Cookies

Your choice

The banner on your first visit gives you two options: essential only or accept all. Choosing essential only means no analytics or attribution cookies are set and no analytics events are sent. Your choice is remembered on your own device and nowhere else.

Changed your mind? Clear this site's data in your browser settings and the banner will ask you again on your next visit.

Essential — always on

These are needed to make the site work, so they do not need your consent.

• ud-cookie-consent — remembers whether you said essential only or accept all, so we stop asking. Stored in your browser rather than sent to us.
• Sign-in and security — if you create an account, cookies keep you signed in and protect forms against cross-site request forgery. They go when you sign out.
• Your cart — remembers what you have added, in your own browser, so it is still there when you come back.

Analytics — only if you accept

These tell us which pages are useful and where people get stuck. Nothing here identifies you by name.

• ud_anon — a random identifier so repeat visits from the same browser count as one person rather than several. It is not linked to your name or email.
• ud_attr — remembers how you arrived (a search, a link, an ad) so we know what is worth doing again.
• Google Analytics, loaded through Google Tag Manager — page views and clicks. Google sets its own cookies and acts as our processor. Their privacy policy explains what they do with it.

Analytics data is kept for up to 14 months and then deleted.

What we do not do

We do not use advertising cookies, we do not let anyone else track you across other websites from here, and we do not sell what we collect.

Blocking cookies yourself

Every browser lets you block or delete cookies in its settings. If you block the essential ones, signing in and the cart will stop working properly — the rest of the site will be fine.
