What a cookie is
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit a website. It lets the site remember your actions between pages — the contents of your basket, your consent choices — and, for some of them, measure how the site is used.
This policy covers cookies and every comparable technology: local storage, pixels and tags. It applies to cartoonandcardoon.com, published by BCXDE LTD, company number 16897014, registered office 71-75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London, WC2H 9JQ, United Kingdom.
Your consent
Under regulation 6 of the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003, cookies that are not strictly necessary for the service you have asked for are placed only with your consent.
On your first visit a banner lets you accept or refuse them. Refusing is exactly as easy as accepting: the two buttons sit side by side, on the same level, and nothing is ticked in advance. No cookie other than the strictly necessary ones is placed before you have chosen. Refusing costs you nothing: the site works, you can browse, order and pay. Your choice is recorded and kept for six months, after which you are asked again. You may change it at any time by clearing the cookies for this site in your browser and reloading the page.
Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent and cannot be refused, because without them the basket, the checkout and the security of your session do not work.
The cookies we use
| Category | What it does | Consent | Retention |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Keeps your session open, holds the contents of your basket, secures the checkout, remembers your cookie choice, protects against fraud and abuse | Not required | From the session to 12 months |
| Preferences | Remembers a display choice, such as the language or the currency shown | Required | 12 months |
| Audience measurement | Counts visits and pages viewed so we can see what is used and what is not | Required | 13 months maximum |
| Advertising | Measures the effect of our advertising campaigns and limits how often an advertisement is shown to the same person | Required | 13 months maximum |
Cookies strictly necessary to the store are set by Shopify, which hosts it. Measurement and advertising cookies are only ever set after you have accepted them.
As at 7 September 2026, no analytics or advertising tool is installed on this site — no Google Analytics, no Meta pixel, no TikTok pixel, no advertising tag of any kind. The measurement and advertising rows above describe what your consent would cover if we add one. The day we do, we will name the tool, its publisher and the lifetime of its cookies on this page, and ask for your consent again.
Managing cookies in your browser
You can also block or delete cookies from your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies will prevent the basket and the checkout from working.

Withdrawing your consent
You can change your mind at any time. Clear the cookies for this site in your browser and reload the page: the banner appears again and your new choice replaces the old one. Your choice is in any case only kept for six months, after which you are asked afresh.
Personal data
Where a cookie allows you to be identified, directly or indirectly, the data it carries is personal data and is processed as set out in our privacy policy. You may complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
