The short version
Open any page on this website for the first time and it sets no cookies at all. Not one. The only thing it writes into your browser is a note from WordPress about whether your browser can draw emoji, which is not a cookie and is explained below.
There is no Google Analytics here, no Google Tag Manager, no Meta pixel, no advertising tag, no heatmap recorder and no third-party script of any kind. Nothing on this site is watching where you go or building a profile of you, and nothing here is shared with an advertising network.
Cookies appear only when you use the quote list, and then only the ones that make the quote list work. They are listed below by name.
What is set, and when
Three cookies are set by WooCommerce, the software that runs the catalogue, at the moment you add your first product to a quote list. A fourth is set only if you dismiss the cookie notice at the bottom of the screen.
| Cookie | What it does | When it is set | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|---|
woocommerce_items_in_cart | Records that your quote list is not empty, so the count in the header is right without rebuilding the list on every page. | When you add your first product to a quote list. | Until you close your browser. |
woocommerce_cart_hash | A short code that changes whenever your quote list changes, so the site knows when it has to read the list again rather than reuse what it has. | When you add your first product to a quote list. | Until you close your browser. |
wp_woocommerce_session_... | Links your browser to the quote list held on our server. Without it the list would empty every time you moved to another page. The name ends in a long code that identifies this website, not you. | When you add your first product to a quote list. | 48 hours. |
toti_cookie_notice | Records that you have seen and dismissed the cookie notice, so it does not appear again on every page. It holds nothing but the fact that you dismissed it. | Only if you dismiss the notice at the bottom of the screen. | One year. |
Things kept in your browser that are not cookies
A cookie is sent back to our server with every request. These are not: they are written into your browser’s own storage and stay there. Being complete matters more than being brief on a page like this, so here they are.
The first three are WooCommerce’s, and all three exist so that the quote list count in the header can be right without asking our server again on every page. They appear once you have added something to a quote list.
- wc_cart_hash_… A short code that changes when your quote list changes. It is written to both local storage and session storage. The local storage copy stays until you clear your site data; the session storage copy goes when you close the tab.
- wc_fragments_… The bit of page that shows your quote list count, saved so it can be drawn again immediately. Session storage, so it goes when you close the tab.
- wc_cart_created The time your quote list was started, which is how WooCommerce knows when the saved copy above is too old to trust. Session storage.
- wpEmojiSettingsSupports WordPress’s note of whether your browser can draw emoji, so the check is not repeated on every page. Session storage. This one appears on every page, whether or not you use the quote list.
What this website deliberately does not set
One thing was switched off on purpose, and saying so is more useful to you than a list of things we never installed.
WooCommerce ships with a feature called order attribution. It loads a script that writes seven cookies, all beginning sbjs_, on the first page anybody opens, before they have done anything. Those cookies record how a visitor arrived: the search engine, the campaign, the referring site, the first and most recent visit. It exists so that a shop can tell which advertising produced which order.
This website never takes an order, so there is nothing for it to attribute. It was collecting marketing data that nobody would ever read, and it was doing it before a visitor had chosen anything. It has been turned off, and those seven cookies are not set here.
Why there is no accept or reject banner
Because there is nothing on this site to reject, and a banner offering you a choice that does not exist is worse than no banner at all. It teaches people that the buttons are decoration.
Every cookie above is necessary for a part of the site you chose to use. Turn them off and the quote list stops working; there is no analytics to decline and no advertising to opt out of. So this site shows a short notice the first time you visit, telling you plainly what happens and pointing you here. Dismissing it is an acknowledgement, not consent to be tracked, because there is no tracking to consent to.
If analytics or advertising are ever added to this website, that changes. This page and that notice would both have to be rewritten first, and you would have to be given a real choice, with nothing non-essential loading until you made it.
Turning cookies off yourself
Every browser lets you block or delete cookies, usually under Settings, then Privacy. Your browser’s own help page will be more accurate than anything we could write here, because the menus move.
Be aware of what blocking them costs on this site: the quote list is the only thing that uses them, so blocking them means your quote list empties every time you open another page. You can still browse the whole catalogue, and you can still email us.
How we checked this
This list was not copied from a template. The site was loaded with an empty cookie store and every cookie that came back was recorded. Then a real browser was opened on the same pages and its cookie, local storage and session storage were read, because a script can write a cookie that never appears in a server response. Then a product was added to a quote list and the whole check was repeated. That is where the names above come from, and it is why there are so few of them.
The Privacy Policy covers everything else this website records, including what the server logs and what happens to a quote request.
