Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your web browser when you visit a website. They let the site remember your preferences and keep core functions working. They are not programs and cannot install malware or access your files.

This website uses only essential cookies — ones needed for the site to function:

• Cookie preference (e.g. ka_cookie_choice) — remembers whether you have accepted or rejected non-essential cookies so we don't show the consent banner again. Stored in your browser's local storage, not as a tracking cookie.
• Shopping cart — keeps the items in your cart while you browse the shop (a session cookie, which disappears when you close your browser, and/or a short-lived local storage entry).
• Security and load-balancing — small session identifiers needed to keep the site secure and responsive.

We do not use analytics cookies, advertising cookies, social media cookies, or any third-party tracking on this site. Your browsing here is not shared with advertisers.

The contact page includes a map embed from Google Maps. When you visit the page, Google may set its own cookies to render the map, governed by Google's privacy policy rather than ours. The map shows our site at 16 North Street, Middlesbrough.

Because we use only essential cookies, no choice is required to use the site. However, you can control cookies in your browser settings at any time — for example to block all cookies or delete existing ones:

• Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data.
• Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions.
• Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data.
• Safari: Preferences → Privacy.

Blocking cookies may affect site functionality (for example, the cart or the one-time consent banner). Your browser's help pages explain the options in detail.

If we ever introduce non-essential cookies, we will update this policy, explain what they do, and ask for your consent before they are set. This policy was last updated on 15 August 2026.
