Cookie Policy August 2023
Some cookies collect information about browsing and
purchasing behaviour when you access our websites via the same computer or
device. This includes information about pages viewed, products purchased and
your journey around a website. All data passed by cookies is anonymous. While
they won't store details like your name, address, telephone number, or payment
information, they might save a unique customer reference number associated with
your profile. For more detailed information about how cookies work, please

HOW ARE COOKIES MANAGED?
The cookies stored on your computer or other device when you access our
websites are designed by:
Absolute Worldie Ltd or on our behalf, and are necessary to enable
you to make purchases on our websites;
third parties who participate with us in marketing programmes; and
third parties who publish web banner advertisements for us.
WHAT ARE COOKIES USED FOR?
Cookies are used with our marketing partners to present you with appropriate
offers and advertising as you browse other sites on the internet, based on your
browsing activity while on our site. Cookies also allow us to work alongside
our web analytics partner, Google Analytics, to see how you like to use our
website, which pages or special functions you prefer and help us to make them
better. We may match the data we capture through cookies with personal data
that we already hold about you to better understand you. This helps us to
continually improve the relevance of our promotional communications, your
shopping experience and our products and services. The main purposes for which
cookies are used are:
For functional purposes essential to effective operation of our
websites, particularly in relation to online transactions, site navigation
and preferences.
For marketing and advertising, particularly web banner advertisements
and targeted updates through digital channels and social media.
To enable us to collect information about your browsing and
shopping behaviour, helping us to improve your shopping experience and to
monitor performance.
To enable us to meet our contractual obligations to make payments
to third parties when a product is purchased by someone who has visited
our website from a site operated by those parties.
MARKETING COOKIES
Absolute Worldie Ltd works with partners who serve advertisements or present
online offers on our behalf. Most of these marketing partners use both session
and persistent cookies. These cookies are used to deliver adverts more relevant
to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you
see an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of the
advertising campaign. All data collected by third party cookies is anonymous
and will never contain your name, address, telephone number, email address or
payment details.
WHAT TYPE OF COOKIES DO WE USE?
There are two types of cookie that may be used during your visit to our site:
Session cookies
Session cookies are deleted after each visit to our
site. For example, when you are browsing our site, it will remember you for the
duration of your visit, but the cookie will be removed from your computer as
soon as you close down your internet browser. Session cookies allow you to add
an item to the basket and then move through the checkout. Disallowing these
cookies via your web browser will mean you are unable to place an order on this
site.
Persistent cookies
Persistent cookies remember you for a set period of
time, allowing wishlist and/or previously viewed products to be displayed the
next time you visit our site and whether you were logged ino your account.
TURNING OFF AND DELETING COOKIES
Most web browsers will provide the option to turn off or disallow cookies. How
you do this depends on the web browser you are using. Instructions for
disabling cookies can usually be found in the browser's 'Help' menu. Note that
in common with most other transactional websites, if you only disable third
party cookies, you will not be prevented from making purchases on our websites
but refusing the cookies we have used via your web browser will mean that you
are unable to make a transactional purchase on our website. You may also find
that the functionality of many other websites and services will be affected.
Cookies can be deleted using your web browser. However, unless they are
disallowed they will be reapplied the next time you visit a website.
If you want to disable cookies you need to change
your website browser settings to reject cookies. How you can do this will
depend on the browser you use. For more specific instructions, or if you're
using a different browser, consult the browser's 'Help' menu or official
website (these may vary depending on operating system and browser version).
Since technology and policies change, mention that this cookie policy might be
updated from time to time and that users should check back regularly for any
changes.
