Cookies and browser storage
Cookie Policy
Last updated: 3 August 2026
Pending verification — not final copy
This document is complete in structure but the business's legal identity details have not yet been confirmed, so it is not indexed and must not be relied on as final. Outstanding details:
- Business structure (sole trader / partnership / limited company / other)
This page lists every cookie and browser storage item this site uses, who sets it, what it does and how long it lasts — including storage set by our payment and security providers.
1.What we use, in short
- Strictly necessary storage keeps you signed in, remembers your basket and lets you pay. It cannot be switched off without breaking the shop, so we do not ask for consent for it — we disclose it here instead.
- Security storage protects our forms from automated abuse. It is also treated as strictly necessary.
- Optional preference storage remembers conveniences like recently viewed products. It is off until you turn it on.
- We use no analytics cookies and no advertising or cross-site tracking technologies.
Where the law requires consent, we ask for it before the storage is created — not after. Continuing to browse is not treated as consent.
2.Your choices and how to change them
You can accept or reject optional storage at any time. Rejecting is exactly as easy as accepting, and the shop works fully either way — there is no reduced service and no cookie wall.
If you reject or withdraw preference storage, we remove the preference data already stored on your device. We re-ask for your choices at least every 12 months, and whenever this notice changes materially.
You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary storage will stop sign-in, the basket and checkout from working.
3.Strictly necessary (always on)
Required to operate the shop: keeping you signed in, remembering your basket, and completing payment. These cannot be switched off without breaking core functionality.
