SAWMILL GULLY / THE PARTICULARS
Cookies & browser storage
What your browser remembers, and how to manage it.
1. Current local website
This preview does not set advertising or analytics cookies and does not include marketing pixels. It does use browser session storage and local storage for the controls described below. These are separate browser technologies that can remember a choice without setting a cookie.
Images and fonts are served with the website. Opening an external link, including the VENIN attribution or an official source, takes you to another service whose own storage/privacy practices may apply.
2. What is remembered
The current website stores these functional preview states:
- Adult-entry acknowledgement: session storage, normally for the current tab/session.
- Demonstration bag: sample products and quantities in session storage; saved prices are not trusted when the bag is reconstructed.
- Automatic bottle movement: a session preference remembers whether you paused the occasional decorative bottle nudges. This does not prevent deliberate rotation or change your marketing choices.
- Welcome claim and automatic-offer handling: session flags plus a bounded active-browsing duration (up to 30 seconds) and a collection/product-viewed flag, normally for the current tab/session. These control when the local offer appears and are not transmitted as analytics.
- Offer dismissal: a local-storage timestamp used to suppress automatic reopening for 14 days. The timestamp may remain stored after that period until cleared or replaced, but it no longer suppresses the offer.
- Names, email addresses and optional marketing choices from the welcome form are not saved in these storage entries.
3. Your controls
You can clear site data through your browser’s privacy settings. Closing the relevant tab/session normally clears session storage; browser session-restore behaviour may vary. Clearing storage can make the age check and offer reappear and remove the sample bag.
If storage is blocked, parts of the preview may remember choices only in memory or ask again on a later visit. The site does not use a storage choice as consent to ongoing marketing.
4. Future Shopify checkout and accounts
The planned live checkout, accounts, payment and fraud-prevention tools may use their own cookies and similar technologies. Their actual names, providers, purposes and durations must be checked when the store and apps are configured.
Optional analytics, advertising or email engagement tracking are not enabled by this draft. If introduced, the policy and appropriate user choices must be updated before activation. The current local-storage inventory should not be presented as a complete inventory of a future connected store.
John’s review points & research sources
- Recheck this inventory against the deployed site, Shopify account/checkout, installed apps and email tracking before go-live.
- Confirm any analytics, pixels or optional cookies and the appropriate choices for the markets actually served.
- Do not add an unnecessary consent banner to the current tracker-free preview or treat use of the site as blanket marketing consent.
