5. Services that may use cookies

Depending on the features you use and the choices you make, cookies or similar technologies may be used in connection with the following:

6. Third-party cookies

Some website features are provided by third parties, such as payment processors, analytics providers, advertising platforms, email providers and social-media services. These third parties may place their own cookies or use similar technologies when you interact with their services.

Third-party providers are responsible for the cookies they place and may process information in accordance with their own privacy and cookie policies. Where required, non-essential third-party cookies will only be activated after you have given your consent.

7. Your consent and choices

When you first visit our website, you will be shown a cookie consent banner. You may accept optional cookies, reject them or choose the individual categories you wish to permit.

Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent where they are essential to provide the website or a service you have requested. Optional cookies will not be used unless the required consent has been obtained.

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time by selecting the cookie settings or consent control available on the website. Withdrawing consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before your consent was withdrawn.

Your choice will normally apply to the browser and device you are using. If you use another device or browser, or delete your cookies, you may need to make your choices again.

8. Browser controls

Most internet browsers allow you to view, block or delete cookies through their privacy or security settings. Instructions are normally available within the help section of your browser.

Please be aware that blocking or deleting strictly necessary cookies may prevent parts of the website from working correctly. For example, you may be unable to keep products in your shopping bag, sign in to your account or complete checkout.

9. How long cookies remain on your device

The period for which a cookie remains on your device depends on its purpose and whether it is a session or persistent cookie.

Session cookies generally expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain for the period assigned to them, unless you delete them earlier. The current retention information for cookies used by the website is available through our cookie preference tool.
