Cookie Policy
Last updated: 10 September 2026
A cookie is a small text file a website stores in your browser. We use very few, and none of them follow you to other websites.
What we currently use
Strictly necessary cookies. These make the shop work. Without them you could not keep items in a basket or stay signed in.
- Cart and session cookies — set by WooCommerce, they remember what is in your basket while you shop.
- Login cookies — set by WordPress when you sign in, so you stay signed in between pages.
- Settings cookies — remember choices such as dismissing a notice.
These cannot be switched off without breaking the site, and they do not require consent because the site cannot function without them.
Analytics
Google Analytics 4. We use Google Analytics 4 to count visits and see which pages people actually read. It sets cookies in your browser (named _ga and _ga_…) which give your browser a random identifier, so we can tell a returning visit from a new one.
What it tells us is aggregate: how many people came, which pages they opened, roughly which country they were in, and whether they were on a phone or a computer. It does not tell us who you are, and we do not use it to build a profile of you or to advertise to you. Google processes this information as our analytics provider, and Google’s own privacy terms govern what it does with it.
We do not currently show a consent banner before these cookies are set. If you would rather not be counted, your browser’s cookie settings, or Google’s own opt-out browser add-on, will stop it — and nothing on this site will break if you do.
What we do not use
No advertising pixels. No Meta Pixel. No cross-site tracking cookies. We do not sell or share what we collect. Apart from Google Analytics above, and Razorpay when you pay, no third party sets cookies here.
Payment
When you pay, Razorpay may set its own cookies on its checkout to process the transaction securely and prevent fraud. That is governed by Razorpay’s own privacy and cookie policies.
Links to other sites
When you click through to a retailer we recommend, that retailer sets its own cookies, including affiliate tracking cookies that record that you arrived from us. We have no control over these. Their policies apply once you leave our site.
Managing cookies
Every browser lets you view, block and delete cookies in its settings. Blocking cookies from this site will stop the basket and sign-in from working, so you will not be able to buy anything.
