Cookies and site preferences

Cookies and similar technologies help the storefront remember cart activity, keep checkout working, support account sessions, measure site performance and protect the store from misuse. This page explains the common cookie categories used by an ecommerce site and how customers can manage browser settings.

Essential cookies

Essential cookies support core shopping functions such as cart contents, checkout steps, account login, payment security, fraud prevention and session continuity. Blocking essential cookies may prevent products from staying in the cart or stop checkout from working correctly.

Preference cookies

Preference cookies may remember display settings, recently viewed products, selected region, language choices or other shopping preferences. These cookies make repeated visits smoother and reduce the need to enter the same choices again.

Analytics cookies

Analytics cookies help the merchant understand how customers use the site, which product pages receive attention, where technical issues occur and which service pages customers visit most often. Analytics data should be reviewed in an aggregated way to improve product discovery and customer support.

Security and fraud prevention

Security tools may use cookies or device signals to detect suspicious checkout attempts, protect payment processing and reduce automated abuse. These signals can help the store review risky transactions and protect customers from unauthorized activity.
