This Cookie Policy explains how PrintXYZ uses cookies and similar technologies on printxyz.uk. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy. Our use of cookies complies with the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR) and the UK GDPR.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet or phone) when you visit a website. They allow the site to recognise your device, remember preferences and improve your experience. We also use related technologies such as local storage and pixels, which we refer to collectively as “cookies” in this policy.

2. How we use cookies

We use cookies to:

  • keep the website running properly (e.g. remember what’s in your basket and keep you logged in);
  • secure your visit and prevent fraud;
  • remember preferences such as currency and recently viewed products;
  • understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it;
  • where you have opted in, deliver relevant marketing.

3. Categories of cookies we use

3.1 Strictly necessary cookies

These are essential for the website to work and cannot be switched off. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as adding items to your basket, logging in, or completing checkout. Without them, parts of the site simply will not function. No consent is required for strictly necessary cookies.

Examples: session ID, shopping cart contents, login state, security/CSRF tokens, cookie consent preference, the Lumise product-designer working state.

3.2 Functional cookies

These remember choices you make to give you a better experience — such as your preferred language, recently viewed products, or wishlist contents. If you disable them, parts of the site may still work but with reduced personalisation.

3.3 Analytics / performance cookies

These help us understand how visitors interact with the website by collecting and reporting information anonymously — for example, which pages are most visited and where users drop off. We use this information to improve site performance, navigation and content.

3.4 Marketing cookies

If enabled, these cookies may be set by us or by third-party advertising partners to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant ads on other websites. They are only set with your explicit consent.

4. Third-party cookies

Some cookies are set by third-party services that appear on our pages. These third parties are responsible for their own cookies and you should review their policies for full details. Examples include:

  • Stripe / PayPal / Klarna — to process payments securely and prevent fraud.
  • Cloudflare — for content delivery, bot mitigation and DDoS protection (__cf_bm, cf_clearance).
  • Embedded content — videos or social media widgets may set their own cookies.

5. How long cookies last

  • Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser.
  • Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period — typically from a few minutes (security tokens) up to 12 months (preferences and analytics).

6. Managing your cookie choices

6.1 Cookie banner

When you first visit our site you will see a cookie notice giving you the option to accept or refuse non-essential cookies. You can change your choices at any time by clearing your cookies in your browser and re-visiting the site, or by contacting us.

6.2 Browser controls

You can also control or delete cookies via your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:

  • see what cookies are stored and delete them individually;
  • block third-party cookies;
  • block all cookies from specific sites;
  • block all cookies (note: this will prevent shopping baskets, login and checkout from working).

6.3 Opting out of advertising

You can opt out of interest-based advertising at Your Online Choices (UK).
