Cookie Name & Purpose

We use seller’s videos to show some the products in action and the seller may set cookies on your browser in order to display the video and monitor non-attributable statistical information. Information on YouTube's privacy policy can be found here https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en&gl=uk
Facebook
Facebook uses cookies and receives information when you visit those sites and apps, including device information and information about your activity, without any further action from you. This occurs whether or not you have a Facebook account or are logged in.
Google Adwords
Cookies help to make advertising more effective. Without cookies, it’s harder for an advertiser to reach its audience, or to know how many ads were shown and how many clicks they received. Many websites, such as news sites and blogs, partner with Google to show ads to their visitors. Working with our partners, we may use cookies for a number of purposes, such as to stop you from seeing the same ad over and over again, to detect and stop click fraud and to show ads that are likely to be more relevant (such as ads based on websites that you have visited). We store a record of the ads that we serve in our logs. These server logs typically include your web request, IP address, browser type, browser language, the date and time of your request, and one or more cookies that may uniquely identify your browser. We store this data for a number of reasons, the most important of which are to improve our services and to maintain the security of our systems. We anonymise this log data by removing part of the IP address (after nine months) and cookie information (after 18 months).
8. Changes

In the event of any conflict between the current version of this Cookie Policy and any previous version(s), the provisions and in effect shall prevail unless it is expressly stated otherwise.
