Cookie policy
Last updated: 17 October 2026
Cookies are small files a website stores in your browser so it can remember things from one page to the next. This page explains the cookies our website uses and why.
The cookies we use
We only use cookies the website needs to work. We don't use advertising cookies, and we don't use cookies to track you around the internet or to build a profile of you.
| Cookie | What it's for | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|
ci_session | Remembers your basket, wishlist, compare list, postcode and checkout details as you move from page to page. | About 2 hours after your last visit to a page |
csrf_cookie_name | Security: stops other websites from sending forms, such as checkout, in your name. | 2 hours |
pa_trusted_device | Staff only: remembers that a member of our staff confirmed their sign-in on this browser with an emailed code. | 30 days |
Because these cookies are strictly necessary for the website to work, the law doesn't require us to ask for your consent to use them. You can still block or delete them in your browser's settings, but your basket and checkout won't work without them.
Other websites
- Card payments: when you pay by card you go to the secure payment page of our payment provider, Worldpay. That page is on Worldpay's own website, and Worldpay may use its own cookies there to take your payment securely and prevent fraud. See Worldpay's cookie and privacy notices on their website.
- Map: the map on our showroom page comes from Google Maps. It only loads if you choose "Show the map"; Google may then set its own cookies, under Google's privacy policy. "Get directions" opens Google Maps on Google's website.
- Fonts: our text font is loaded from Google Fonts. This sets no cookies, but like any website your browser contacts, Google receives your device's internet address.
- Links to other websites, such as WhatsApp, take you to those websites, which have their own cookie policies.
