Cookie Policy
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to the site owners. Cookies do not typically contain personal information that identifies you directly, but they may be linked to personal information we hold about you.
Similar technologies such as web beacons, pixels, local storage, and session storage function in analogous ways. This policy covers all such technologies collectively referred to as "cookies."
2. Cookies We Use
We use cookies for several different purposes. The categories below describe the types of cookies that may be set when you visit our site.
Essential Cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions you take such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling out forms, or to enable core commerce features such as the shopping cart and checkout process.
- cart_session — Stores your shopping cart contents so items persist between pages.
- cookie_consent — Records your cookie consent choice so we do not ask again on every visit.
- csrf_token — Security token to protect form submissions from cross-site request forgery.
You cannot opt out of essential cookies as the site will not function correctly without them.
Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. This helps us improve the site's structure, content, and performance over time.
- Google Analytics (_ga, _gid, _gat) — Tracks page views, session duration, traffic sources, and user journeys across the site. Data is aggregated and anonymized.
You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking at any time via the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies allow the website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, more personalized features. For example, they may be used to remember your language preference or region.
- lang_pref — Stores your language or region preference to display content appropriately.
- currency_pref — Remembers your selected display currency where applicable.
If you disable functional cookies, some features of the site may not work as intended, but your ability to browse and purchase will not be affected.
3. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are set by third-party services that appear on our pages. We do not control these cookies and you should refer to the respective third parties' privacy and cookie policies for more information.
- Stripe — Our payment processor may set cookies to enable secure payment processing and fraud prevention. See Stripe's Cookie Policy.
- Google Fonts / Google CDN — Fonts are loaded from Google's servers which may set performance cookies.
- Font Awesome CDN — Icon assets may be loaded from a CDN that sets basic operational cookies.
We do not sell or share any personal data collected via cookies with advertising networks for behavioral targeting purposes.
4. Managing Cookies
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can exercise your cookie preferences in the following ways:
Browser Settings
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through the browser settings. You can set your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do this, some parts of the site may not function properly.
- Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and other site data
- Mozilla Firefox: Options > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data
- Microsoft Edge: Settings > Cookies and Site Permissions > Cookies and Site Data
Our Cookie Banner
When you first visit our site, you will be presented with a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or manage your preferences individually. You can change your choices at any time by clicking the "Cookie Settings" link in the footer of any page.
5. Your Choices
You are always free to limit, block, or delete cookies from this site using your browser settings. Please be aware that restricting cookies may impact your experience — the shopping cart, checkout, and certain personalization features depend on essential cookies to function.
