What are Cookies?

Cookies are small files which are stored on a user's computer. They are designed to hold a modest amount of data specific to a particular client and website, and can be accessed either by the web server or the client computer. This allows the server to deliver a page tailored to a particular user, or the page itself can contain some script which is aware of the data in the cookie and so is able to carry information from one visit to the website (or related site) to the next.

Our Shopping Cart software by default attaches one cookie called "zenid" to the users computer. This is classed as an "essential cookie" and many aspects of our site will not function correctly without it.

As we use Google Analytics which is a "non-essential cookie", as of 26th May 2011 we are bound by UK & EU Laws to offer the consumer a choice of whether they will accept the cookie or not. Google Analytics is a harmless cookie that allows us to improve our stock and pricing structure.

Google Analytics is used in thousands of Internet Retail stores through out the UK so it will become routine that consumers will be asked  to accept cookies whenever they make purchases on-line.

We WILL NOT use information from Google in any abusive way. We WILL NOT contact you with special offers, information or any other media unless you have subscribed to our newsletter.

If you are concerned about cookies being stored on your computer, we advise adjusting your privacy settings to delete all third-party cookies upon closing your browser.

Below is a table showing all cookies that our site stores on your browser.

Note: We have given a maximum duration that a cookie can reside on your computer. You can of course delete all cookies upon exiting your browser.

If you use Firefox as your favourite browser, we recommend using an add-on called "Self-Destructing Cookies" It clears your cookies directly after leaving any web site. It can of cause be set to leave favourite website cookies alone if desired.
