cookie policy
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which ones teehog.com uses, what each type does, and how to control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which covers personal information more broadly.
The cookies this site uses, summarized. Each category is described in full below.
| Cookie Type | Purpose and Control |
|---|---|
| Essential | Keeps the cart and checkout working. Cannot be switched off from within the site |
| Analytics | Google Analytics 4, reported in aggregate. Can be blocked in your browser |
| Functional | Remembers preferences between visits. Optional |
| Marketing | Measures campaign performance. Never used to build profiles for sale |
| Third-party cookies | Set by PayPal at checkout and by Google Analytics |
| How long they last | Session cookies until you close the browser, others 30 days to 24 months |
| How to control them | Through your browser settings, described at the end of this page |
What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They let the site recognize your browser between page loads and across visits, which is what keeps a shopping cart intact while you browse. Cookies cannot read other files on your device, and they cannot carry viruses or executable code.
Types of Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
These make the store function. They hold the contents of your cart, keep your session active through checkout, remember which items you have viewed within a session, and support security measures that protect against fraudulent activity. The site cannot operate without them, so they cannot be switched off from within the site.
Analytics Cookies
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors reach and move through the site: which pages are viewed, how long people stay, where visits come from, and where the checkout flow loses people. This data is reported in aggregate and is used to improve product pages, sizing information, and site speed.
Functional Cookies
These remember preferences such as previously entered delivery details and dismissed notices, so you do not have to set them again on a later visit. Disabling them does not break the store, though some steps will need repeating.
Marketing Cookies
Where marketing cookies are active, they measure the performance of campaigns and limit how often the same promotional message is shown to one visitor. We do not use cookies to build profiles for sale to third parties.
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are set by services we rely on rather than by us. PayPal sets cookies during checkout to process payment securely and to detect fraud, and Google Analytics sets cookies for the measurement described above. These providers operate under their own privacy and cookie policies, which we encourage you to read.
How Long Cookies Last
- Session cookies are deleted automatically when you close your browser
- Persistent cookies remain for a set period, typically between 30 days and 24 months depending on their purpose
Managing and Disabling Cookies
You can control cookies from your browser settings, where you can view what is stored, delete existing cookies, and block new ones. The relevant settings are usually found under:
- Google Chrome: Settings, then Privacy and security, then Cookies and other site data
- Safari: Settings, then Privacy
- Mozilla Firefox: Settings, then Privacy & Security
- Microsoft Edge: Settings, then Cookies and site permissions
Blocking all cookies will prevent the cart and checkout from working correctly, since those features depend on essential cookies. Clearing cookies also removes any preferences saved for a future visit.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy as the technologies used on the site change. Revisions are posted here with a new date.
