Cookie Policy
Last updated: July 16, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how pawnests.net uses cookies and similar browser storage (such as local storage) when you visit the Store. For how we handle personal data generally, see our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies & local storage?
Cookies are small files a website stores on your device. Local storage is a similar mechanism your browser uses to remember information between visits. We use both mainly to make the Store work.
Essential storage
These are necessary for the Store to function and cannot be switched off in our system:
- Shopping cart — remembers the items you’ve added.
- Currency & preferences — remembers your selected display currency and favourites.
- Sign-in — keeps you logged in to your account during your session.
Most of these are stored in your browser’s local storage rather than as tracking cookies.
Third-party cookies
- Stripe — our payment provider may set cookies to process payments securely and to help detect and prevent fraud.
- Google — if you choose to sign in with Google, Google may set cookies as part of that sign-in.
Advertising & tracking
We do not currently use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. If this changes, we will update this policy and, where required, ask for your consent first.
Managing cookies
You can control or delete cookies and local storage through your browser settings. Please note that blocking essential storage may stop parts of the Store — such as the cart or sign-in — from working.
Changes
We may update this policy from time to time, shown by the “Last updated” date above.
