At Privazz, we use cookies and similar technologies to help our website function properly, improve your browsing experience, analyse website traffic, and, where permitted, support marketing and personalisation.
This Cookies Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and what choices you have in relation to them.
This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites recognise your device and remember certain information about your visit, such as your preferences, activity, or session details.
Similar technologies, such as pixels, tags, scripts, and local storage, may also be used for related purposes.
2. Why we use cookies
We may use cookies and similar technologies to:
- ensure the website functions properly
- remember your preferences and settings
- support essential shopping features, such as basket and checkout functionality
- analyse traffic and user behaviour on our website
- improve website performance and user experience
- measure the effectiveness of marketing campaigns
- personalise content or advertising, where applicable
3. Types of cookies we may use
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the operation of our website and online store. They enable core functions such as page navigation, secure areas, checkout, and order processing.
Because these cookies are strictly necessary for the service requested, they do not usually require consent. The ICO distinguishes these from non-essential cookies.
Performance and Analytics Cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors use our website, such as which pages are visited most often and whether users encounter errors.
They allow us to improve the way the site works.
Functionality Cookies
These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make, such as language or region preferences, and provide enhanced features.
Advertising and Marketing Cookies
These cookies may be used to deliver more relevant advertising, measure campaign performance, and support remarketing through third-party platforms.
Under UK rules, these types of cookies will generally require your consent before being placed on your device.
4. Third-party cookies
Some cookies or similar technologies may be placed by third-party services we use to operate or improve our store, such as:
- website analytics providers
- payment and checkout services
- marketing and advertising partners
- e-commerce platform tools
- embedded content or social media integrations
These third parties may collect information in accordance with their own privacy and cookie policies.
5. Consent
When you first visit our website, you may be presented with a cookie banner or consent tool allowing you to accept, reject, or manage certain categories of cookies.
Where required by law, we will only place non-essential cookies on your device after obtaining your consent. The ICO states that consent must be given by a clear positive action and must be as easy to refuse as to accept.
You can change your cookie preferences at any time through the cookie settings tool on our website, where available.
6. Managing cookies through your browser
Most web browsers allow you to manage cookies through browser settings. You can usually choose to block or delete cookies, or to receive a notification before a cookie is stored.
Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality and performance of our website, including shopping and checkout features.
7. How long cookies remain on your device
Some cookies are deleted when you close your browser. These are often known as session cookies.
Others remain on your device for a set period or until deleted manually. These are often known as persistent cookies.
The duration will depend on the purpose of the cookie and the settings applied by us or the relevant third party.
8. Updates to this Cookies Policy
We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect legal, technical, or operational changes.
Any updated version will be published on this page and will take effect from the time it is posted.
