What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device. Websites can also use similar technologies, such as your browser's local storage, to remember information between visits.
How this website uses them
This website does not use advertising or analytics cookies. We only store information in your browser that is strictly necessary for features you ask for:
- Basket: a reference to your basket, which is held securely by our ecommerce service provider, so its contents are still there when you return.
- My Account sign-in: your sign-in session while you are signed in to My Account, and a short-lived security value used only while you sign in.
- Staff sign-in: if you are a member of Compuzone staff, your staff sign-in session.
- Chat with Us (Cody): if you send a message in the chat, a random reference to your conversation, so you can carry on your chat if you refresh the page. It can only be used to continue your chat for 24 hours after your last message, and it is removed when you start a new chat. It is used only for the chat, never for advertising, profiling or analytics.
Because these are strictly necessary for the service you have requested, we do not ask for consent before using them. You can clear them at any time through your browser settings, although your basket and sign-in will then be reset.
Secure Checkout and Customer Accounts
We use secure third-party ecommerce services to process orders, manage customer accounts and protect transactions.
These services may use essential cookies to maintain secure sessions, remember checkout information and enable customers to sign in and access their orders.
Essential cookies are necessary for these services to function and do not require separate consent.
For further information about how your personal information is handled and shared with our service providers, please see our Privacy Policy.
Third-party content
Our website uses third-party services to deliver fonts, product images and other website content. These services receive technical information, such as your IP address, so they can deliver the content, but our website does not use them to set cookies.
Changes
If we introduce analytics or marketing cookies in the future, we will ask for your consent first and update this policy.
