Policy
We use as few cookies as a shop can get away with. Nothing that isn't essential runs until you've said yes — and you can change your mind whenever you like.
Last updated September 2026
The short version
Cookies and similar browser storage let a site remember things between pages. Under the UK's Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) we may only set the ones that are strictly necessary to run the site without asking. Everything else — analytics, advertising — needs your consent first, and we don't load a single line of it until you give it.
Categories we use
- Strictly necessary — always on. Signing in, your bag, your saved pieces, and remembering that you've already seen the community popup.
- Analytics — off unless you allow it. Anonymous counts of which pages and pieces get looked at.
- Marketing — off unless you allow it. Reserved for an Instagram or Google Ads pixel if we ever run paid campaigns. Nothing is currently loaded in this category.
Exactly what we store
Most of what we keep isn't a cookie at all — it's local storage, which stays on your device and is never sent to us automatically.
| Name | Category | What it does | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
| karma:cookie-consent | Necessary | Remembers your cookie choices so we don't keep asking. | 6 months |
| karma:bag | Necessary | Your bag while you're browsing, so it survives a refresh. | Until cleared |
| karma:pending-save | Necessary | Holds the piece you tried to save before signing in, so it saves itself once you're back. | Until used |
| karma:community-popup-seen | Necessary | Stops the 20% welcome popup showing again. | Until cleared |
| karma:community-code | Necessary | Your personal welcome code, so we can show it back to you. | Until cleared |
| sb-…-auth-token | Necessary | Your sign-in session, set by our authentication provider. | Session / until sign-out |
If you allow analytics or marketing in future, the provider's cookies will be listed here before they're switched on.
Third parties
Payments taken in our shops and, in future, online are processed by Square. Embedded content — an Instagram post or a TikTok live — may set cookies from those platforms when you interact with it, under their own policies.
Managing cookies in your browser
Alongside the settings above, every browser lets you block or delete cookies and clear local storage. Blocking the strictly necessary ones will break signing in and your bag. Clearing them removes your saved preferences, so you'll be asked again on your next visit.
