What are cookies?

A cookie is a small piece of information sent by an internet server to be kept on an internet browser so it can be read back in the future. This is useful for having the browser remember some specific information.

The use of cookies is governed by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the ePrivacy Regulation. According to the ePrivacy Directive, we can store cookies on your device if they are strictly necessary for the operation of the website. For all other types of cookies, we need your consent

Cookies are used by almost all websites, for various purposes:

  • analysis of visitors’ behaviour (known as ‘analytics’)
  • to personalise web pages and remember visitors’ preferences
  • to manage shopping carts in online shops
  • to track people across websites and deliver behavioural advertising

Our website uses two kinds of cookie files:

Persistent cookies – Google Analytics – we use this to get to know how the site is being used so that we can improve the user experience. User data is all anonymous. These cookies are used to gather information about how visitors navigate our site. We use the information to compile reports and to make the site more user-friendly. The cookies gather information in an anonymous way, regarding the number of site visitors, where visitors have come to the site from and the particular pages they visited.

Session cookies – we used session cookies for site functionality e.g. to remember logins and products in a shopping cart. These are absolutely necessary for the proper functioning of the site and we do not recommend blocking them.

Meta Pixel usage:

We use the Meta Pixel (formerly Facebook Pixel), a tracking tool provided by Meta Platforms Inc., on our website. This tool allows us to measure the effectiveness of our advertising by understanding the actions users take on our site after viewing or clicking a Meta ad.

Meta Pixel Cookie Details:
  • Cookie Purpose: Advertising, remarketing, analytics
  • Provider: Meta Platforms Inc.
  • Cookie Type: Third-party
  • Data Collected: Page visits, IP address, user agent, activity on site
  • Data Usage: Personalized ads on Meta platforms, conversion tracking, audience creation

Use of local storage

In addition to cookies, our website and third-party services (such as Google Ads) may use local storage — a type of browser storage — to save and retrieve small pieces of data on your device.

Example:

  • _gcl_au / _gcl_ls (Google Ads)

    • Purpose: These items are used to measure advertising performance, track conversions (e.g., form submissions, purchases), and improve the effectiveness of our Google Ads campaigns.

    • Storage Type: Browser local storage

    • Duration: Typically up to 90 days, depending on your browser settings and Google’s configuration.

Unlike cookies, local storage data is not automatically deleted when you close your browser. You can manually clear this data at any time by visiting your browser settings.
