Cookie Policy.

1. What Cookies Are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow a site to remember your actions and preferences over time. We also use closely related technologies such as local storage and pixels; this policy covers all of them.

2. Categories We Use

• Strictly necessary: Required for the site to function — maintaining your signed-in session, remembering your cart, securing checkout, and recording your cookie choice. These cannot be switched off.
• Analytics: Help us understand which pages are read, how visitors navigate, and where experiences break. Used in aggregate.
• Marketing: Set by advertising platforms to measure campaign performance and show relevant content. Only set with your consent.

3. Third Parties

Some cookies are set by service providers acting on our behalf, including our payment processor (Stripe) for fraud prevention and secure checkout, our hosting and backend infrastructure for session management, and — where enabled — analytics and advertising platforms such as Google, Meta, Pinterest, LinkedIn, or TikTok. These providers process data under their own privacy policies.

4. Managing Your Preferences

When you first visit, a banner lets you accept or decline non-essential cookies. You can change your choice at any time by clearing this site's data in your browser and reloading the page. Most browsers also allow you to block or delete cookies entirely through their settings — note that blocking strictly necessary cookies will prevent checkout and account features from working.

5. Do Not Track

Browsers signal preferences inconsistently. Where a recognised Global Privacy Control signal is received, we treat it as a request to decline non-essential cookies.
