How we use cookies on inkitabstracts.co.uk
At inkitabstracts, we want to be upfront about how our website works. Like most sites, we use cookies — small text files stored on your device — to keep things running smoothly, understand how people find us, and make your experience as good as possible. This policy explains what we use, why we use it, and how you can stay in control.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are tiny files placed on your browser or device when you visit a website. They help the site remember things like what's in your cart, whether you've been here before, and which pages were most useful. Some cookies last only for your visit (session cookies); others stay until you delete them or they expire (persistent cookies).
2. Who We Are
This policy relates to the website inkitabstracts.co.uk, operated by inkitabstracts. If you have any questions about how we handle your data, please get in touch at support@inkitabstracts.co.uk.
3. The Cookies We Use
We've grouped our cookies into four categories. You can manage your preferences for non-essential cookies at any time — see Section 5.
Essential Cookies
These are necessary for the website to function. Without them, things like your shopping cart and secure checkout won't work. You cannot opt out of essential cookies, as the site simply won't work properly without them.
Analytics Cookies
These help us understand how visitors are finding and using our site — which pages are most popular, where people come from, and where we can improve. The data is aggregated and anonymous; we can't use it to identify you personally.
Functional Cookies
These cookies enable enhanced features and personalisation — things like remembering your preferences or enabling certain interactive elements built with Elementor. Disabling them may mean some features won't work as expected.
Marketing Cookies
If we run any paid advertising or link our site to social media platforms, marketing cookies may be set by those third-party services. We will update this section if and when that changes, and we'll always ask for your consent before those cookies are placed.
4. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are set by third-party services that appear on our site — for example Google Analytics. These third parties have their own privacy policies, which we encourage you to read:
We don't have direct control over cookies set by third parties, but we only work with providers we trust.
5. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You're in control. When you first visit our site, our cookie banner lets you accept or decline non-essential cookies. You can change your mind at any time by clicking the Cookie Preferences link in our footer.
You can also manage cookies directly through your browser settings. Here are links to guidance for the most common browsers:
Google Chrome · Mozilla Firefox · Safari · Microsoft Edge
Please note that blocking all cookies may affect how parts of the site work, including your shopping cart and checkout.
6. Your Rights Under UK GDPR
If you're based in the UK or EU, you have rights regarding your personal data, including the right to access, correct, or request deletion of data we hold about you. Cookie data that identifies you personally falls under these rights.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at support@inkitabstracts.co.uk. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time — for example if we add new features, use new third-party services, or if the law changes. We'll always update the Last updated date at the top so you know when something has changed.
8. Contact Us
If you have any questions about cookies or this policy, we're happy to help. Drop us a line at support@inkitabstracts.co.uk and we'll get back to you as soon as we can.
