This Cookie Policy explains how Kora Strand, operated by Konaya Group Limited ("we", "us", or "our"), uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit korastrand.com (the "Site").

This Cookie Policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy (available at korastrand.com/pages/privacy-policy), which explains how we collect and use personal information more broadly.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They enable the website to recognise your device and store information about your preferences or past actions.

Cookies are either session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. We use both types, as described in Section 3.

Cookies do not usually contain information that directly identifies you. However, personal information that we hold about you may be linked to information stored in or obtained from cookies.

2. Categories of Cookies We Use

We group the cookies used on the Site into four categories.

Strictly Necessary. These cookies are essential for the Site to operate and cannot be switched off. They are set in response to actions you take, such as logging in, adding items to your cart, or completing checkout. These cookies are exempt from the consent requirement under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) because they are strictly necessary to provide the service you have requested.

Functional. These cookies enable enhanced features and personalisation, such as remembering your preferred currency or region. Disabling them may affect how parts of the Site work.

Analytics. These cookies help us understand how visitors use the Site by collecting aggregated information about page views, traffic sources, and user behaviour. This allows us to improve performance and user experience. These cookies require your consent.

Marketing & Advertising. These cookies are placed by our advertising partners (Meta and TikTok) and our marketing platform (Klaviyo). They are used to build a profile of your interests, deliver relevant ads on other platforms, and measure the effectiveness of our campaigns. They may track your activity across multiple websites. These cookies are only placed once you have provided consent via our cookie banner.

5. Your Cookie Choices & Consent

When you first visit the Site, you will be presented with a cookie consent banner allowing you to accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or customise your preferences by category.

You may withdraw or update your consent at any time using the cookie management tool in the footer of our Site.

You can also manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Guidance for major browsers:

Google Chrome — Settings > Privacy and security > Cookies and other site data

Safari — Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data

Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies may affect your ability to browse the Site, add items to your cart, or complete a purchase.

6. Do Not Track

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal indicating a preference not to be tracked across websites. There is currently no universally agreed standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals, and our Site does not alter its behaviour in response to them. You can use our cookie management tool at any time to control which non-essential cookies are placed on your device.

7. Legal Basis for Using Cookies

We operate under UK GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR). Our legal basis for each cookie category is as follows:

Functional, analytics, and marketing cookies are placed on the basis of your consent, collected via our cookie banner. Where we rely on consent, you have the right to withdraw it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of any processing that took place before withdrawal.

8. Updates to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, updates to our technology, or changes in legal requirements. Any updates will be posted on this page with a revised "Last updated" date and "Cookie list last audited" date. We recommend reviewing this page periodically.
