This page explains how Westwired and the services used to operate the website may use cookies and similar technologies, what they are used for, and the choices available to you.
COOKIES & ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS
The basics
01
What cookies are
Cookies are small pieces of data that a website can store on your device. Similar technologies may also be used to remember information, support website functions or understand how the site is used.
Some cookies last only for a browsing session, while others may remain for a set period or until you remove them.
02
Strictly necessary cookies
Some cookies are needed for the website and online store to function properly. They can support features such as security, checkout, shopping-basket functions and remembering choices that are necessary to provide a service you request.
Where a cookie is strictly necessary for a service you have asked for, consent is not normally required.
03
Cookie preferences
Where non-essential cookies are used, the website should give you an appropriate choice before they are placed or used, except where the law allows otherwise.
You can use the cookie or privacy controls made available on the site to review or change your preferences.
ANALYTICS, MARKETING & THIRD PARTIES
Optional technologies
01
Analytics cookies
Analytics technologies can help Westwired understand how visitors use the website — for example, which pages are viewed, how visitors move through the site and whether features are working as expected.
Where analytics cookies are not strictly necessary, they should only be used after the required consent has been obtained.
02
Marketing cookies
Marketing or advertising technologies may be used to measure campaigns, understand whether advertising is effective, or support more relevant advertising on other services.
These cookies or similar technologies should not be used unless you have made an appropriate choice where consent is required.
03
Third-party services
Some website functions may be provided by third parties, such as Shopify, payment services, analytics providers, social platforms or embedded content services. Those providers may use their own cookies or similar technologies.
The exact third parties involved will depend on the services and apps enabled on the live Westwired store.
YOUR COOKIE CHOICES
Manage your preferences
01
Use the site controls
Where the Westwired website offers a cookie banner or privacy-preference control, you can use it to accept, reject or review non-essential cookie choices.
If a preference-management link is available later, you can use it to revisit those choices without needing to clear all browser data.
02
Change your browser settings
Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through their privacy or security settings. The exact steps depend on the browser and device you use.
Blocking some cookies may affect how parts of the website work, particularly functions that rely on strictly necessary cookies.
03
Withdraw or update consent
Where processing depends on your consent, you can change your mind and withdraw that consent for future use of the relevant non-essential cookies or similar technologies.
Changing your preference does not affect processing that was lawful before the change.
COOKIE QUESTIONS
Need help with your choices?

This policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes to the website, the services or apps in use, or applicable legal requirements.
