Cookies & local storage
Last updated: 29 September 2026
Your choice
If you visit from the EU, the EEA, the UK or Switzerland, you see a cookie banner on your first visit. Statistics and marketing cookies are only set after you accept them. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time here:
Visitors from other countries don’t see the banner, and statistics and marketing cookies are on for them. If your browser sends a Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control signal, we respect it and leave them off.
To decide which applies, the site asks our content delivery network (Cloudflare) for your country when you arrive. The answer is kept in your browser for that session only and isn’t stored by us.

The demo
The interactive demo contains a fictional store. It may save demo settings and interactions in your browser so that the demo works as expected. It does not import orders from your shop. Use Reset demo to return its data to the sample state; clearing this site’s browser storage removes locally saved settings.
Your controls
Besides the button above, you can inspect, block or remove cookies and site storage in your browser settings. Blocking necessary storage can stop sign-in, the cart or the demo from working.
