What cookies are
Cookies are small files that a website stores on your device. Some are needed for the site to work. Others help us understand how the site is used. This policy also covers similar storage in your browser, which works in the same way.
Your choice
When you first visit, our cookie banner asks before any optional cookies are used. You can accept all, reject all, or choose by type with "Manage choices":
- Analytics: show us which pages are visited and how the site is used, so we can improve it.
- Marketing: let us measure adverts and show relevant ones on other sites.
- Preferences: remember settings you choose between visits.
Nothing optional is switched on until you say yes, and rejecting is as easy as accepting. Your choice is recorded by Shopify, which runs our shop and checkout, so it also applies at checkout.
Cookies we always use
These are needed for the shop to work, so they do not need your consent. They are set by Shopify, which runs our website and checkout.
| Cookie | What it does | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|
| _shopify_essential | Keeps the shop and checkout working: your visit, checkout details and protection against tampering | 1 year |
| _tracking_consent | Remembers your cookie choices | 1 year |
| cart | Remembers what is in your bag | Up to 3 months |
| cart_currency | After an order, starts your next bag in the same currency | 2 weeks |
| localization | Sets your bag to the right country | 1 year |
| discount_code | Holds a discount code from a link until you check out | Until you close your browser |
| shopify_pay | Signs you back in to Shop Pay at checkout, if you use it | 1 year |
| _shop_app_essential | Set by Shop (part of Shopify) on shop.app, so Shop Pay and "Sign in with Shop" work | 1 year |
| storefront_digest | Only while the shop is being prepared: lets people with the password see it | 1 year |
Shopify may add or rename essential cookies from time to time. Signing in to your account also uses Shopify's own sign-in cookies.
Storage for this visit only
Our website also keeps a few small notes in your browser for the current visit only, such as whether your bag was open when you moved to another page, the delivery estimate it has worked out, your rewards points balance if you are signed in (so it is not fetched again on every page), and whether you have already seen the homepage animation. They are not shared with anyone and are deleted when you close the browser tab.
Cookies we use only with your consent
These are set by Shopify, or by Google through Shopify, only if you say yes to that type of cookie.
| Cookie | Type | What it does | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|---|
| _shopify_analytics | Analytics | Counts visits and shows us how the site and checkout are used | 1 year |
| _shopify_marketing | Marketing | Holds marketing information for the shop and checkout | 1 year |
| _ga | Analytics | Google Analytics: tells one visitor from another, so we can count visits | 2 years |
| _ga_ followed by a code | Analytics | Google Analytics and Google Merchant Center, one cookie each: keeps track of your visit (for Merchant Center, whether you came from our product listings on Google) | 2 years |
| _gcl_au | Marketing | Google Ads: links your visit to an advert you clicked, so we can see whether our adverts work | 90 days |
We use Google Ads only to measure our own adverts. We run no social media tracking and set no preference cookies. If that changes, we will ask for your consent first and update this page.
Changing your choice
You can change your choice at any time with the "Cookie settings" link at the bottom of every page. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings, although parts of the shop, such as your bag, may then stop working.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top shows when it last changed.
Common questions
Do I have to accept cookies?
No. Reject all, or simply leave the optional types switched off, and we use only the cookies the shop needs to work.
How do I change my mind?
Use the "Cookie settings" link at the bottom of any page. Your new choice applies straight away.
Do you use advertising cookies?
Only if you say yes to marketing cookies. Google Ads then uses them to tell us whether our adverts lead to visits and orders. We run no social media tracking.
