In the Use of Cookies section, describe how your store uses cookies, such as for functionality, analytics, performance, or advertising. You can keep the default text if it is suitable, or update it for accuracy. Once done, use the Preview cookie policy to review the formatting and tone before proceeding.

In the Types of Cookies section, you will see a list of cookies from your most recent website scan. If needed, you can refresh the list by clicking Scan again to capture any new cookies. The cookies are organised into categories such as Necessary, Functional, Analytics, Performance and Advertisement. Review each entry carefully to verify the cookie name, duration, and purpose for accuracy.
