What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and supply information to website owners.
Cookies can be "persistent" (remaining on your device until deleted or until they expire) or "session" cookies (deleted when you close your browser).
How We Use Cookies
Dutch Bakery uses cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:
Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website to function properly. They enable core functionality such as remembering your cookie consent preferences. Without these cookies, certain features of the website may not work correctly.
- cookieConsent – Stores your cookie preferences (localStorage). Expires: Persistent until cleared.
Functionality Cookies
These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalisation. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages.
- selectedService – Temporarily stores your service selection for order confirmation display (sessionStorage). Expires: When browser session ends.
Third-Party Cookies
We may use third-party services that set their own cookies. These services are subject to their own privacy and cookie policies. We do not control third-party cookies.
If we integrate any third-party services in the future (such as analytics or social media widgets), we will update this policy accordingly.
Your Cookie Choices
When you first visit our website, you will see a cookie banner asking for your consent. You can choose to accept or reject non-essential cookies.
Changing Your Preferences
You can change your cookie preferences at any time by:
- Clearing your browser's local storage and cookies, then revisiting our website
- Adjusting your browser settings to block or delete cookies
Browser Settings
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically find these options in your browser's "Settings", "Preferences", or "Privacy" menu. Common browsers include:
- Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and security > Cookies
- Mozilla Firefox: Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies
- Safari: Preferences > Privacy
- Microsoft Edge: Settings > Cookies and site permissions
Please note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of this and other websites you visit.
Local Storage
In addition to cookies, we use browser local storage to remember certain preferences. Local storage functions similarly to cookies but can store larger amounts of data and does not expire automatically.
You can clear local storage through your browser's developer tools or by clearing all site data in your browser settings.
Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that sends a signal to websites requesting that your browsing activity not be tracked. Our website currently does not respond to DNT signals, but we limit our tracking activities as described in this policy.
Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legislation, or our business practices. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
