Last updated: [DATE]. This Cookie Policy explains how [COMPANY_LEGAL_NAME] uses cookies and similar technologies on this website, in line with the EU ePrivacy rules and the GDPR.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site function, remember your preferences, and — where you consent — measure how the site is used.
2. Categories of cookies we use
Strictly necessary (always active)
Required for the website to function: session management, shopping cart, login state, security, and consent storage. These cannot be switched off and do not require consent.
Analytics (consent required)
Used to measure traffic and understand how visitors use the site, so we can improve it. These are loaded only after you accept them. Depending on configuration we may use privacy-friendly analytics with IP anonymisation.
Marketing (consent required)
Used to deliver relevant content or measure campaigns. These are set only with your explicit consent.
3. Managing your consent
When you first visit, a banner lets you accept all, refuse, or choose per category. Refusing is as easy as accepting. You can change your choice at any time via the "Cookie settings" link in the footer. Non-essential cookies are never set before you consent.
4. Storage duration
Your consent preference is stored on your device. Analytics and marketing cookies have their own retention periods set by the respective provider; necessary cookies typically last for the session or a short period.
5. Third-party cookies
Some cookies may be set by third parties (e.g. analytics or payment providers) when their services are active. These providers process data under their own privacy policies.
6. More information
For how we handle personal data generally, see our Privacy Policy. Questions can be sent to [COMPANY_EMAIL].
