What they are
Cookies are small text files that a website saves on your device in order to work, to remember your choices, or to understand how it is being used. Alongside cookies we use similar technologies, such as your browser's local storage: where we write "cookies" here, we mean all of them.
Which cookies this site uses
Strictly necessary cookies — always on
These make the site work and do not require your consent. Without them, the site does not function.
| Cookie | Set by | What it does | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
| _secure_session_id | Shopify | Holds your browsing session together | 24 hours |
| _shopify_essential | Shopify | Core platform operation and security | 1 year |
| _cmp_a, _tracking_consent | Shopify | Remembers the choice you made on the cookie banner | 1 year |
| keep_alive | Shopify | Session continuity across regions | 30 minutes |
Analytics and marketing cookies — only with your consent
These are not set unless you accept them on the banner. They tell us how many people visit the site and which pages they read, in aggregate form, and let us measure how well our communications work.
| Cookie | Set by | What it does | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
| _shopify_y, _shopify_s | Shopify | Visit statistics and telling sessions apart | 1 year / 30 minutes |
| _landing_page, _orig_referrer | Shopify | Which page and which site you arrived from | 14 days |
This list can change when the tools we use change. The banner's preferences panel always shows the current picture.
How to choose, and how to change your mind
On your first visit a banner appears with three options: accept, reject — given equal prominence — or choose by category. Until you choose, non-essential cookies stay off.
You can change your choice at any time from Cookie preferences at the bottom of every page.
You can also manage or delete cookies from your browser settings. Bear in mind that blocking strictly necessary cookies may stop the site from working properly.
Who processes this data
The cookies on this site are set by Shopify, the platform the site runs on, acting as our data processor. Data may be transferred outside the European Union on the basis of the European Commission's standard contractual clauses.
The full picture — what data we collect, for what purposes, for how long, and what rights you have — is in our Privacy Policy.
