Cookie Policy
Cookie Policy — last updated 22 August 2026.
This page lists every cookie and browser storage item this website uses, what each one does, and how to refuse the optional ones. It is written from the actual implementation, not from a template.
The short version
We use one strictly necessary cookie, which only exists for logged-in administrators. Everything else is optional and is not set unless you press Accept on the banner. Declining costs you nothing — the whole catalogue works either way.
Cookies we set
| Name | Purpose | Expires | Category |
|---|---|---|---|
bt_session |
Keeps a site administrator signed in. Only ever set after an admin logs in; never set for ordinary visitors. | 8 hours | Strictly necessary |
Third-party cookies
These are set only after you accept on the cookie banner.
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Expires |
|---|---|---|---|
_ga | Google Analytics | Distinguishes visitors so we can count them | 2 years |
_ga_<id> | Google Analytics | Maintains the analytics session | 2 years |
_fbp | Meta Pixel | Advertising measurement. Only present if the Pixel is enabled. | 3 months |
We use Google Consent Mode: before you choose, analytics and advertising storage are set to denied, so nothing is stored. The Meta Pixel script is not loaded at all until consent is given.
Browser storage (not cookies)
These are kept in your browser's local storage. They stay on your device, are never sent to our servers, and are not used for tracking.
| Key | Purpose |
|---|---|
bt_consent | Remembers whether you accepted or declined, so the banner does not reappear |
bt_recently_viewed | The last 8 products you opened, shown back to you on the homepage |
bt_recent_searches | The last 6 search terms, offered as shortcuts in the search box |
Changing your mind
To withdraw consent, clear this site's cookies and browser storage in your browser settings. The banner will appear again on your next visit and you can decline. Clearing storage also removes your recently viewed products and recent searches.
You can block cookies entirely in your browser settings. The catalogue, search, filters and WhatsApp enquiry buttons all work with cookies blocked.
A note on WhatsApp
Tapping an enquiry button hands you over to WhatsApp, which sets its own cookies and is covered by Meta's policies rather than this one.
