This Cookie Policy outlines how Curtlina utilizes cookies and similar digital tracking identifiers on our domain, www.curtlina.com. Our data management practices are structured in strict compliance with the United Kingdom Data Protection Act 2018, the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), and the European General Data Protection Regulation (EU GDPR).
1. Corporate Control and Identity
Any information harvested via cookies deployed on this website is monitored and managed exclusively by our registered brand operation:
- Corporate Entity: Curtlina
- Registered Office Facility: 50 Conway Rd, Colwyn Bay, LL29 7LD, United Kingdom
- Official Correspondence: blackout@curtlina.com
2. Explicit Consent-Based Mechanism (Cookie Banner)
We respect consumer data choices and operate a strict opt-in framework for non-essential digital markers:
- User Choice: Visitors to our domain are presented with an explicit Cookie Consent Banner upon arrival. The configuration of this interface allows for full user autonomy and free selection.
- Prior Consent Enforcement: Non-essential cookies, analytic markers, and administrative functional scripts are blocked by default. We will only deploy and operate non-essential cookies after a user actively grants consent by clicking the “Accept” button on our explicit cookie banner interface. Users retain the legal right to alter or withdraw this preference at any time via their web browser configurations.
3. Classification of Deployed Cookies
Our domain utilizes two main classifications of cookies to maintain standard e-commerce functionality:
A. Strictly Necessary Cookies (First-Party)
These cookies are essential for core website navigation, allowing you to access checkout infrastructure, manage items in your temporary selections, and maintain a consistent digital connection. These do not harvest marketing data and cannot be disabled in our systems.
B. Vital Operational Third-Party Cookies (Stripe)
To facilitate transactional verification and financial processing, our website integrates essential external operational infrastructure:
- Provider: Stripe
- Purpose: Stripe deploys necessary third-party cookies during the checkout interaction. These identifiers are utilized strictly for transaction analysis, risk assessment, and anomalous activity tracking to maintain administrative oversight during card validation.
- Access: These markers do not allow our brand access to your raw credit credentials, operating independently under Stripe’s structural regulatory mandates.
4. Cookie Retention Lifespans
In adherence to UK and European privacy guidelines, the retention and storage duration of cookies are restricted to predefined intervals to avoid unnecessary data accumulation:
- Session Cookies: These are transient digital markers designed to manage your active visit (such as holding shopping selections). They are automatically erased from your device the moment you terminate your active browser session.
- Persistent Cookies: These remain on your hardware to facilitate smooth repeat visits. Under our strict compliance framework, persistent cookies carry a capped expiration date and do not remain on user devices for longer than a maximum duration of 12 months from the date of initial consent, unless manually cleared by the user sooner.
