This Cookie Policy explains how Clavis & Claustra uses cookies and similar technologies on our website.

This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect, use and protect personal information.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites work properly, remember your preferences, improve performance, understand how visitors use the site, and support features such as shopping baskets, checkout and account login.

Similar technologies, such as pixels, tags and local storage, may also be used for similar purposes.

How we use cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies to:

  • make the website work properly

  • enable basket, checkout, payment, security and account features

  • remember your cookie choices and preferences

  • understand how visitors use the website

  • improve the performance and usability of the website

  • support analytics, measurement and advertising where enabled and where you have given consent

Types of cookies we use

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are needed for the website to work and cannot usually be switched off through our cookie controls.

They may be used for:

  • basket and checkout functionality

  • payment processing

  • account login

  • website security

  • fraud prevention

  • remembering your privacy and cookie preferences

Without these cookies, parts of the website may not work properly.

Analytics and performance cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors use the website, such as which pages are visited, how users move around the site, and whether there are any errors or performance issues.

This information helps us improve the website and shopping experience.

Analytics and performance cookies are only used where permitted and subject to your cookie choices.

Marketing and advertising cookies

Marketing and advertising cookies may be used to measure advertising performance, understand the effectiveness of campaigns, or show relevant advertising through third-party platforms.

These cookies may be set by us or by third-party services, such as Google, where those services are enabled.

Marketing and advertising cookies are only used where permitted and subject to your cookie choices.

Preference cookies

Preference cookies may be used to remember choices you make on the website, such as cookie settings or other site preferences.

Shopify cookies

Our online store is powered by Shopify. Shopify uses cookies and similar technologies to provide the website and checkout functionality, keep the store secure, support payments, remember basket contents, process orders, and help us operate the store.

Some Shopify cookies are strictly necessary for the website and checkout to work. Other Shopify-related cookies may support analytics, performance, advertising or service improvement, depending on the services enabled and your cookie choices.

Google and YouTube

We use Shopify’s Google & YouTube integration where enabled for analytics, measurement or advertising purposes.

Google-related cookies or similar technologies may be used to help measure website activity, understand how visitors interact with the store, or support advertising features.

These cookies are only used where permitted and subject to your cookie choices.

Cookie consent

When you visit our website, you may be shown a cookie banner. This allows you to accept, reject or manage non-essential cookies.
