What cookies this site drops, what each one does, and how to switch off the ones you don't want. Spoiler: there aren't many, and none of them follow you around.

Three kinds, that's it:
- Essential: remembers your cookie choice itself, keeps forms working, holds session state. The site breaks without these, so they're always on.
- Preferences: remembers your suburb in the delivery checker and your cookie selection between visits.
- Analytics: tells us which pages get read and which get skipped. Aggregated, anonymous, and genuinely useful for fixing the site.
Nothing here tracks you across other websites. We don't run advertising pixels or retargeting.
Essential cookies
These keep the site functional: the cookie-consent record (so we don't nag you every visit), form security tokens, and session identifiers. Without them the contact form and delivery checker wouldn't work reliably.
Essential cookies can't be switched off in the banner, but you can block them in your browser settings if you really want. The site just won't remember anything for you.
Preference cookies
Small conveniences: your last suburb in the delivery zone checker, your cookie choice, and nothing else. They live for up to 12 months, then expire on their own.
Analytics cookies
We measure page views, scroll depth and referral sources in aggregate: which pages get read, which get skipped, which devices visit. We can't identify you from analytics data and we don't try.
Decline analytics in the cookie banner and nothing about your visit changes except our charts get slightly less complete.
Third parties
The embedded Google Map on the contacts page is the only third-party service that can set cookies, and only if you interact with it. Google's own policy covers those. We don't embed social feeds or ad networks.
Changing your mind
Update your choice any time: clear your browser cookies and the banner returns on your next visit. Browser settings can block cookies entirely; every browser documents how, and the site still functions.
Questions about cookies or tracking go to bloominggiftstudio@gmail.com, subject 'Cookie question'. The privacy policy covers the data side.
The shortest version: we set about a dozen cookies, none of them spy on you, and the banner's decline button actually works.
