Last updated: 20 May 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how SDM Perfumes uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on sdmperfumes.co.uk. It operates in conjunction with our Privacy Policy to explain what cookies are, why they are used, and how you can manage your preferences.

This policy is written in compliance with the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR).

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device, remember your preferences, and analyse site usage. The cookies used on this site do not contain personal identifiers such as your name, address, or payment details.

2. Categories of Cookies We Use

We use four categories of cookies on sdmperfumes.co.uk:

Strictly Necessary Cookies These are essential for core website operations. Without them, services such as shopping basket tracking, account login, and checkout cannot function. Consent required: No (legitimate operational necessity).

Functional Cookies These record your preferences (such as language or currency) to provide a consistent experience on future visits. Consent required: Yes.

Performance and Analytics Cookies These collect anonymous, aggregated information about how visitors navigate our website, allowing us to monitor traffic sources and site performance. Consent required: Yes.

Marketing and Advertising Cookies These track engagement to measure the performance of marketing campaigns and deliver relevant product advertising across third-party advertising networks. Consent required: Yes.

3. Specific Cookies We Use

The primary cookies used on our platform are listed below:

Note: Additional cookies may be deployed periodically by apps installed on our platform. You can review a real-time summary via the Cookie Settings link in our website footer.

4. Third-Party Data Processors

Some cookies are set by trusted third-party services that support our platform:

• Shopify Inc. — e-commerce platform and hosting
• Google Analytics & Google Ads — traffic analytics and advertising
• Meta (Facebook / Instagram) — advertising
• TikTok — advertising
• Klaviyo / Mailchimp — transactional and opted-in email dispatch
• PayPal / Klarna — checkout payment processing

These third-party platforms manage data collection under their own privacy and cookie policies, which we recommend you review.

5. Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You retain full control over the storage of non-essential cookies on your device.

Through Our Cookie Banner

When you first visit sdmperfumes.co.uk, a banner allows you to accept all cookies, reject all non-essential cookies, or customise your preferences. These settings can be modified at any time via the "Cookie Settings" link in our website footer.

6. Consequences of Disabling Cookies

If you block or reject tracking technologies:

• Strictly Necessary cookies will remain active to ensure transaction and basket operations function correctly.
• Functional, analytics, and marketing cookies will not be set. As a result, preferences such as currency selection may not be retained, and we will not be able to measure site performance during your session.
• Core browsing and checkout functionality will remain accessible regardless of your cookie configuration.

7. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers transmit a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal to websites. Because no uniform international standard exists to interpret these signals, our website does not alter its data collection behaviour upon receiving a DNT signal. You can manage your preferences through the options outlined in Section 5.

8. Children's Privacy

Our website and products are intended for customers aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect data from minors via cookies. If you believe a minor has interacted with our tracking scripts, contact us at contact@sdmperfumes.co.uk and we will arrange removal.
