Cookie Policy

The cookies and similar technologies this site sets, and how to refuse them.

Last updated

This page lists what eyevora.com stores in your browser and why. We keep the list short on purpose: the fewer things we set, the less there is to explain and the less there is to go wrong.

1. What this page covers

Cookies are small files a website asks your browser to keep. This page also covers two related technologies we use, because pretending they are different from cookies would be a technicality rather than an explanation:

  • Local storage — the same idea as a cookie, but the data stays in your browser and is not sent with every request. We use it for your basket.
  • Pixels and scripts — small pieces of code that report that a page was viewed.

Throughout this page, “cookie” means all three unless we say otherwise.

2. The categories we use

Strictly necessary — always on

Without these the site does not work: you could not stay signed in, keep a basket between pages, or check out. They are not used to track you across other websites, and they cannot be switched off from within the site.

Analytics — only with your consent

These tell us which pages are used, where people give up, and what is slow or broken. They are how a two-person team finds out that a checkout step is failing on a particular phone. We do not use them to build an advertising profile of you.

Advertising — we do not use these

Eyevora sets no third-party advertising or retargeting cookies. If that changes, this page will change first and we will ask for your consent before setting any.

Payment providers set their own cookies when you are redirected to them to pay. Those are governed by their privacy notices, not this one — we cannot read them and they are outside our control.

4. Refusing and removing cookies

Analytics cookies are set only where you have consented to them, and you can withdraw that consent at any time — by email to privacy@eyevora.com, or through your browser as described below. Declining costs you nothing: the store works identically either way.

You can also control cookies in your browser: every major browser lets you block them, delete existing ones, or clear them on exit. The help pages for Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Edge each explain how for that browser.

Blocking everything has a cost

If you block strictly necessary cookies in your browser, you will not be able to sign in or complete an order. That is a consequence of how sessions work on the web, not a design choice on our part.

Some browsers send a “Do Not Track” or Global Privacy Control signal. Where we receive one, we treat it as a refusal of analytics cookies.

5. Changes to this policy

We update this page whenever what we set changes. The date at the top tells you when it last did. For how the resulting data is handled once collected, see the Privacy Policy; for anything unclear, email privacy@eyevora.com.
