1. What cookies are

Cookies are small files stored on your device that help a website function and remember your preferences. This policy explains which cookies we use and how to control them.

2. Your choice comes first

When you arrive, we show a cookie banner with Accept and Decline options. No analytics or tracking scripts load until you accept. If you decline, only the strictly necessary cookies below are used, and no tracking tools are ever injected. Your choice is remembered for 30 days, after which we'll ask again.

3. Cookies we use

We keep our cookie use deliberately minimal. The Site uses only the following:

Strictly necessary (always active)

Cookie

Purpose

Duration

sprout_cart_id

Remembers your shopping cart between visits

Persistent

sprout_password

Maintains access to password-protected areas

Session/persistent

sprout_cookie_disclosure

Stores your cookie choice (accepted/declined)

30 days

sprout_country

Remembers your selected country/region

Persistent

These are required for the Site to function and do not track you for advertising.

Analytics & measurement (only after you accept)
These are set by third parties when you consent:

Provider

Purpose

Google Analytics 4

Aggregate usage statistics

Meta (Facebook) Pixel

Conversion measurement

Microsoft Clarity

Anonymized session recordings and heatmaps

If you decline, none of these are set.

4. Managing your choice

• On the Site: clear the sprout_cookie_disclosure cookie (or wait 30 days) to see the banner again and change your decision.
• In your browser: you can block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may break cart and access features.
• Provider opt-outs: you can also opt out directly via [Google Analytics opt-out], [Meta's ad preferences], and [Microsoft's privacy controls].
