This Cookie Policy explains how Zota Cosmetics Ltd uses cookies and similar technologies on www.zotacosmetics.com. It should be read with our Privacy Policy.

1. WHAT COOKIES ARE

Cookies are small text files placed on a browser or device. Similar technologies include pixels, tags, local storage and software development kits. They can remember choices, support checkout, measure website use and help deliver advertising.

2. HOW WE USE COOKIES

We use the following categories:

• Strictly necessary cookies: required for core functions such as security, network management, checkout, payment, basket contents, fraud prevention and remembering privacy choices. These do not require consent where they are strictly necessary for a service you request.

• Functional cookies: remember choices and enable enhanced features such as chat, preferences or review functions. We request consent where required.

• Analytics cookies: help us understand visits, traffic sources and website performance, including through Google Analytics. Where consent is legally required, these are not activated until you consent.

• Advertising cookies and pixels: help measure campaigns, limit repetition, create audiences and show relevant advertising through services such as Google Ads, Meta/Facebook Pixel and TikTok Pixel. These are used only with consent where required.

3. SERVICES THAT MAY PLACE OR RECEIVE INFORMATION

Depending on your consent choices and the features you use, technologies may be operated by:

• Shopify, for store operation, checkout, security, customer accounts, Shopify Payments, Shopify Inbox and privacy choices.

• PayPal, when you choose PayPal or interact with its payment features.

• Judge.me, for product-review and review-widget functions.

• Google Analytics and Google Ads, for analytics, attribution and advertising.

• Meta Platforms, for Facebook and Instagram advertising measurement and audiences.

• TikTok, for advertising measurement and audiences.

The exact cookies present can change when Shopify or an installed app updates. Our cookie preference tool should display the current cookie or technology name, provider, purpose, category and duration where available. Third-party services may also describe their technologies in their own privacy or cookie notices.

4. CONSENT AND CHANGING YOUR CHOICES

When you first visit, our consent banner allows you to accept, reject or manage non-essential categories. Rejecting non-essential cookies does not prevent use of the core shopping and checkout functions, although some optional features may work differently.

You can change or withdraw consent at any time through the “Cookie settings” link in the website footer. Withdrawal does not affect processing that occurred before withdrawal. You can also delete or block cookies using browser settings, but blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent parts of the website from working.

5. COOKIE DURATION

Some cookies last only for the browser session and others remain for a defined period. Duration depends on purpose and provider. Current duration details should be available through our cookie preference tool. We periodically review whether cookies remain necessary and whether their duration is proportionate.

6. INTERNATIONAL PROCESSING

Some providers may process cookie identifiers and related information outside the United Kingdom. Please see the International transfers section of our Privacy Policy for more information.

7. CHANGES TO THIS POLICY

We may update this policy when technologies, providers or legal requirements change. The current version will be posted with an updated date.
