Cookie Policy

Table of contents
01What cookies are
Small files stored in your browser that let a site remember information between visits or requests.
02How we use them
We use two categories only: Essential — required for the site, the shopping cart, your language choice and your cookie-consent choice to work; these are always on and cannot be switched off, since the site can't function without them. Analytics — Google Analytics 4, used to understand which pages are useful, in aggregate; loaded only after you explicitly accept it, never before.
03The cookie table
See the table below.
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Category |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2sd_consent | Stores your cookie-consent choice | 6 months | Essential |
| 2sd:cart:v1 (local storage, not a cookie) | Keeps your cart contents between visits | Until cleared | Essential |
| _ga | Google Analytics 4 — distinguishes users | 13 months | Analytics |
| _ga_<container-id> | Google Analytics 4 — persists session state | 13 months | Analytics |
04Your choice
On your first visit, a banner lets you Accept all, Reject all, or open Preferences to choose by category — with equal prominence given to accepting and rejecting. Nothing non-essential loads until you choose. You can change your mind at any time via "Cookie preferences" in the footer; your choice is stored for 6 months.
05Third parties
Google Analytics 4 is operated by Google Ireland Limited. See Google's own privacy documentation for how it processes analytics data.
