Cookie Policy
Arborforge Studios uses cookies and similar technologies to help our website work properly, remember certain preferences, understand how the site is being used and, where you have agreed to it, support analytics or marketing.
This policy explains what cookies are, why we use them and how you can control them.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small files that are stored on your device when you visit a website.
They can be used for things such as keeping you signed in, remembering what is in your basket, saving preferences and helping us understand how people use the site.
Similar technologies may also be used for some of the same purposes.
Essential Cookies
Some cookies are necessary for the website to work properly.
These may be used for things such as:
- Keeping the website secure
- Allowing the shopping basket and checkout to work
- Managing customer accounts and sign-in
- Remembering important settings during your visit
- Providing digital access and other features you have requested
These cookies are used where they are necessary to provide the website or service you have asked for.
Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the Arborforge Studios website.
For example, they may tell us which pages are visited most often, how visitors move around the site and whether parts of the website are working as expected.
Where consent is required, these cookies will only be used after you have agreed to them.
Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies may be used to understand the effectiveness of advertising or to help show more relevant promotions.
If Arborforge Studios uses this type of tracking, it will only be used where permitted and where the appropriate consent has been given.
Shopify
The Arborforge Studios website and online store are hosted through Shopify.
Shopify uses cookies and similar technologies to provide functions such as customer accounts, checkout, security, analytics and other ecommerce services.
Some of these cookies are necessary for the store to operate, while others may depend on the privacy choices you make.
Third-Party Services
Some services used on the Arborforge Studios website may place their own cookies or use similar technologies.
This could include services used for:
- Payments
- Analytics
- Advertising
- Embedded media
- Social media features
- Website functionality
Where required, these services will only be allowed to use non-essential cookies after the appropriate consent has been given.
Managing Your Cookie Choices
When you first visit the website, you may be shown options allowing you to choose how non-essential cookies are used.
You can change your preferences later through the website’s cookie settings.
You can also control or delete cookies through your browser, although blocking certain essential cookies may prevent parts of the website from working properly.
Shopify provides built-in customer privacy controls that can allow visitors to review and change their cookie preferences.
Consent
Where consent is required, non-essential cookies should not be used until you have made a choice.
You should also be able to refuse or change your choice without having to stop using the website entirely. The ICO’s current guidance requires meaningful control over non-essential storage and access technologies.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy if the cookies or services used by Arborforge Studios change.
The latest version will always be available on this page.
