Politique relative aux cookies
This Cookie Policy explains how cookies and similar technologies may be used on bdsmsextoy.co.uk, why they are used and how you can manage your choices. Please read it alongside our Privacy Policy.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small files stored on your device when you visit a website. They can help maintain your shopping basket, support secure account access and remember settings you have selected.
Similar technologies, including local storage, pixels and certain scripts, may also store or access information on your device. References to cookies in this policy include these technologies where relevant.
Types of Cookies
The categories below describe possible uses. They do not confirm that every category is active on bdsmsextoy.co.uk.
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These support functions needed to provide a service you request, such as storing basket contents, maintaining a login session and enabling checkout. Prior consent is not required where the applicable legal exemption is satisfied.
Preference Cookies
These may remember choices such as language, region or display settings. Consent requirements depend on the specific purpose and whether a relevant exemption applies.
Analytics Cookies
Where analytics tools are used, they may help identify popular pages, navigation difficulties and technical errors. Technologies requiring consent must remain inactive until you agree. Any use under a statutory exception must satisfy its conditions, including providing an objection option where required.
Advertising Cookies
Where advertising technologies are used, they may measure campaign performance or support personalised advertising. Some can recognise activity across websites. Consent is required where these activities are not covered by a legal exception. ico.org.uk
Information These Technologies May Process
Depending on their configuration, cookies and similar technologies may involve:
- Browser, operating system and device details.
- IP addresses and technical identifiers.
- Pages viewed and interactions with website features.
- Basket contents and selected preferences.
- Referral information and advertising interactions.
- Consent choices and related records.
Browsing and purchase information on an adult retail website can be particularly private. Such information should not automatically be treated as proof of a person’s sexual interests, orientation or behaviour. Any processing that reveals or infers special category information requires additional legal assessment and safeguards.
Consent and Your Choices
Where consent is required, the relevant technologies must not be activated before you make an affirmative choice. Visiting the website, scrolling or continuing to browse does not, by itself, constitute consent.
Any cookie consent controls provided should allow you to accept, reject or select the relevant optional categories. Declining optional tracking should leave basic shopping functions available, although some optional features may be affected.
Where a statutory exception applies, the required information and any applicable objection mechanism must be provided. A cookie’s category label alone does not establish an exemption. ico.org.uk
Changing Your Preferences
Where a cookie settings control is available, use it to review your choices or withdraw consent. Withdrawal applies to future processing and does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
Deleting cookies through your browser does not necessarily communicate withdrawal of consent or erase information already held by a provider.
Your choices may be specific to your browser or device. You may need to set them again after clearing website data or switching devices.
Managing Cookies in Your Browser
Most browsers allow you to view and delete cookies, restrict third-party cookies or block storage from selected websites. These options are usually found under “Privacy”, “Security” or “Site settings”.
Blocking all cookies may affect basket storage, account access and checkout. Private browsing does not prevent every form of tracking and does not necessarily hide activity from a shared device, network administrator or internet service provider.
Cookie Duration
Session cookies generally expire when your browser session ends. Persistent cookies remain until their configured expiry date or until you delete them.
The duration depends on the technology and its purpose. Cookie expiry is separate from how long a provider retains information already collected.
Third-Party Services
Where external payment, analytics, advertising or embedded services are integrated, their providers may receive information or use their own technologies.
The website’s cookie details must identify the actual providers, purposes and durations. Relevant privacy information should explain what information is disclosed, any international transfers and the safeguards that apply.
Optional third-party tracking must not be treated as necessary simply because an external service is embedded.
Policy Updates
This policy may be updated when website technologies, processing activities or legal requirements change. Where a new purpose requires fresh consent, an earlier choice does not automatically authorise that use.
Contactez-nous
For questions about cookies or your privacy preferences, use the contact options published on bdsmsextoy.co.uk.
Before publication, add a verified cookie inventory, including names, providers, purposes and durations. Confirm that the preference controls described are available and assess whether any tracking reveals or infers sensitive information.
