Cookie Policy
KARTEL uses only the cookies it needs to work. No analytics. No advertising.
Updated
The cookies we use
These are strictly necessary: without them the cart and checkout cannot work, so the law does not require a consent banner for them.
| Name | Purpose | Lasts |
|---|---|---|
| wp_woocommerce_session_* | Keeps your cart and checkout together as you move between pages | 2 days |
| woocommerce_items_in_cart | Tells the site there is something in your cart | Until you close the browser |
| woocommerce_cart_hash | Notices when your cart changes, so it stays up to date | Until you close the browser |
| wordpress_logged_in_*, wordpress_sec_* | Keep you signed in, only if you have an account and sign in | Until you close the browser, or 14 days with "Remember me" |
| wordpress_test_cookie | Checks that your browser accepts cookies, on the sign-in page only | Until you close the browser |
| wp-resetpass-* | Holds the key from your password-reset email while you choose a new password | Until you close the browser |
The intro
The first time you open the homepage, a short film plays. One cookie remembers that it has played, so it does not play again. It holds nothing about you.
| Name | Purpose | Lasts |
|---|---|---|
| kartel_intro | Remembers that the intro film has played | 1 year |
Stored in your browser
The site also remembers, in your browser's session storage, whether you chose the grid or the sphere (only the word "grid" or "sphere"), and that the loading screen has already played in this visit, so later pages open faster. Both are cleared when you close the tab.
What we do not use
No analytics, no advertising, no tracking pixels, no social media trackers. If we ever add something that is not strictly necessary, we will ask for your consent first and list it here.
How to control cookies
You can block or delete cookies in your browser's settings. If you block the ones above, the cart and checkout will stop working.
Changes to this policy
When the cookies change, this list and the date at the top change with them.
