storage, that serve comparable purposes. For simplicity, this policy refers to all of these technologies collectively as "cookies."
3. Categories of Cookies We Use
We use different categories of cookies depending on their purpose. Some are essential for the store to function, while others are only placed with your consent.
3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for our website to operate correctly. They enable core functions such as maintaining your shopping cart, processing your orders, keeping you securely logged in to your account, and protecting the site against fraud and abuse. Because these cookies are essential to providing the service you request, they do not require your consent and cannot be switched off through our cookie settings.
3.2 Functional Cookies
Functional cookies allow our website to remember choices you make, such as your preferred language or region, so that we can provide a more personalized and convenient shopping experience on future visits.
3.3 Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website, for example which pages are viewed most often and how visitors navigate through the store. This information helps us improve the performance, usability, and content of our site. Analytics cookies are only set with your prior consent.
3.4 Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies are used to deliver advertising that is more relevant to you and your interests, and to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. Like analytics cookies, marketing cookies are only set with your prior consent.
4. Your Consent Choices
When you first visit our website, we present a cookie banner asking for your consent to the use of non-essential cookies, namely functional, analytics, and marketing cookies. Strictly necessary cookies are not covered by this consent request, as they are required for the website to function.
You are free to accept or decline non-essential cookies, and you may change or withdraw your consent at any time by returning to our cookie settings. In addition to managing your preferences through our cookie settings tool, you can control or delete cookies through your browser settings, as described in Section 6 below.
5. How Long Do Cookies Last?
Cookies fall into two categories depending on how long they remain on your device:
- Session cookies are temporary and are automatically deleted once you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies remain on your device after you close your browser, until they either expire or you delete them manually.
6. Managing Cookies in Your Browser
In addition to the choices offered through our cookie settings, most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their own settings. You can typically choose to block all cookies, block specific types of cookies, or delete cookies that have already been placed on your device. Please note that blocking or deleting certain cookies, including strictly necessary cookies, may affect the availability or functionality of parts of our website, such as your ability to add items to your cart or complete a purchase.
Because browser settings vary, please refer to your browser's help documentation for instructions on how to manage cookie preferences.
7. Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. We encourage you to review this page periodically to stay informed about our use of cookies.
