What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies may store or access information through your browser or device. They can help a website remember a session, keep a basket working, protect forms and accounts, remember preferences or measure how the website performs.
Some cookies are required for the website to operate. Other cookies are optional and should be used only when the relevant choice or consent has been provided.
Cookie categories
The categories shown in our consent tool describe the purpose of cookies rather than guaranteeing that every category is active at all times. Website services and cookie names may change when our store, plugins or service providers are updated.
- Strictly Necessary
- Support essential functions such as security, sessions, account access, basket and checkout. These cannot normally be switched off through the consent tool because the requested website service may not work without them.
- Functional
- Remember optional choices that improve convenience, such as interface or service preferences.
- Analytics
- Help us understand how visitors use the website and identify performance or navigation problems, where these tools are enabled and the required consent has been obtained.
- Advertisement
- May support advertising measurement or personalised advertising where advertising services are enabled. These should remain optional.
- Other
- Cookies that are being reviewed or do not yet fit another confirmed category. We review uncategorised cookies as website services change.
Store, basket and account cookies
POTATOTECH uses WordPress and WooCommerce to operate the website and online store. Essential cookies may be used to:
- maintain a secure website or account session;
- remember products placed in a basket;
- support checkout and order-processing steps;
- prevent duplicate submissions, fraud or unauthorised access; and
- remember whether you have made a cookie choice.
Disabling essential browser storage may prevent account, basket or checkout features from working correctly.
Third-party services
Some website functions may be supplied by hosting, security, payment, communication, analytics, embedded-content or other service providers. A third party may set or receive cookies only where its service is active on the page and subject to the applicable consent settings.
Cookie list accuracyOur detailed cookie inventory depends on the website scan and current service configuration. Until the current scan is refreshed, this page provides purpose-based categories rather than an unverified list of individual cookie names or expiry periods.
Manage or withdraw your choices
You can review or change optional cookie choices by selecting the Consent Preferences icon displayed on the website. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that took place lawfully before the withdrawal.
You can also delete or block cookies through your browser settings. Browser controls vary, and blocking all cookies may prevent essential store features from working.
Updates to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when website functions, service providers, cookie categories or legal requirements change. The effective date at the top of this page identifies the current published version.
For related information about personal information, please read our Privacy Policy.
