This Cookie Policy explains how Furniturism (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on furniturism.co.uk. It also explains what choices you have to control cookies.

1) What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, phone, tablet) when you visit a website. They help websites work properly, remember your preferences, and provide information to improve performance and user experience.

Cookies may be:

• Session cookies (deleted when you close your browser), or
  
• Persistent cookies (remain until they expire or you delete them).

2) Why we use cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies to:

• Enable essential website features (e.g., basket/cart, checkout, security, page navigation)
  
• Remember preferences (e.g., region, language, settings where applicable)
  
• Measure and improve performance (e.g., which pages are visited, site speed, errors)
  
• Support marketing (where enabled) such as showing relevant ads and measuring campaign performance

3) Types of cookies we use

A) Strictly Necessary Cookies (Essential)

These cookies are required for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They’re usually set in response to actions you take, such as:

• Adding items to your basket
  
• Proceeding to checkout
  
• Maintaining site security and fraud prevention
  
• Remembering cookie consent preferences
  

If you block these cookies, parts of the site may not work properly.

B) Performance & Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors use our website so we can improve it. They may collect information such as:

• Pages you visit and time spent on pages
  
• How you arrived on the site (e.g., search, ads, direct)
  
• Site performance issues (e.g., errors)
  

We use this data in an aggregated way to improve user experience.

C) Functional Cookies

These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced features, for example:

• Remembering preferences (where applicable)
  
• Improving personalisation (where applicable)
  

D) Marketing / Advertising Cookies (Where Enabled)

These cookies may be used to:

• Show you relevant adverts on other websites/platforms
  
• Limit how often you see an advert

Third parties control how their cookies work and how they use data. Their use of cookies is governed by their own privacy/cookie policies.

5) Similar technologies

In addition to cookies, we may use similar technologies such as:

• Pixels / tags (small code snippets used for analytics and marketing measurement)
  
• Local storage (browser storage used to remember site settings, depending on implementation)
  

These technologies often serve similar purposes to cookies

6) Your cookie choices & how to manage them

A) Cookie consent (where applicable)

Where required, we ask for your consent before using non-essential cookies (such as analytics and marketing). You can update your preferences at any time through the cookie banner/settings if available on the site.

Important: Blocking essential cookies may stop features like basket and checkout from working correctly.

7) How long cookies stay on your device

Some cookies are deleted when you close your browser (session cookies). Others remain for longer (persistent cookies) depending on their purpose and settings, or until you delete them manually.

8) Updates to this Cookie Policy

We may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes in law, technology, or our practices. Any updates will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
