Cookie Policy

What are cookies?
Cookies are small files stored on your device by your browser. Similar technologies include localStorage, sessionStorage, and IndexedDB. This policy covers all of them together as "cookies" unless we specifically say otherwise.
How we use cookies
We split cookies into three categories. Essential cookies are required for the site to work and you cannot turn them off. Analytics and marketing cookies are optional — you choose whether to allow them on our cookie banner and can change your mind anytime.
- Essential — sign-in, security, language, anti-fraud.
- Analytics — helps us understand which features work and where bugs happen.
- Marketing — not currently used. Reserved for future features like abandoned-cart reminders on our pricing page.

How to change your choice
Open the cookie banner at any time by clicking "Cookie preferences" in the footer of any page. Your browser also lets you block or delete cookies — see the help pages for Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or Edge. Blocking essential cookies will prevent sign-in and checkout from working.
