Cookie Settings

glimnix.com uses cookies to keep the store running, understand how it is used, and measure the performance of our advertising. This page explains which cookies we use, why, and how you can manage them.

Effective date: 21 September 2026 Applies to: glimnix.com

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device when you visit. They are widely used to make websites work correctly, remember your preferences, and provide information to the site owner about how their site is being used.

Some cookies are essential for the store to function — without them, you would not be able to add items to your basket or complete a purchase. Others are optional and are set only where you have the ability to opt out, either through our notice when you first visit or through your browser settings.

Cookies do not contain your payment card details. Card data is handled directly by our payment processor, Oceanpayment, and is never stored on glimnix.com.

2. Cookies We Use

glimnix.com uses the following categories of cookies. Where a cookie requires your consent under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), it is marked accordingly.

Essential Cookies Always active

These cookies are strictly necessary for glimnix.com to function. They enable core features including your shopping basket, secure checkout, and session management. They cannot be disabled without breaking the store.

Set by: Shopify Inc. — the platform that hosts and operates glimnix.com. Shopify sets essential cookies as part of running the storefront and processing orders securely.

Analytics Cookies Requires consent

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors use glimnix.com — for example, which pages are visited most and how people navigate the store. This helps us improve the customer experience.

GA4 uses pseudonymised identifiers and does not give us information that directly identifies you as an individual. Analytics cookies are only set if you have accepted them. You can opt out at any time using your browser settings — see Section 3 below.

Set by: Google LLC. Data may be processed outside the United Kingdom. Google's data transfers rely on Standard Contractual Clauses.

Advertising & Measurement Cookies Requires consent

We use the Meta Pixel and the Meta Conversions API to measure the effectiveness of our advertising on Facebook and Instagram. These tools record events such as page views and completed purchases, and send that information to Meta to help us understand which ads are working.

The Meta Pixel works via a browser cookie. The Meta Conversions API is a server-side integration that sends event data directly from Shopify to Meta — it does not set a cookie on your device, but it does process order-related data. Both are active only where consent has been given for advertising measurement.

Set by: Meta Platforms Ireland Limited. Data may be processed outside the United Kingdom. Meta's international data transfers are governed by Standard Contractual Clauses and Meta's data processing terms.

Preference Cookies Requires consent

A small cookie is set to remember your cookie preferences so that you are not asked every time you visit. This cookie stores your consent choices and does not contain any personal information about you.

Set by: Shopify — as part of the storefront consent management functionality.

We do not use cookies for: direct marketing emails, building advertising profiles for third-party ad networks (other than Meta measurement as described above), or any purpose not listed on this page. We do not sell personal information collected through cookies.

3. Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You have control over the optional cookies used on glimnix.com. There are two ways to manage them.

Through your browser settings

Most browsers let you view, block, or delete cookies at any time. Blocking all cookies will prevent glimnix.com from functioning correctly — your shopping basket will not work and you will be unable to complete a purchase. You can choose to block only third-party cookies (such as analytics and advertising cookies) while keeping essential cookies active.

Opting out of Google Analytics

You can prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about your visits across all websites using Google's own Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Opting out of Meta advertising measurement

If you have a Facebook or Instagram account, you can manage your advertising preferences in your Facebook Ad Settings. You can also opt out of interest-based advertising from participating companies via the Your Online Choices tool.

Deleting cookies: Deleting cookies from your browser will remove any saved preferences, including your consent choices. The next time you visit glimnix.com, you may be asked about cookies again.

4. Cookies and Your Personal Data

Some cookies on glimnix.com process personal data (such as a pseudonymised device identifier or IP address). Where that is the case, we handle it in accordance with our Privacy Policy, which sets out the full detail of how we collect and use personal information, the lawful bases we rely on, your UK GDPR rights, and how to exercise them.

Cookie data collected for analytics purposes (Google Analytics 4) is pseudonymised — it does not directly identify you by name or contact details.

Cookie data used for advertising measurement (Meta Pixel and Conversions API) may be associated with information held by Meta, subject to Meta's own privacy practices and your Meta account settings.

6. Changes to This Page

We may update this Cookie Settings page if we change the cookies we use, add new services, or to reflect changes in applicable law. When we make material changes, we will update the effective date at the top of this page.
