This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them on habymart.shop, and how you can manage your preferences.

1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, tablet, or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and give website operators information about how their site is being used.
Cookies can be:
- First-party cookies: set by the website you are visiting (habymart.shop)
- Third-party cookies: set by a domain other than the one you are visiting (e.g., Google, payment providers)
- Session cookies: temporary cookies that are deleted when you close your browser
- Persistent cookies: cookies that remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them manually
2. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies and similar technologies (such as web beacons and pixel tags) to:
- Ensure our website functions correctly (e.g., keeping items in your shopping cart)
- Remember your preferences and settings
- Understand how visitors interact with our website
- Measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns
- Deliver relevant advertisements to you on other websites
- Protect our website against fraud and abuse
3. Types of Cookies We Use
We categorise the cookies on our website into four groups. Non-essential cookies (functional, analytics, and marketing) are only activated after you have given your explicit consent through our cookie consent banner.
4. Strictly Necessary Cookies
5. Functional Cookies
6. Analytics Cookies
7. Marketing Cookies
8. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on our website are placed by third-party services that appear on our pages. We do not control the setting of these cookies. The third parties that may set cookies on our website include:
| Third Party | Purpose | Privacy Policy |
|---|---|---|
| Google Analytics | Website usage analysis and reporting | Google Privacy Policy |
| Google Ads | Conversion tracking and remarketing | Google Privacy Policy |
| Google DoubleClick | Ad serving and measurement | Google Privacy Policy |
| CookieYes | Cookie consent management | CookieYes Privacy Policy |
We encourage you to review the privacy policies of these third parties for more information about how they use cookies and personal data.
9. Cookie Consent and Google Consent Mode v2
In accordance with the ePrivacy Directive (2002/58/EC as amended by 2009/136/EC) and the GDPR, we require your explicit consent before placing any non-essential cookies on your device.
9.1 Cookie Consent Banner
When you first visit our website, you will see a cookie consent banner powered by CookieYes. This banner allows you to:
- Accept all cookies
- Reject all non-essential cookies
- Customise your preferences by cookie category (functional, analytics, marketing)
You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the “Cookie Settings” link in our website footer or by clearing your browser cookies and revisiting the site.
9.2 Google Consent Mode v2
We have implemented Google Consent Mode v2, which is required by Google for websites serving users in the European Economic Area. This technology ensures that:
- Before consent: Google tags load in a restricted “denied” state. No cookies are set, no personal data is collected. Cookieless pings may be sent to Google for basic, non-identifying measurement.
- After consent granted: Google tags operate fully, setting analytics and advertising cookies as described above.
- After consent denied: Google tags remain in restricted mode. No tracking cookies are placed. Limited, anonymous data modelling may occur on Google’s side.
The consent signals we pass to Google include:
| Consent Signal | Purpose | Default State |
|---|---|---|
| analytics_storage | Controls storage for analytics (e.g., visit duration) | Denied |
| ad_storage | Controls storage for advertising (e.g., conversion cookies) | Denied |
| ad_user_data | Controls whether user data is sent to Google for advertising | Denied |
| ad_personalization | Controls whether personalised advertising is enabled | Denied |
| functionality_storage | Controls storage for website functionality | Denied |
| personalization_storage | Controls storage for personalisation (e.g., recommendations) | Denied |
| security_storage | Controls storage for security (e.g., authentication, fraud prevention) | Granted |
