Legal / Cookies
Cookie policy.
Which cookies and browser storage this site uses, why, and for how long - and how to say yes or no to the optional ones. The short version: what keeps the shop working is always on, and analytics runs only if you allow it.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser and reads back later. Browsers also offer local storage, which works in a similar way but stays on your device and is never sent to the server by itself. This policy covers both; below, we call them all cookies for short.
The cookies this site sets are first-party: they belong to our domain and only we can read them. The services you reach from here - maib's payment page, Google sign-in, Instagram - set their own cookies on their own domains, under their own policies.
Your choice
On your first visit, a banner asks whether you allow optional cookies. You can accept all of them, keep only the necessary ones, or choose by category. Nothing optional runs before you decide, and refusing takes exactly as much effort as accepting.
You can change your mind at any time with Cookie settings at the bottom of every page. We keep your choice for 6 months and then ask again - sooner, if we change what the site uses.
Necessary cookies cannot be switched off in the banner, because the site cannot work without them, and the law allows them without consent. You can still block or delete them in your browser, at the cost of being signed out and losing your selection.
Necessary cookies
Each of these is set only when the feature that needs it is used, and none of them follows you to other sites.
| Name | Type | What it does | How long |
|---|---|---|---|
__ | Cookie | Keeps you signed in, by proving to the site that it is you. Set when you sign in. | 30 days, renewed while you use the site; removed when you sign out |
__ | Cookie | Renews your sign-in, so you are not asked for a new code on every visit. | 30 days; removed when you sign out |
__ | Cookie | Protects sign-in with Google from being intercepted between this site and Google. Set only when you choose Google. | Until that sign-in completes |
NEXT_ | Cookie | Remembers the language you read the site in. | 1 year |
sr_ | Cookie | Remembers your cookie choices, so the banner does not ask again on every page. | 6 months |
______ | Local storage | This browser's copy of your sign-in, so every tab you have open stays signed in. | Until you sign out |
sr_ | Local storage | Your selection: the products in your cart. | Until you empty the cart or clear your browser storage |
sr_ | Local storage | Notes that this browser's cart has been joined to your account's, so from then on your account's cart leads and products you have bought or removed elsewhere do not come back. | Until you sign out |
sr_ | Local storage | Keeps the contact and delivery details you type at checkout, so a refresh or a later visit does not lose them. | Until you clear your browser storage |
sr_ | Local storage | Remembers that you closed the announcement bar. | Until you clear your browser storage |
Analytics (optional)
If you allow analytics, the site loads Vercel Web Analytics, which counts visits so we can see which pages are read and where visitors come from. It sets no cookies and stores nothing on your device.
For each page view it records the page address - we remove the query string before it is sent - the site you came from, your browser, operating system and device type, and an approximate location (country, region and city) derived from your IP address, which is not stored. Visitors are told apart by a hash that is discarded after 24 hours, so the statistics show totals, not individuals. Vercel Inc. processes this data on our behalf.
If you refuse analytics, the script is not loaded at all. If you withdraw your consent later, it stops sending data straight away.
Cookies on other sites
- maib - when you pay, you are taken to maib's payment page, which uses its own cookies to process the payment and 3-D Secure. They are governed by maib's policies.
- Google - only if you choose to sign in with Google, on Google's own pages and under Google's policies.
- Instagram - we only link to our Instagram profile; nothing from Instagram is loaded on our pages until you follow the link.
Managing cookies in your browser
Every browser lets you see, block and delete cookies and site data - look under Privacy or Site settings. Blocking the necessary cookies signs you out and empties your selection; deleting our consent cookie means the banner asks again on your next visit.
Changes to this policy
When the site starts or stops using a cookie, this page changes with it, and the date at the top changes too. If we add a new kind of optional cookie, we ask for your consent again before using it.
