Cookie Policy

Last updated 2026-05-19.

1. What are cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to site owners.

2. How we use cookies

We use four categories of cookies, controllable via the Privacy Banner at the bottom of every page on bananarat.com.

3. Categories

Category	Purpose	Examples	Consent required (EU/UK)
Essential	Required for the site to function	Cart, session, CSRF, locale	No — strictly necessary
Analytics	Understand site usage	Google Analytics (consent-gated)	Yes
Marketing	Ad attribution and remarketing	Google Ads, Facebook Pixel	Yes
Preferences	Remember your settings	Locale, currency, banner state	Yes (UK/EU strict)

4. Managing your consent

You can update or withdraw consent at any time:

Click the Privacy Banner at the bottom of any page to re-open consent settings.
EU/UK visitors get the strict-opt-in version: nothing fires until you explicitly grant per-category consent.
Visitors from regions without strict consent rules (e.g., US) get a passive banner with an opt-out option.

You can also block cookies entirely via your browser settings. Note that blocking essential cookies will break some site functionality (cart, login).

5. Detailed cookie list

A complete list of cookies (name, purpose, expiry, provider) is auto-generated by Shopify's Customer Privacy infrastructure. For the live list at any time, click the Privacy Banner → "Cookie details" → view all.

6. Third-party cookies

Some cookies are set by third-party services we use. These third parties have their own privacy policies:

Shopify: shopify.com/legal/cookies
Google: policies.google.com/technologies/cookies
Meta: facebook.com/policies/cookies

7. Do Not Track + Global Privacy Control

We honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal — if your browser sends GPC, non-essential cookies are blocked automatically, no banner interaction required.
