It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.<\/p><h2>1. What cookies and similar technologies are<\/h2><p>Cookies are small text files placed on or read from a device when a website is visited. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels, tags and software development tools that can store or access information, recognise a browser, maintain a session, remember choices or measure website activity.<\/p><p>Some cookies are set directly by our website and are commonly called first-party cookies. Others are set by service providers whose technology is used on the website and are commonly called third-party cookies.<\/p><h2>2. Why we use them<\/h2><p>We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the website and checkout, protect sessions, prevent fraud, remember preferences, understand performance and, where consent is required and obtained, measure use or support communications and marketing. We do not use a non-essential category merely because the technology is available; it must support a legitimate and disclosed purpose.<\/p><h2>3. Strictly necessary cookies<\/h2><p>Strictly necessary technologies support functions requested by the visitor or required for security, network management and checkout. They may maintain a basket or session, remember a privacy choice, balance traffic, prevent abuse, authenticate access or complete payment. Because the website cannot provide the requested function reliably without them, consent is not usually required, although we still explain their use.<\/p><h2>4. Preference and functionality cookies<\/h2><p>These technologies remember choices such as interface preferences, region, language or previously selected settings. They can make the website more convenient but are not always essential. Where applicable law requires consent for a particular functionality technology, it will not be activated before valid consent.<\/p><h2>5. Analytics and performance cookies<\/h2><p>Analytics technologies help us understand aggregated website use, such as which pages are visited, whether an error occurs, how visitors navigate and how quickly a page responds. We use this information to diagnose problems and improve content and performance. Where these technologies are not strictly necessary, we seek consent before enabling them.<\/p><h2>6. Advertising and marketing cookies<\/h2><p>Where used, marketing technologies may measure campaign effectiveness, limit repetition or help provide more relevant advertising. They may recognise a browser across websites or services. We do not enable non-essential marketing technologies for visitors who have not provided the consent required by applicable law.<\/p><h2>7. Payment, security and embedded services<\/h2><p>Checkout, fraud prevention, security tools, media or embedded content may be supplied by third parties. A provider may set technologies necessary to deliver its component or independently process information under its own privacy and cookie documentation. The availability of a payment method or embedded feature may therefore involve provider-specific technologies.<\/p><p>We select providers for genuine operational purposes and aim to limit deployment to the functions required. A visitor should review the notice presented by the relevant provider where its service operates independently.<\/p><h2>8. Cookie duration<\/h2><p>A session cookie normally expires when the browser session ends. A persistent cookie remains until its stated expiry, it is deleted by the visitor or it is replaced. Duration depends on the purpose: security and session cookies may be short-lived, while a preference or consent record may remain longer so the website can remember a choice.<\/p><p>The precise technologies in use can change when providers update their systems. The consent interface, where displayed, is the most current source for available categories and choices on that device.<\/p><h2>9. Consent and changing your choice<\/h2><p>When required, we request a clear choice before placing or accessing non-essential technologies. Rejecting non-essential cookies does not prevent the basic website from being used, although an optional feature may be unavailable or may not remember a preference.<\/p><p>You can change or withdraw a cookie choice through the website&#8217;s consent control where available. Withdrawal does not affect processing that was lawful before withdrawal. The choice may need to be renewed if cookies are deleted, a different browser or device is used, or the consent record expires.<\/p><h2>10. Browser controls<\/h2><p>Most browsers allow users to view, block or delete cookies and to control site data. The procedure differs by browser and device. Blocking all cookies can prevent baskets, checkout, account sessions, security controls or other requested functions from operating correctly.<\/p><p>Browser settings do not necessarily control every similar technology and do not automatically withdraw information already lawfully collected. The website consent control should also be used where available.<\/p><h2>11. Legal basis and personal data<\/h2><p>Where a cookie involves personal data, processing is described in our Privacy Policy. Strictly necessary processing may rely on performance of a contract, compliance with law or legitimate interests in providing a secure service. Non-essential cookie access and related processing rely on consent where required.<\/p><h2>12. International providers<\/h2><p>A third-party provider may process information outside the United Kingdom. Where we are responsible for a restricted transfer, we use an appropriate safeguard as described in our Privacy Policy. Providers acting independently are responsible for explaining their own international processing.<\/p><h2>13. Updates to this policy<\/h2><p>We may update this policy when technology, providers, law or our website functions change. The date at the top shows the latest revision. Material changes may also be presented through the consent interface or another appropriate notice.<\/p><div class=\"policy-note\"><p><strong>Your choice matters:<\/strong> Essential technologies remain available to operate and protect the website. Non-essential categories should remain inactive until the consent required by law has been provided.<\/p><\/div><h2>14.
