Cookies

A cookie is a short note this website asks your browser to keep, and hands back to us the next time you load a page. That is the whole of it. It is how a shop can remember that the tyre you picked two pages ago is still in your basket, because otherwise every page would meet you as a stranger.

These are set as soon as you arrive, because without them the shop does not work:

• One that keeps your basket, so it survives from page to page
• One that keeps you signed in, if you have an account
• One that remembers the language and currency you chose
• One that remembers your answer to the cookie banner — so it stops asking

None of these tells us who you are, and none of them follows you off this site. They go when your order does.

At the moment we run no analytics and no advertising cookies at all.

The banner at the bottom of the page when you first arrive lets you accept everything or keep only what the shop needs. Choosing the second one costs you nothing: the shop works exactly the same.

Every browser lets you see the cookies a site has set and throw them away, usually under Settings, then Privacy. You can also block them altogether — but then your basket will empty itself every time you change page, which is a browser doing what you asked rather than the shop being broken.

Anything on this page, or anything you want deleted, goes through the contact page. What we hold about you beyond cookies is set out in the privacy policy.
