What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, or tablet when you visit a website. They help the website remember your actions, device details, and preferences over a period of time so you don’t have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another.
How We Use Cookies
We use cookies to ensure our website functions safely, to analyze our traffic, and—most importantly—to power our e-commerce platform.

These cookies do not track personal identifying information for marketing purposes and cannot be turned off because our online store cannot function without them.
Our website uses WooCommerce. WooCommerce is very privacy-friendly by default—it does not track personal user data. Instead, it uses these cookies strictly to make your online store, shopping cart, and checkout system function properly.
