1. What Are Cookies and Local Storage?
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Local storage (such as HTML5 localStorage) is a similar client-side technology that allows web applications to store preference data directly within your web browser.
2. How xshegroup Uses Cookies and Storage
Our website maintains a minimal approach to data storage. We do not use third-party invasive ad networks, user-profiling beacons, or behavioral marketing trackers. We use technical storage solely for the following functions:
Essential Preferences Storage
Storage Type: Browser localStorage (Key: xshegroup_cookie_consent)
Purpose: Remembers whether you have acknowledged or dismissed the cookie consent notice so the banner does not repeatedly disrupt your browsing experience.
Duration: Persistent until cleared via your browser settings.
3. Affiliate Link Parameters & Referral Tracking
When you click on our outbound product links to Bayraw (such as bayraw.co.uk/products/large-leather-duffel-bag?clickid=...), our website attaches an affiliate identification parameter (clickid) to the destination URL.
This tracking code tells the merchant's e-commerce platform that the visitor was directed from xshegroup. When you arrive on the merchant site, their own cookies and tracking mechanisms may be activated in accordance with their independent cookie and privacy policies. We do not control or access the cookies set by third-party retailers.
4. How to Control or Remove Cookies
You can control and manage cookies and local storage through your browser settings. Most web browsers allow you to:
- View what cookies and stored data exist on your device and delete them individually or in bulk.
- Block third-party cookies or block all cookies entirely.
- Configure your browser to clear all stored data upon closing the browser window.
Please note that disabling strictly essential browser storage may cause website preferences (such as the consent banner state) to reset on your next visit.
5. Policy Updates & Enquiries
We may update this Cookie Policy periodically to reflect technical or legal requirements. For any queries regarding technical storage or affiliate tracking, please email our team at corrine@xshegroup.com.
