Cookie Policy
Which cookies and browser storage velvinci.com uses, what each one does and how long it stays. The short answer: only the ones the shop needs to work.
1What cookies are
Cookies are small text files a website saves in your browser. Browser storage works the same way, but stays on your device and is never sent to us by itself. We use both, and list both here.
2Our approach
We only use cookies that the shop needs to work: to keep your bag, keep you signed in, remember a guest wishlist and protect the site. The law allows these without asking, which is why you see no cookie banner.
We do not use analytics, advertising or social media tracking cookies. If we ever want to, we will ask for your permission first with a clear choice, and update this page.
