COOKIES POLICY
Effective date: 19 August 2025
Last updated: 19 August 2025
What are cookies?
Cookies are small files placed on your device that help a site function and improve your experience. Some are essential; others (analytics/marketing) are optional and require your consent under POPIA-aligned best practice.
​
How we use cookies
-
Essential cookies – required for the site, security, load balancing, and remembering things like your cart.
-
Analytics cookies – help us understand site usage (e.g., pages visited, device types) to improve performance.
-
[Marketing/ads cookies – optional] – if enabled later, these personalise ads across sites; disabled by default unless you consent.
We’ll ask for your consent for non-essential cookies via our banner and allow you to change your preferences at any time.
​
Cookies set by Wix (examples)
Because we use Wix, some cookies come from Wix’s platform. Typical examples include: XSRF-TOKEN (security), hs (security), svSession (session identification), SSR-caching (rendering/performance), TS* (attack detection), bSession (system effectiveness), fedops.logger.sessionId (error/resilience). See Wix’s help article for details.
The exact list can vary based on your site features (members area, apps, checkout). Your banner/policy will reflect the live set.
​
Your choices
-
Consent banner: Accept all, reject non-essential, or set granular preferences. You can later revisit “Cookie Settings” in our footer to change choices or withdraw consent.
-
Browser controls: You can block or delete cookies via your browser. Blocking essential cookies may break parts of the site.
​
Cookie durations
-
Session cookies expire when you close your browser.
-
Persistent cookies last longer (e.g., months), depending on their purpose. Example: svSession can persist for months to recognise returning visitors.
​
Legal basis & POPIA note
We rely on consent for analytics/marketing cookies and on legitimate interests for strictly necessary cookies required to deliver our site/services, consistent with POPIA’s lawful processing grounds.
​
Third-party cookies
If we add external services (e.g., Google Analytics, embedded videos, payment widgets), they may set their own cookies. We’ll list them in the banner and this policy when enabled.
​
Updates
We may update this Cookie Policy and the banner configuration; changes take effect when posted (see “Last updated” date above).
