Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how malabarcoast.co.uk, trading as Malabar Coast, uses cookies and similar technologies on the Site. It should be read together with ourPrivacy Policy.

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies include pixels, tags and local storage. They can help a site work, remember your preferences, keep checkout secure, and, where you consent, help a business understand and improve how its site is used.

• Strictly necessary, required for the Site to function, remember your basket, enable secure checkout or order access, and keep the Site safe. These are always active and do not require consent.
• Analytics & performance, help us understand how the Site is used so it can be improved. These must remain off unless you actively consent.
• Marketing & advertising, help measure campaigns or deliver relevant advertising. These must remain off unless you actively consent.

The current Site uses essential storage for features such as the basket, secure administration, checkout and protected order access. The application does not currently load the Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, Meta, TikTok or Google Ads tracking tools described in earlier versions of this policy.

If we introduce analytics or marketing technologies, they will be switched off by default and will only be set after a clear, positive choice. You will be able to accept, decline, change or withdraw that choice with equal ease.

You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies or storage may prevent parts of the Site from working correctly.

• Basket and interface storage, remembers items you add and limited interface preferences on your device.
• Order-access storage, helps keep customer order pages private after checkout.
• Security and administration cookies, support secure, authenticated access to restricted staff areas.
• Payment-provider storage, Stripe may set essential storage on its hosted checkout pages under its own policies.

The exact technologies in use can change as the Site develops. We will review this policy and update the list, purposes and available controls before enabling any new non-essential category.
