We also use similar technologies such as pixels and local storage, which we refer to collectively as “cookies” in this policy.
2. Types of cookies we use
Strictly necessary cookies These are required for the Site to work — for example, keeping you logged in, remembering items during checkout, and security. They cannot be switched off in our systems and do not require consent.
Functional cookies These remember choices you make (such as language or region) to give you a more personalised experience.
