Cookie Policy

How we use cookies and similar technologies on okapi-shop.com — in compliance with PECR and UK GDPR

Last updated: April 2026

1Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how Equinutrients Ltd ("we", "us", "our"), the operator of okapi-shop.com (the "Site"), uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our Site.

This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and our Terms & Conditions of Sale.

2What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to the website operator.

Similar technologies include pixels, web beacons, local storage, and device fingerprinting. References to "cookies" in this policy include all such similar technologies unless stated otherwise.

3Legal Basis for Using Cookies

We use cookies in accordance with:

  • The Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR);
  • The UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018;
  • The EU GDPR, where applicable to EU visitors.
Strictly necessary cookies do not require your consent. They are essential for the Site to function.

All other cookies (functional, analytics, marketing) require your explicit, informed consent before being placed on your device. We obtain this through our cookie consent banner shown on your first visit.

4Categories of Cookies We Use

No consent required

Strictly necessary

Essential for the Site to function: shopping cart, checkout, account login, security and load balancing. These cannot be switched off.

Consent required

Functional

Remember your preferences, such as language, currency, and region, to give you a more personalised experience.

Consent required

Analytics

Help us understand how visitors use the Site (e.g. Google Analytics) so we can improve content and user experience. Data is processed in aggregated form.

Consent required

Marketing

Set by us or our partners (e.g. Meta, Google Ads) to show you relevant advertising on other websites and to measure ad performance.

5Specific Cookies on This Site

A complete, up-to-date list of every cookie used on this Site — including name, provider, purpose and duration — is available in our cookie consent banner. Click the cookie icon in the bottom corner of any page to view or change your settings at any time.

Note for Carsten: Once your CMP (Cookiebot, OneTrust or similar) is integrated, the detailed cookie tables are typically maintained automatically by the consent platform — so this section can stay short and link out instead of duplicating the cookie inventory.

6How to Manage Cookies

You can change your cookie preferences at any time:

  • On our Site: click the cookie icon at the bottom of any page to reopen the consent banner and change your settings.
  • In your browser: all major browsers allow you to view, manage and delete cookies. Settings can usually be found in the "Privacy" or "Security" section.
  • For advertising cookies: visit www.youronlinechoices.com for information about behavioural advertising and how to opt out across multiple platforms.

Please note that disabling cookies, especially strictly necessary ones, may affect the functionality of the Site (e.g. the shopping cart may not work correctly).

7International Data Transfers

Some cookies set by third-party providers (such as Google or Meta) may transfer data outside the United Kingdom and the European Economic Area. Where this happens, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, including standard contractual clauses approved by the UK ICO. For more information, please see our Privacy Policy.

8Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time, for example when we add new tools or as the law changes. The latest version is always available on this page, with the "Last updated" date at the top.
