Cookies Policy

We use cookies on our website to provide you with the best possible experience. This policy explains what cookies are, why we use them, and how you can manage them.

What Cookies Are

Cookies are small pieces of data that websites store on your device when you visit them. They help us remember your preferences, login details, and other information so we can provide a more tailored service. Most websites use cookies to some extent, but they're not always visible or intrusive.

Why We Use Cookies

We use cookies for several reasons:

  • To remember your login details, so you don't have to log in every time
  • To save your preferences, such as language settings and layout choices
  • To help us understand how our website is used, allowing us to improve its performance and content
  • To enable certain features, like shopping carts or wish lists

Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the basic functioning of our website. They allow you to use essential services, such as logging in, filling out forms, and accessing secure areas.

Some examples of essential cookies include:

  • Session IDs: used to remember your login details
  • CSRF tokens: protect against cross-site request forgery attacks

Session Cookies

Session cookies are temporary and deleted when you close your browser. They help us track your movements on our website while you're logged in, allowing us to provide a more seamless experience.

Example of session cookie:

  • PHPSESSID (generated by our content management system)

Persistent Cookies

Persistent cookies remain stored on your device for longer periods, even after closing your browser. We use these cookies to remember your preferences and login details.

Examples of persistent cookies include:

  • User ID: helps us identify you when logged in
  • Language settings: remembers the language choice you select

Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow our website to provide a more personalized experience by remembering your actions, choices, or history with our site. They help us tailor content and offers to better match what interests you.

Some examples of functional cookies include:

  • Recent view product list
  • Added items in shopping cart
  • Cookie consent preferences (more on this below)

Analytics and Performance Cookies

These cookies help us understand how users interact with our website, allowing us to optimize its performance, content, and structure. We use data from these cookies to make improvements, like reducing loading times or adjusting navigation.

Examples of analytics and performance cookies:

  • Google Analytics: measures traffic, engagement, and other metrics
  • Webtrends: monitors browsing behavior for optimization

Preference and Language Settings

We allow you to choose your language settings and adjust some preferences. These changes are stored in our systems using cookies to ensure they persist across visits.

Login/Session Continuity

When you log in or remain logged in, we use session cookies to remember your details temporarily. This allows us to maintain a secure connection for as long as necessary.

Device Recognition

Some cookies help us identify devices that interact with our website. This information is used solely to improve performance and ensure secure access.

Examples:

  • Browser type: helps us adjust content delivery
  • Screen resolution: aids in layout optimization

Security-Related Cookies

We use security-related cookies to prevent attacks or maintain a secure connection, as well as store certain authentication data securely.

Example of a security cookie:

  • ASP.NET_SessionId (generated by our website's underlying framework)

Browser Storage Technologies

Our site supports the standard storage technologies allowed in most browsers. These help us save data for later use without relying on traditional cookies. For example:

  • Web storage: allows local storage of user preferences
  • IndexedDB: stores more extensive amounts of structured data

We also support third-party integrations, including services like Google Analytics or advertising networks, which may place their own cookies.

Marketing and Communication Preferences

You can control our marketing communications by adjusting your cookie consent settings. This affects how you receive information from us in the future.

To manage these preferences:

  1. Click on the 'Cookie Consent' button at the bottom of every page.
  2. Select "Manage Settings" or equivalent.
  3. Adjust your choices there to suit your needs.

Browser Cookie Controls

Most modern browsers offer controls for managing cookies, including deleting them entirely when you close your browser, blocking some types of cookies, and more.

  • Check your browser's settings (e.g., 'Preferences', 'Settings', etc.) under the Privacy or Content section.
  • Enable any available privacy features to limit cookie storage on your device.

Clearing or Disabling Cookies

You can clear all stored cookies at once in most browsers. Alternatively, you may choose to disable certain types of cookies altogether:

  1. Check browser settings (mentioned above).
  2. Look for sections related to "Cookies", "Privacy," and/or "Content."
  3. Adjust your preferences as desired.

Please note that disabling or deleting some cookies may affect our site's functionality in specific ways, as detailed below.

Site Functionality with Cookies Disabled

While we strive to make sure most of the essential features remain accessible even without cookies:

  • Certain dynamic content might not load correctly.
  • Some services relying on persistent storage (e.g., login information) could be temporarily unavailable until you re-enable or reset your cookie settings.

To mitigate potential issues, please explore our other security measures and diagnostics tools below for support in debugging performance-related problems.

Technical Diagnostics and Performance Optimisation

While most of the functionality remains unaffected with cookies disabled, there's a slight risk that some technical diagnostics might not run smoothly without them. This includes:

  • Tracking how well certain scripts function (some relying on stored data).
  • Debugging potential issues due to missing session IDs or cookie errors.

When you experience any technical problems or performance issues related to cookies being blocked/disabled please refer to our support section for more detailed information and guidance.

Aggregated Analytics Information

If we combine the anonymous data gathered through various means, including analytics tools like Google Analytics, this does not create a unique cookie profile linked back to an identifiable user. This allows us to create anonymized datasets useful in aggregate analyses without violating personal privacy rights or any applicable regulations concerning data retention and handling.

User Experience Improvements

Our goal is always to improve our users' overall experience on the platform while balancing concerns around performance, security, and compliance with various legislatures regarding sensitive information storage. You can help us achieve this by enabling analytics cookies (specifically for legitimate profiling) or providing your explicit consent before collecting relevant data.
