Cookie Policy

Cookie policy

Last updated: 8 September 2026

This policy explains cookies, pixels, local storage, tags, software development kits and similar storage or access technologies used on pokeboo.uk. Some technologies store or read information on your device; others send website events from our server to a provider.

How consent works

Required technologies operate because they are necessary to provide, secure or remember a service you request, or because another legal exception applies. Personalisation, marketing and analytics technologies are controlled through our banner and preference centre where consent is required. They are off by default for UK visitors until selected. You can Accept all, Decline all or choose categories, and can change your mind at any time through the Cookie preferences link.

A provider may receive an event without setting a traditional browser cookie, for example through server-side measurement. We apply consent and data-protection rules to these activities as described in the privacy notice.

Managing technologies

Use Cookie preferences on the website to withdraw or change consent. You may also delete or block cookies through your browser and use controls offered by advertising platforms. Blocking required storage can prevent basket, checkout, login or security functions from working. Browser deletion does not necessarily opt you out of server-side processing, so also use our preference centre and platform controls.
