A cookie is a small file a site stores in your browser. We keep ours to the minimum needed to make the shop work — we do not run advertising or analytics cookies, and there is nothing here to opt into for marketing purposes.
What we set
These are strictly necessary: without them you could not stay signed in, keep a basket, or check out. They do not need your consent, and blocking them will break the shop.
| Cookie | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|
wp_woocommerce_session_* | Links your browser to your basket and checkout on our server | Session, up to 2 days |
woocommerce_cart_hash, woocommerce_items_in_cart | Tells the page when your basket has changed | Session |
wordpress_logged_in_*, wordpress_sec_* | Keeps you signed in and secures the session | Session, or up to 14 days |
wp-settings-* | Remembers interface preferences for signed-in users | Up to 1 year |
enigma_oauth_v | Guards sign-in with Google or Discord against request forgery; set only while signing in | 10 minutes |
Cookies set by Stripe
Card payments run through Stripe, which sets its own cookies — typically __stripe_mid and __stripe_sid — to spot fraudulent payments. These are necessary for taking payment safely. Stripe explains them in its own privacy documentation.
Cookies set by PayPal
If you pay with PayPal, PayPal sets its own cookies on its checkout to keep your session and to spot fraudulent payments. These are necessary for taking payment that way, and PayPal describes them in its own cookie statement.
What we do not set
No Google Analytics, no advertising or social pixels, no cross-site tracking. If that changes we will update this page and ask for your consent before any non-essential cookie is set.
Managing cookies
Every browser lets you see, delete and block cookies in its settings. Because ours are strictly necessary, blocking them will stop you signing in or completing an order. Clearing them signs you out and empties your basket.
