Cookie Policy

Last updated: 25 May 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Wine Storage Solutions Ltd ("we", "us", "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on this website. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle your personal data.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet or mobile) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the site owner. Similar technologies such as pixels, web beacons and local storage perform comparable functions, and we refer to all of these as "cookies" in this policy.

How we use cookies

We use cookies to operate our online shop, remember the contents of your basket, keep you signed in, understand how the site is used so we can improve it, and — where you have consented — to support marketing and advertising.

The types of cookies we use

Strictly necessary cookies

These are essential for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They include cookies that enable shopping basket, checkout and secure payment functionality, and that protect against fraud. The site cannot work properly without them, so they do not require your consent.

Performance and analytics cookies

These help us understand how visitors interact with the site by collecting and reporting information anonymously — for example, which pages are most visited and whether visitors encounter errors. This helps us improve how the site works.

Functional cookies

These allow the website to remember choices you make (such as your region or preferences) to provide enhanced, more personal features.

Marketing and advertising cookies

These may be set through our site by us or our advertising partners to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant content and offers on this and other sites. They are only used where you have given consent.

Third-party cookies

Some cookies are set by third-party services that appear on our pages. These include:

  • Shopify — our e-commerce platform, which sets cookies necessary for browsing, the shopping basket and checkout.
  • Payment providers — to process payments securely.
  • Analytics providers — to help us measure and improve site performance.
  • Review and content widgets (such as customer review displays embedded on the site).

We do not control the setting of these third-party cookies, so we recommend reviewing the relevant third party's own cookie and privacy policies.

Managing your cookie preferences

When you first visit the site you can choose which non-essential cookies to accept via our cookie banner, and you can change your choice at any time. You can also control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers let you refuse or remove cookies; the "Help" function within your browser explains how. Please note that blocking some cookies may affect how the website functions, including basket and checkout features.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons. Please revisit this page periodically to stay informed.
