Cookie Policy
Last updated 14 November 2026.
This page lists every cookie and tracking tag this website can use, who it belongs to, and how long it lasts. It is the detail behind the choice we ask you for when you first arrive.
How this works here
- When you first visit, nothing but essential cookies runs. Analytics and advertising tags are held back in code until you choose — the banner is not just a notice, it is the actual switch.
- Reject all is exactly as easy as Accept all: same button, same size, same screen. You do not have to dig through menus to say no.
- You can come back and change your mind any time, from the Cookie settings link in the footer or the button above.
- If we materially change our Privacy Notice, we ask you again rather than assuming your old answer still applies.
1. Essential — always on
These make the site work. Without them you could not add to cart or check out, so we do not ask for consent for them and you cannot switch them off here.
| Cookie | Set by | Purpose | Lasts |
|---|---|---|---|
| cart, cart_ts, cart_sig | Shopify | Remembers what is in your basket | 2 weeks |
| _secure_session_id | Shopify | Keeps your checkout session together | 24 hours |
| secure_customer_sig | Shopify | Keeps you logged in to your account | 12 months |
| _shopify_essential | Shopify | Core store functions and security | 12 months |
| _cmp_a, localization | Shopify | Remembers your consent and country | 24 hours / 12 months |
| mg_consent_v1 | Us | Stores the cookie choice you made and when, so we do not keep asking and can show what you chose. Kept in your browser only. | 12 months |
2. Analytics — only if you allow it
These tell us how many people came, which pages they read, and where they got stuck. We use it to fix the site. We do not use it to identify you personally.
| Cookie / tag | Set by | Purpose | Lasts |
|---|---|---|---|
| _clck, _clsk, CLID | Microsoft Clarity | Page interaction and session replay, so we can see where the layout confuses people | 1 year / 1 day |
| _ga, _ga_* | Google Analytics | Counts visits and measures which pages work | 2 years |
| _shopify_y, _shopify_s, _shopify_sa_* | Shopify | Shopify’s own store analytics | up to 1 year |
| Google Tag Manager | Loads the tags above. Held back entirely until you consent. | — |
3. Advertising and personalisation — only if you allow it
These let us show you relevant ads elsewhere and measure whether our ads actually worked. If you say no, you will still see ads online — they just will not be based on what you did here.
| Cookie / tag | Set by | Purpose | Lasts |
|---|---|---|---|
| _fbp, fr | Meta (Facebook, Instagram) | Measures our Facebook and Instagram ads and builds ad audiences | 3 months |
| _gcl_au, conversion tags | Google Ads | Measures Google ad clicks that led to an order | 3 months |
| OpenAI advertising pixel | OpenAI | Measures ad performance | up to 1 year |
Do we sell your data?
No. We do not sell personal data. The advertising partners above receive pseudonymised event data to measure and target advertising, which is why we ask before switching them on.
Controlling cookies in your browser
Besides the choice on this site, every browser lets you block or clear cookies — look under Settings → Privacy. Blocking essential cookies will break the cart and checkout. Clearing cookies also clears the record of your choice here, so we will ask you again on your next visit.
We honour the Global Privacy Control signal where your browser sends one.
