This cookie notice has been prepared to provide our website visitors with information about the technologies used on our website and how our visitors can make informed choices about managing cookies and online tracking technologies.
In some cases, cookies may collect personal information, or information that becomes personal information when combined with other data. Where this occurs, our Privacy Policy applies in addition to this policy.
You can change which cookies are used at any time via the Manage Cookie Preferences pop-up (accessible at any time from the website footer).
1. What is a cookie and similar online tracking technologies?
We and our third-party partners and service providers (such as advertising networks, analytics providers, retargeting, and social media platforms) use cookies and other similar online tracking technologies (such as pixels or web beacons) to gather information when you interact with our website or email communications.
Cookies are small data files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies set by us are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than us are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., advertising, interactive content, and analytics). The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your device both when it visits our website and when it visits certain other websites.
The full list of cookies, their providers, and storage periods is available via the Manage Cookie Preferences pop-up (accessible at any time from the website footer).
2. Why do we use cookies on our website?
Cookies and similar technologies serve a range of purposes:
- They help us maintain the security of our website and your account, prevent crashes, fix bugs, save your preferences, and support basic site functions.
- They are also used for performance and analytics, to measure how our website is used, and to improve its functionality.
- They support our advertising and marketing activities, for example, to deliver personalized or interest-based content and advertisements on our website, in emails, on social media, and across other online platforms; to measure and improve the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns; and to help us better understand audience engagement with our brand and products.
For strictly necessary cookies, user consent is not required. These cookies are essential to provide the services you have requested (such as secure login, shopping cart, and checkout functionality). For all other types of cookies (such as functional, performance, or marketing cookies), we will seek your consent or provide you with the ability to opt out, depending on the requirements of the laws in your region.
3. What types of cookies are there?
Cookies are classified differently depending on their purpose. We use the following cookies on our website:

- Functional Cookies: These cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies, then some or all of the services may not function properly.
- Performance Cookies: These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website to help us measure performance, improve functionality, and enhance your experience of our website.
- Marketing Cookies: These cookies are used by marketing tools to deliver relevant advertising on our website, third-party platforms, and social media.

Such information sharing may be deemed as a "sale" or “share” under applicable privacy laws, even if we do not receive any monetary payment. You can also turn these cookies off via the Manage Cookie Preferences link on our website.
4. How long are cookies stored?
Retention periods vary depending on your browser or device. Temporary cookies, called session cookies, are stored on your device until you close your browser. Persistent cookies stay on your device until they expire or you delete them.
The full list of cookies, their providers, and storage periods is available via the Manage Cookie Preferences pop-up (accessible at any time from the website footer).
