1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We also use browser localStorage for your shopping cart when you have given consent.

2. Cookies We Use

• Essential — Admin session (httpOnly cookie): Used only when a store administrator signs in. Not set for regular shoppers. Duration: up to 7 days.
• Functional — Cart (localStorage): Remembers items in your cart between visits when you choose "Accept all" on our cookie banner. If you choose "Essential only," the cart works during your session but is not persisted after you close the browser.
• Consent preference (localStorage): Stores your cookie choice so we do not show the banner on every visit.

3. Third-Party Services

When you checkout, Stripe may set cookies required for fraud prevention and payment processing. See Stripe's Privacy Policy.

You can change your choice at any time by clearing site data in your browser or visiting this page after clearing the sillycon-cookie-consent key in localStorage — the consent banner will appear again.
