What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your computer or phone. Similar technologies (such as pixels, local storage and scripts) work in a similar way. In this policy we call all of them “cookies”.
This policy explains which cookies www.spice4drink.co.uk uses and how you can control them. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

| Preferences | Remember settings such as language or region. | WordPress, embedded maps | Only with your consent. |

UK law allows some cookies used only for statistics to be set without consent, provided you are clearly informed and can easily object. We nevertheless ask for your consent before using any statistics or marketing cookies.
How you give and change consent
When you first visit the site, a banner lets you accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or choose categories. Rejecting is as easy as accepting. Statistics and marketing cookies are blocked until you agree.
You can change or withdraw your consent at any time: Change your cookie settings. A link is also available in the footer of every page.
Browser settings
You can also delete cookies or block them in your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may stop the basket and checkout from working.
Third-party cookies
Some cookies are set by our partners (for example Google, Meta, PayPal). They may combine this data with other information they hold about you under their own privacy notices. More information about who receives data and about international transfers is in our Privacy Policy.
