ESMETHIA - COOKIE POLICY

Last Updated: September 2, 2026

At Esmethia, we use cookies and similar technologies to help our website function properly, improve your shopping experience, understand how visitors use our website, and, where permitted, support our marketing activities.

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and how you can manage your preferences.

This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that may be stored on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other device when you visit a website.

They help websites remember information about your visit, maintain functionality, understand website usage, and provide relevant features.

We may also use similar technologies, such as pixels, tags, scripts, and other tracking technologies, which may operate in a similar way to cookies.

2. How We Use Cookies

Esmethia may use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are required for essential website functions and cannot generally be disabled through our website settings.

They may help us:

• Keep our website functioning correctly;
• Maintain shopping cart functionality;
• Support checkout and order processing;
• Maintain website security;
• Remember essential technical settings; and
• Provide services specifically requested by you.

These cookies are generally used without consent where they are strictly necessary to provide a service you have requested.

Preference & Functionality Cookies

These cookies may help remember choices or preferences so that your experience on our website is more convenient.

For example, they may help remember certain settings or preferences during your visit.

Where consent is required, these cookies will only be used after you provide the appropriate consent.

Analytics Cookies

Where enabled, analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website.

We may use analytics services, such as Google Analytics, to help us understand information such as:

• Which pages are visited;
• How visitors navigate our website;
• How our website performs; and
• How we can improve the shopping experience.

Analytics cookies are not strictly necessary for the basic operation of our website. Where consent is required, we will request your consent before using them.

Advertising & Marketing Cookies

Where enabled and permitted, we may use cookies, pixels, or similar technologies provided by services such as Google Ads and Meta to help us measure advertising performance, understand conversions, and deliver or measure relevant advertising.

These technologies may collect information about your interaction with our website or advertisements.

Advertising and conversion-tracking technologies that require consent will only be used after you have provided the appropriate consent.

3. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies or similar technologies may be placed by third-party service providers that support our website or business operations.

Depending on the services we use, these may include providers such as:

• Shopify — for website, shopping cart, checkout, and ecommerce functionality;
• Stripe — for secure payment processing;
• Google — for analytics, advertising, and related services where enabled; and
• Meta — for advertising and measurement where enabled.

Third-party providers may process information in accordance with their own privacy policies and terms.

We only intend to enable third-party tracking technologies in accordance with applicable consent requirements.

4. Cookie Consent

When you first visit our website, where required, you may be presented with a cookie consent banner or preference tool.

Where consent is required, non-essential cookies will not be placed or accessed before the appropriate consent is obtained.

You can choose which categories of non-essential cookies you wish to allow where our consent tool provides these options.

You are not required to consent to non-essential cookies in order to browse our website or make a purchase, although certain optional features may work differently depending on your preferences.

5. Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You can manage or withdraw your consent for non-essential cookies at any time through the cookie preference tools provided on our website.

Where available, you can use the Cookie Settings or similar option on our website to change your preferences.

You can also manage or delete cookies through your browser settings.

Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality or availability of some website features.

Consent withdrawal should be as easy as giving consent, in accordance with applicable requirements.

6. Essential Cookies

Some cookies are necessary for our website to operate properly. These may include cookies required for shopping cart functionality, checkout, security, and other services you have specifically requested.

Because these cookies are necessary for the website or requested service to function, they may be used without consent where permitted by applicable law.

7. Cookies & Personal Information

Some cookie-related information may constitute personal data when it can be linked to an identifiable individual.

Where this occurs, we process that information in accordance with applicable data protection laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable Irish data protection and electronic communications requirements.

Further information about how we collect, use, store, and protect personal information is available in our Privacy Policy.

8. International Data Transfers

Some third-party service providers we use may process information outside Ireland or the European Economic Area.

Where personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area, we will take appropriate measures required by applicable data protection law, such as relying on an applicable adequacy decision or appropriate safeguards where required.

Further information is available in our Privacy Policy.

9. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our website, the cookies and technologies we use, our service providers, or applicable legal requirements.

When we make changes, we will update the Last Updated date at the top of this page.

We recommend checking this page periodically for the latest information.
