Our websites (our “websites”) are operated by Mapleton QOF LLC. The websites use cookies to distinguish you from other users and this helps us to provide you with a good experience when you browse our websites and also to improve our websites.
Cookies help us to provide you with a better customer experience when you browse our websites and allow us to improve and tailor the websites for you. We will ask for your permission to place cookies on your device, except where they are strictly necessary to provide you with a service you have requested (e.g. to ensure we can process and fulfil your orders), or in order for our websites to work properly. For example, where you give permission for optional cookies, we keep track of the domains from which people visit and we also measure visitor activity on the websites. We use the information that we collect to measure the number of visitors to the different areas of our websites to improve website functionality.
This policy explains what cookies are, how we use them and how you can switch them off.
What is a Cookie?
Cookies are small files which are placed on your internet browsing equipment (often known as ‘devices’, such as computers, tablets or phones) whenever you use one of our websites, use our app, open or click into one of our emails or view one of our adverts on the internet. But, I want to remind the readers that cookies do not contain your credit card number, your name, or your date of birth. Most commonly, cookies are used by us to provide information on how to improve the usability of the website, as well as the general performance of the website by analyzing your use of it. Some of these cookies are also called the ‘functional cookies’ since they enable one to use the various features on the website. Web bugs, clear GIFs, page tags and web beacons are other tracking technologies which are used to analyse how people are employing our services and for advertising.
We also use cookies in the e-mail campaigns we conduct For details on the cookies used in the e-mails, please refer to our web-based cookie use section above. These assist us in knowing whether you have opened an email and how you have engaged with it. If you do not wish to receive cookies in e-mails, you may not accept our cookies by adjusting your settings on your browser, or you can delete or block cookies using your browser settings, or you can delete the e-mail before downloading any pictures or clicking on any links.
To our Website visitors, we will request consent for the use of cookies the first time you access our Website and provide you with information on cookies. Should you further use this website and do not change your preferences with regards to cookies, it is considered that you agree our use of cookies.
Managing cookies: Enabling and Disabling
We will ask for your permission to place cookies on your device, except where they are strictly necessary for us to provide you with a service that you have requested or in order for our websites to work properly. You can provide your consent to the use of non-necessary cookies by clicking the “Accept All Cookies” button on our cookies information notice or by accessing the privacy preference centre on the website. The privacy preference centre should be accessible in the cookies information notice that appears on the website when you visit our site for the first time. It can also be accessed by clicking the “Cookies Settings” option at the bottom of the website at any time.
Within our privacy preference centre you can signify your consent to certain categories of non-necessary cookies by ticking the box on the right-hand-side of each category and clicking the “Confirm My Choices” button. You can withdraw any consent at any time to the use of cookies through the same functionality (i.e. clicking on the ticked box, which will then un-tick the box) and clicking the “Confirm My Choices” button. It may be necessary to refresh the website page for the updated settings to take effect.
You can also set your browser to delete cookies, to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when websites set or access cookies. If you delete, disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of this website may become inaccessible or not function properly.
If cookies aren’t enabled on your computer, it will mean that your shopping experience on our website will be limited to browsing and researching; you won’t be able to add products to your basket or buy them. To enable and manage cookies, you can use your browser to do this. Each browser is different, so check the ‘Help’ menu of your particular browser (or your mobile phone’s handset manual) to learn how to change your cookie preferences.
