We use cookies sparingly — only what is necessary to operate the site and understand how it is used. We do not use advertising cookies or sell cookie data to third parties.
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website. They allow the site to remember information about your visit — such as your preferred language or whether you have accepted a consent notice — so you don't have to re-enter it on every page.
We also use similar technologies such as local storage and session storage for the same purposes.
2. Cookies We Use
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are required for the site to function. They cannot be disabled.
- Session cookie — maintains your form state as you move through the checkout flow. Expires when you close your browser.
- CSRF token — protects form submissions from cross-site request forgery attacks. Expires with your session.
- Stripe cookies — set by Stripe during payment processing to prevent fraud and ensure secure transactions. Governed by Stripe's Privacy Policy.
Analytics cookies
We use privacy-respecting, cookieless analytics to understand how visitors use the site. Where a cookie is set, it is used only to distinguish unique visits — no personal profile is built.
- Analytics identifier — a randomly generated, non-personal ID used to count unique page views. No cross-site tracking. Expires after 12 months.
Preference cookies
- Cookie consent record — stores your cookie consent choice so we don't ask again. Expires after 12 months.
3. Cookies We Do Not Use
We do not use:
- Advertising or retargeting cookies (Google Ads, Meta Pixel, etc.)
- Social media tracking pixels
- Third-party behavioral profiling cookies
- Fingerprinting or device-identification scripts beyond what Stripe requires for fraud prevention
4. Third-Party Cookies
The only third-party cookies on this site are set by Stripe during the payment step. You can review Stripe's cookie practices in their Privacy Policy.
5. Managing Cookies
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:
- View and delete existing cookies
- Block cookies from specific sites
- Block all third-party cookies
- Clear all cookies when you close the browser
Note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent the checkout flow from working correctly.

6. Do Not Track
Some browsers send a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. We honor DNT signals by disabling our analytics cookie when one is detected. Strictly necessary cookies (session, CSRF, Stripe) are unaffected.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy as our practices change or as required by law. Material changes will be noted with a revised "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
