Cookie Policy
Last updated: 5 September 20261. What Cookies Are
Cookies are small files stored on a device when a website is visited. Similar technologies may also be used to remember settings, maintain security, understand website use or support advertising.
2. How We Use Cookies
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are required for core website functions, such as security, form operation, session management, cookie preferences, and future cart or checkout functionality. These cannot normally be disabled through our consent tool where they are necessary for the requested service.
Preference Cookies
These remember choices such as language, region or display preferences.
Analytics Cookies
These help us understand how visitors use the website. Analytics cookies do not load before consent.
Advertising Cookies
These may be used to measure advertising or show relevant advertising. Advertising cookies do not load before consent.
3. Cookies Used on This Website
Cart contents, currency, language and theme preferences are stored in your browser's local storage rather than in a cookie, so they are not listed below. This table reflects cookies we are aware of based on our own technical review; it will be updated if that changes.
| Cookie | Provider | Purpose | Category | Duration | Party |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| dla_geo | DLA Stone | Marks visits from Türkiye so internal testing traffic is excluded from analytics, ads and session-replay loading | Strictly Necessary | Session | First-party |
| dla_checkout_access | DLA Stone | Lets the browser that started a checkout securely poll its own payment status | Strictly Necessary | 24 hours | First-party |
| _ga | Google Analytics | Distinguishes visitors | Analytics | 2 years | Third-party |
| _ga_* | Google Analytics (GA4) | Persists session state | Analytics | 2 years | Third-party |
| _clck | Microsoft Clarity | Persists a visitor id across visits for session recording and heatmaps | Analytics | 1 year | Third-party |
| _clsk | Microsoft Clarity | Links multiple page views in one session for session recording | Analytics | 1 day | Third-party |
With Marketing consent, Google Ads and Meta Pixel may use advertising cookies for measurement and personalisation. Which cookies are present depends on your preferences and the services loaded during your visit.
If you complete a purchase, we also report it directly to Meta from our server (independent of any cookie, using hashed contact details) only when your Marketing consent was granted at checkout. Without that consent, no purchase data is sent to Meta.
4. Managing Preferences
Our cookie banner provides equally accessible options: Accept All, Reject Non-Essential, and Manage Preferences.
Non-essential options are never preselected.
You can change or withdraw your choice at any time using the button below, or the "Cookie Preferences" link in the site footer.
5. Third-Party Services
Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity may place cookies once you accept the Analytics category. Clarity records session replays and heatmaps to help us understand on-site behaviour; it automatically masks input fields, so it does not capture what visitors type. See the Microsoft Privacy Statement for details on how Microsoft collects and uses this data.
Google Ads and Meta Pixel use the Marketing category. Vercel provides website usage and performance measurement.
6. Consent Records
Where required, DLA Stone records:
- Consent choice
- Date and time
- Consent-policy version
This record is currently stored in your browser's local storage on this device, not on our servers.
7. Updates
We may update this policy when cookies or service providers change. The latest revision date will be displayed above.
