This Cookie Policy explains how Rosie’s Kiwi Pantry uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website.
It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains more generally how we collect and use personal information.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small files that are stored on your device when you visit a website.
They can help websites remember information about your visit, such as what you have added to your basket, your preferences, whether you are signed in, and how you use the website.
Some cookies are essential for a website to work properly, while others may be used for analytics, personalisation or marketing.
2. How we use cookies
Rosie’s Kiwi Pantry uses cookies and similar technologies to help:
- operate and secure our website;
- remember items in your basket;
- process orders and checkout;
- remember certain preferences;
- understand how visitors use our website;
- improve the performance and usability of our website; and
- support marketing or personalised experiences where you have agreed to this.
Our website is hosted on Shopify, which may also use cookies and similar technologies to provide ecommerce, security, checkout, analytics and other services.
3. Essential cookies
Some cookies are necessary for the website to function properly.
These may be used for purposes such as:
- keeping your basket working;
- maintaining secure sessions;
- processing checkout;
- preventing fraud;
- remembering privacy and cookie choices; and
- providing core website functionality.
These cookies may be used without asking for consent where the law permits because the service cannot work properly without them.
The ICO recognises an exception for cookies that are strictly necessary to provide a service requested by the user, such as remembering the contents of an online basket.
4. Analytics cookies
Analytics technologies can help us understand how people use the website, for example:
- which pages are visited;
- how visitors move around the site;
- how many people visit particular pages;
- which features are useful; and
- whether there are technical or usability problems.
We use this information to understand and improve the website.
Where consent is required, these technologies will only be used after you have made the relevant choice through our cookie controls.
5. Marketing and advertising cookies
Where enabled, marketing cookies or similar technologies may be used to help us understand the effectiveness of advertising or to provide more relevant marketing.
They may also be used by third-party services we choose to use in the future, such as advertising platforms or social-media services.
Where consent is required, we will not use these technologies for marketing purposes unless you choose to accept them.
6. Preference and personalisation cookies
Some cookies may remember choices you make so that we can provide a more convenient or personalised experience.
For example, they may remember certain website preferences between visits.
7. Shopify
Our online store is hosted by Shopify.
Shopify uses cookies and similar technologies to provide services including storefront functionality, checkout, security, fraud prevention, analytics and customer privacy controls.
Where Shopify’s cookie banner is enabled for visitors in the UK, Shopify states that non-essential data collection is controlled according to the visitor’s consent choices.
You can find further information about how Shopify handles personal information through the links provided in our Privacy Policy.
8. Third-party services
We may use third-party services or apps that place or access cookies or similar technologies.
These may include, depending on the services we use from time to time:
- payment providers;
- analytics providers;
- social-media platforms;
- email marketing services;
- advertising services; and
- Shopify apps.
Third-party providers may process information under their own privacy and cookie policies.
If we introduce new tools that materially change how cookies are used, we may update this policy and our cookie controls.
9. Your cookie choices
When required, our website will provide a cookie banner or privacy controls that allow you to make choices about non-essential cookies.
You can change your preferences later using the Cookie preferences option available through our website where provided.
Shopify supports this through its Customer privacy tools, including a cookie banner and a way for customers to revisit their consent preferences.
You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Depending on your browser, you may be able to:
- delete cookies;
- block cookies;
- block third-party cookies;
- clear cookies when you close your browser; or
- use private or incognito browsing.
Blocking essential cookies may prevent parts of the website, basket or checkout from working correctly.
10. Consent
Where consent is legally required for a cookie or similar technology, we will ask for it before using that technology.
Consent should involve a clear choice rather than being assumed simply because you continue browsing. The ICO requires users to receive clear information about cookies and, where consent is required, to have an appropriate means of choosing whether those cookies are used.
You can withdraw or change your consent at any time through the cookie preferences available on our website.
11. Changes to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes to:
- our website;
- Shopify;
- apps or third-party services we use;
- the cookies and technologies used; or
- legal or regulatory requirements.
The latest version will always be available on this page.
