Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently and to provide information to website owners. We also use similar technologies such as localStorage and sessionStorage for the same purposes.
We use cookies and local storage for three purposes, which you can manage through our cookie consent banner:
These are strictly necessary for the website to function. They cannot be disabled.

| ethans-cards-cart | Stores your shopping basket contents | Persistent |
| ethans-cards-cookie-consent | Remembers your cookie preferences | Persistent |
| oauth_state / oauth_verifier | Secure login flow (PKCE authentication) | 5 minutes |
These enhance your experience with personalisation features. You can opt out via our cookie banner.

These are set by external services we use to enhance the website. They are only loaded if you give consent via our cookie banner.
When you first visit our website, a cookie banner will appear allowing you to accept all cookies, choose “Essential Only,” or customise your preferences. You can change your preferences at any time by clearing your browser's local storage for our site, which will cause the banner to reappear.
You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Please note that blocking essential cookies may prevent the website from functioning correctly.
If you have questions about our use of cookies, please contact us at support@ethanscards.co.uk or visit our Privacy Policy for more information about how we handle your data.
