Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Like most online stores, Joll Christmas uses cookies to make the Site work, to understand how it is used and to show relevant offers. This notice lists the cookies we set, what each one does, and how to change your preferences at any time.

1. Types of Cookies on This Site

We group our cookies into four categories:

  • Essential (always on): Shopify cookies that run the cart, checkout, login and security, such as cart, _shopify_s, _shopify_y, _secure_session_id, secure_customer_sig.
  • Functional: remember your currency, language and dismissed banners (localization, keep_alive).
  • Performance and analytics: Shopify analytics and Google Analytics cookies (_shopify_sa_p, _landing_page, _ga, _gid) that show us which pages work and which do not, in aggregated form.
  • Marketing: pixels and cookies from Meta and Google (_fbp, _gcl_au) that measure our ads and personalise the ones you see elsewhere; you can opt out at any time.

2. Cookies and Similar Technologies

A cookie is a small file that a website stores in your browser so it can recognise you on later pages or visits. Session cookies disappear when you close the browser; persistent cookies remain until they expire or you delete them. Cookies set by our own domain are first-party; those set by our partners (for example Google or Meta) are third-party. Pixels, tags and local storage work in a similar way and are covered here too.

3. Third Parties That Set Cookies

Cookies from partners appear on our Site for specific jobs: Shopify runs the store and its built-in analytics; Shopify Payments (powered by Stripe) secures payments; Google and Meta measure and deliver advertising; and our review, tracking and email apps support customer service. These companies have their own privacy policies governing what they do with the data; our agreements limit their use to the purposes listed here.

4. Retention

Most of our cookies are short-lived — the cart and session cookies expire when your browsing session ends or after a few hours. Analytics and advertising cookies persist for up to 13 months so that returning visits can be measured; they are not extended beyond that without a new visit. All cookies can be removed at any time from your browser.

5. How to Control Cookies

You can also control cookies through your browser: block or delete them in Chrome, Safari, Firefox or Edge under privacy settings (blocking essential cookies will prevent checkout from working). To opt out of targeted advertising cookies specifically, use the controls on the Cookie preferences page, enable the Global Privacy Control signal in your browser, which we honor, or use the industry opt-out tools at optout.aboutads.info and youronlinechoices.eu. Opting out of Google Analytics is possible with Google's browser add-on.

6. Contact

Our Privacy Policy explains the wider picture of how Joll Christmas processes data. If you have a question about cookies, email help@jollchristmas.com. This notice is updated whenever our cookies change.
