This Cookie Policy explains how tripodairdry (“we”, “us”, or “our”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website, www.tripodairdry.com. By using our Website, you acknowledge the practices described in this policy.
1. Understanding Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device to store data that can be recalled by a web server in the domain that placed the cookie. We use these tools to maintain the stability of our Website, understand how visitors interact with our pages, and facilitate the checkout process.
2. Control and Consent
We respect the privacy of our visitors. Our Website employs a cookie consent banner.
- Essential Cookies: These are necessary for the Website to function and cannot be switched off.
- Non-Essential Cookies: We only deploy analytical or preference cookies if you explicitly click the “Accept” button on our cookie banner. You have the right to withdraw your consent or modify your choices at any time through your browser settings.
3. Categories of Cookies Used
We categorise cookies based on their purpose and duration:
A. Necessary Cookies
These are fundamental to the operation of www.tripodairdry.com. They enable core utility such as basket functionality and secure account access. Without these, the Website cannot function as intended.
B. Analytical and Performance Cookies
These allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and see how they move around our Website. This helps us improve the way our Website works, for example, by ensuring that users find what they are looking for easily.
C. Third-Party Payment Cookies (Stripe)
To facilitate commercial transactions, our Website integrates services provided by Stripe. Stripe may use cookies to assist with payment processing, prevent fraudulent activity, and ensure the stability of the payment journey. These cookies are managed by Stripe and are subject to Stripe’s own privacy and cookie policies.
4. Data Retention Periods
The duration for which a cookie remains on your device depends on whether it is a “persistent” or “session” cookie:
- Session Cookies: These are temporary and expire once you close your browser or your session ends.
- Persistent Cookies: These remain on your device for a set period. On our Website, persistent cookies typically remain for a duration ranging from 30 days to 12 months, depending on their specific function (e.g., remembering your language preferences or helping us understand repeat visit patterns).
5. Managing Your Preferences
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You may set your browser to block cookies or alert you when cookies are being sent. However, please note that if you disable essential cookies, certain parts of www.tripodairdry.com may not function correctly.
