02.How We Use Cookies
We use cookies and similar technologies (pixels, local storage) to:
- Keep you signed in and remember your shopping cart.
- Run secure payment sessions with Stripe.
- Measure traffic and improve our website via Google Analytics.
- Show you relevant marketing on partner platforms (only if you opt in).
03.Types of Cookies We Use
Strictly Necessary
Required for the Site to function — e.g., authentication tokens, cart contents, CSRF protection, Stripe checkout sessions. These cannot be turned off.
Performance & Analytics
Help us understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve it. We use Google Analytics with IP anonymisation. Data is aggregated and pseudonymised.

Remember preferences such as your selected art style, recently viewed products and language.
Marketing
Set only with your consent, used to show relevant ads on third-party sites (e.g., Meta, Pinterest).
04.Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are set by third-party services we use:
- Stripe — payment processing and fraud prevention.
- Google Analytics — anonymised website analytics.
- Supabase — secure session management.
- Meta / Pinterest pixels — only when marketing cookies are accepted.
These third parties have their own privacy and cookie policies, which we recommend reviewing.
05.How to Manage Cookies
You can control cookies in several ways:
- Use the cookie banner on first visit to accept or decline non-essential cookies.
- Adjust your browser settings to block or delete cookies. Most browsers also support “Do Not Track” signals.
- Opt out of Google Analytics via the Google Analytics Opt-Out add-on.
Disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent parts of the Site (such as checkout) from working.
