What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your computer by the websites you visit.

They track your interactions with a website to make it work more efficiently for future sessions.

Cookies have many different uses. For example, they can store information to help you enter a site without having to log in. They can also help a website remember your preferred settings so it reloads them on your next visit.

Cookies do not normally store personal information.

Cookies we use

A cookie is a small piece of data (text file) that a website – when visited by a user – asks your browser to store on your device in order to remember information about you, such as your language preference or login information. Those cookies are set by us and called first-party cookies. We also use third-party cookies – which are cookies from a domain different than the domain of the website you are visiting – for our advertising and marketing efforts. More specifically, we use cookies and other tracking technologies for the following purposes:

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the site will not then work. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information.

Facebook Conversions API

We use the Facebook Conversions API to measure the impact of our advertising, report on website conversions and improve ad targeting through custom audiences. Encrypted online shop data is sent directly to Facebook via the Facebook for Woocommerce plugin. We use Google Tag Manager to send encrypted personally-identifiable data from our website to a Google Cloud server before being sent to Facebook. User-ID string and IP address are sent unencrypted. You can reject the use of the Facebook Conversions API by clicking Manage cookies' and disabling Targeting cookies'.
