Cookie Policy

This policy explains what cookies and similar technologies Ameer of Tonk uses, what each one does, and how you can control them. It sits alongside our Privacy Policy, which covers personal data more broadly.

What cookies are

A cookie is a small text file a website asks your browser to store. Websites also use related technologies — such as local storage — that keep information in your browser in much the same way. Where this policy says “cookies”, it means both.

What we use

We do not use advertising cookies, and we do not track you across other websites. Everything we set falls into one of two groups.

Strictly necessary

These are required for the site to work. They cannot be switched off from here.

  • AmeerCms.Auth — a cookie that keeps a staff member signed in to the content management system. It is only ever set after someone signs in at /admin, it expires with the session, and it is never set for ordinary visitors to the shop.
  • aot.cookie-consent.v1 — local storage, remembering that you have seen the cookie notice so it is not shown on every page.

Functional

These remember choices you make, so the site behaves the way you left it. They stay in your browser and are not sent to us.

  • aot.cart.v1 — local storage, holding the items in your bag so they survive a page refresh.
  • aot.currency.v1 — local storage, remembering the currency you chose to view prices in.

Third parties

  • PayPal — when you reach the checkout and online payment is enabled, PayPal’s own scripts load and may set cookies and storage of their own to process the payment and prevent fraud. These are governed by PayPal’s privacy notice, not ours.
  • Google Fonts — our typefaces are served by Google. Google does not set cookies for this, but your browser does request the files, which discloses your IP address to Google.

Managing cookies

You can delete or block cookies and clear local storage through your browser’s settings; every major browser offers this under privacy or site data. Doing so is safe, but note that the shop will forget your bag and your currency choice, and staff will be signed out of the content management system.

Changes to this policy

If we add or remove anything that stores information in your browser, we will update this page. Significant changes will be reflected in the notice shown on the site.
