Cookie Policy

1. About This Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how The Ancient Irish Craft™ uses cookies and similar technologies on our website.
It is designed to comply with:

UK GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive (PECR)
EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
Relevant international privacy standards

Our website uses only essential cookies required for security, performance, and core functionality, along with optional Wix-native functional cookies (for example, basic site analytics and language preferences). These cookies do not share data with third parties.

We do not use Google Analytics, advertising, or third-party tracking cookies.
Any analytics data collected through Wix is anonymised, first-party, and used only to understand general site performance.

By continuing to use our website, you acknowledge that essential cookies will be placed to ensure it functions correctly.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website.
They help certain site features work correctly—such as remembering your shopping basket or keeping you signed in.

We use only Strictly Necessary Cookies, meaning cookies that:

are required for the site to operate;
enable secure log-in, checkout, or membership access;
maintain your language and currency preferences;
protect the site against fraud and abuse.

These cookies do not store personal or identifiable information and do not require consent under UK and EU law.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We use two general categories of cookies:

Essential or Strictly Necessary Cookies:

These are required for the website to function properly. They enable features such as log-in areas, shopping baskets, secure payments, and protection against security threats.
Examples include cookies like svSession, XSRF-TOKEN, hs, bSession, ssr-caching, consent-policy, and wix-commerce-cart.

Functional (Preference) Cookies:

These remember user choices such as language or currency settings to improve your browsing experience.
For example, the wixLanguage or CurrencyConverter cookie may store your chosen preferences.

We do not use analytics, performance, marketing, or advertising cookies such as Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, or other third-party trackers.

4. Managing Cookies

Although our site uses only essential and low-risk functional cookies, we display a cookie banner (via Consentik) to inform visitors and allow optional consent for functional analytics. You may choose to accept or reject these at any time.

If you wish, you can still manage or delete cookies through your browser settings.
Please note that disabling essential cookies may prevent some site functions (such as checkout or login) from working correctly.

5. Your Rights

You have the right to:

Access, correct, or delete your personal data held by us (see our Privacy Policy).
Contact us with any privacy questions at support@theancientirishcraft.com

We do not sell, trade, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing or profiling purposes.

6. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect legal changes or new website features.
Any updates will be posted on this page, with the date below updated accordingly.
