Cookies and analytics
We use cookies to make our website work properly and to understand how people use it. Some cookies are essential (for things like checkout and security), while others help us analyse performance and improve the site. You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. If you disable essential cookies, some features may not function correctly.
How long we keep your information
We only keep your data for as long as it’s needed for the reason we collected it — for example, while your account or order is active, or as required by law. After this period, we securely delete or anonymise your data so it can no longer identify you.

We use secure systems and best practices to keep your information safe. This includes SSL encryption, restricted access controls, and trusted hosting providers.
We regularly review our security processes to make sure your data stays protected from unauthorised access or loss.
