What are cookies?

A cookie is a small file that is stored on the hard drive of your computer, smartphone, or other device. With the help of this file, it is possible to recognise your device/IP address and to reuse information about pages you have already visited or to record functions you have used.

 

We use both our own and third-party cookies. Third-party cookies are used by external partners, such as partners who provide content for our websites, suppliers who are responsible for the various features of the website, or programs we use for our analytics and marketing. Through these third-party cookies, these external partners may collect data, such as your IP address and information about your browsing behaviour.

 

What are cookies used for?

We use cookies to track you and your behaviour on our website, social media platforms, and third-party websites so that we can provide you with a better user experience on our website and remember the choices you make when using it, such as your choice of country. We also use cookies to continually improve the content and functionality on our websites for you. In addition, we use cookies to tailor our marketing to your interests and to compile statistics on the use of our websites.

 

Overall, the cookies can be divided into the following five categories: 

  • Essential cookies

Shopify Analytics

As you can see above, we use Shopify Analytics. Shopify Analytics uses cookies, which are text files placed on your device, to help the website analyse how users use our website. The information generated by these cookies, such as the time, place, and frequency of your website visit, including your IP address, is transmitted to Shopify and stored there. In this case, your IP address will already be shortened by Shopify and thus anonymised.

 

Shopify will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of our website, compiling reports on website activity for website operators and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage. Shopify may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Shopify's behalf.

You should be aware that if you disable/reject certain cookies, we will not be able to provide you with the best possible user experience on our website, as there may be services and features that you will not be able to use if cookies are required for us to remember the choices you have made.

 

You can revoke your consent or change your cookie settings at any time.
