What are Cookies?

A cookie is a small piece of data that a website stores on your device when you visit it. It's like leaving a note for the site to remember some information about your preferences or interactions with the site.

Why do Websites use Cookies?

Websites use cookies to make browsing more efficient and personalized. They help us remember:

• Your login credentials, so you don't have to log in every time
• Your language preferences, so we display content in a format that suits you
• The contents of your shopping cart or basket
• Any settings or customizations you've made on the site

Types of Cookies

We use several types of cookies on our site:

Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the proper functioning of our website. They enable us to remember essential information about your login and interactions, such as:

• Session ID (to maintain continuity between requests)
• Login status (so you don't have to log in every time)

Without these cookies, our site would not function correctly.

Session Cookies

These cookies are temporary and deleted when you close your browser or the session expires. They help us remember specific information about a single visit:

• Cart contents
• Search history

They're essential for enabling shopping carts, search functionality, and similar features.

Persistent Cookies

These cookies remain on your device even after closing your browser. We use them to store preferences that you've set, such as:

• Language or currency settings
• Theme or layout choices

They help us provide a more personalized experience.

Functional Cookies

These cookies allow us to remember specific actions you take on our site, such as filling out forms or browsing history:

• Form completion progress (so we don't ask you for the same information multiple times)

They enhance your overall experience but are not essential.

You can also manually delete individual cookies by checking the website's cookie settings.

Site Functionality Impact When Cookies are Disabled

Disabling or blocking all cookies might cause some functionality issues, such as:
