Cookie Policy

Last updated: 14 August 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Zaira Jewelery uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit or interact with our website.

Our online store is powered by Shopify. Shopify and other authorised service providers may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the store, process transactions, maintain security and provide other features.

This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your computer, smartphone or other device when you visit a website. They help websites function, remember preferences and provide information about how visitors interact with them.

Cookies may be:

• Session cookies, which expire when you close your browser

• Persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a specified period

• First-party cookies, which are placed by our website

• Third-party cookies, which are placed by authorised service providers

Similar technologies may include pixels, tags, scripts, local storage and device identifiers. References to “cookies” in this policy include these technologies where applicable.

2. UK and EU Cookie Rules

For UK visitors, our use of cookies is governed by the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003, as amended, together with applicable UK data-protection law.

Where EU or Irish law applies, we will also comply with the applicable requirements of the EU General Data Protection Regulation and ePrivacy rules.

We may place strictly necessary cookies without your consent where permitted by law. We will request your consent before using non-essential cookies unless a specific legal exemption applies.

Continuing to browse the website does not, by itself, constitute consent to non-essential cookies.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are necessary to provide functions and services you request. They may be used to:

• Operate the shopping basket and checkout

• Process and secure transactions

• Maintain website and account security

• Prevent fraud

• Remember your cookie preferences

• Enable account login

• Maintain website stability and functionality

These cookies generally cannot be disabled through our cookie-preference tool because the website may not function properly without them.

Functional Cookies

Functional cookies help provide enhanced features and remember choices such as:

• Language preferences

• Currency selection

• Location or regional settings

• Saved shopping-basket items

• Display preferences

Where these cookies are not strictly necessary or otherwise legally exempt, they will only be used with your consent.

Performance and Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors use our website and allow us to measure and improve its performance.

They may collect information such as:

• Pages and products viewed

• Time spent on the website

• Links selected

• Browser and device type

• Approximate location

• Referring website

• Website errors and performance information

We may use Shopify analytics and other analytics services for these purposes.

Where consent is legally required, these cookies will not be placed unless you accept them. If a legal exemption applies to limited analytics or statistical cookies, we will only use them in accordance with the conditions attached to that exemption.

Marketing and Advertising Cookies

These cookies may be used to:

• Deliver more relevant advertisements

• Measure advertising performance

• Understand whether an advertisement resulted in a website visit or purchase

• Limit how often an advertisement is displayed

• Build an understanding of customer interests

• Personalise marketing content

These cookies may be placed by Shopify, social-media platforms or advertising partners.

We will not place marketing or advertising cookies before obtaining your consent where consent is required by law.

4. Your Cookie Choices

When you first visit our website, you may be presented with a cookie banner that allows you to:

• Accept non-essential cookies

• Reject non-essential cookies

• Manage individual cookie categories

Non-essential cookies should remain disabled unless you actively consent to them or their use is otherwise permitted by law.

You may change or withdraw your consent at any time through the Cookie Preferences or Privacy Choices link available on our website.

Withdrawing consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before it was withdrawn.

Rejecting non-essential cookies will not prevent you from placing an order, although certain optional features may not function as intended.

5. Browser and Device Settings

Most browsers allow you to view, block or delete cookies through their settings. Your device may also provide controls for advertising identifiers and similar technologies.

Please note that browser settings may not offer the same level of control as our cookie-preference tool. Blocking all cookies, including strictly necessary cookies, may prevent parts of the website, shopping basket or checkout from functioning correctly.

6. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies may be placed or accessed by third parties that provide services to our store, including:

• Shopify

• Payment processors

• Delivery or logistics services

• Website analytics providers

• Advertising and social-media platforms

• Fraud-prevention and security providers

These organisations may process information for us or for their own purposes, depending on the service they provide. Their processing may also be governed by their respective privacy and cookie policies.

We recommend reviewing the privacy information provided by any third-party service with which you interact.

7. Cookie Duration

The length of time a cookie remains on your device depends on its purpose and whether it is a session or persistent cookie.

Session cookies usually expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain until their stated expiry date or until you delete them.

Specific cookie names, providers, purposes and durations should be displayed through our cookie-preference centre or cookie-scanning tool where available.

8. Personal Information Collected Through Cookies

Some cookies and similar technologies may collect information that constitutes personal information, including:

• IP address

• Device and browser information

• Cookie or device identifiers

• Website activity

• Purchase and checkout activity

• Approximate location

• Advertising interactions

We process personal information collected through cookies as described in our Privacy Policy.

Where personal information is transferred outside the United Kingdom or European Economic Area, appropriate safeguards will be used where required by law.

9. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes to:

• Our website or services

• The cookies and technologies we use

• Shopify or other service providers

• Applicable laws or regulatory guidance

The updated policy will be published on this page with a revised “Last updated” date.
