Cookies policy
Our privacy policy describes how we collect, store and use information gathered through different services and pages available on this site. It is important that you understand what information we collect and how we use it, as accessing this site implies your acceptance of our privacy policy.
All cookies are stored on your computer with an expiration time. If these expire when you leave the web, they are called session cookies, if however, they have a longer expiry, then they are called persistent cookies.
An example of the use of a session cookie would be where you make an online purchase. A cookie is sent when you select a product for purchase. With this cookie on your computer the web can read it and recognise that you want this product and add it to your shopping cart. Without this cookie the web will not be able to distinguish you from any other visitor. Once the process is complete, the cookie will be deleted from your computer.
An example of a persistent cookie: An online shop that sees that you are interested in one of its products could send a cookie with this data: this visitor is interested in my range of autoflowering seeds, and with the cookie installed, show advertising banners over the following days with information on those types of products.
