Cookie Policy
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to the website owner.
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies we use on oculamor.com ("our website"), why we use them, and how you can manage your preferences. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
2. Essential Cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary for our website to function. They cannot be switched off as the website would not work properly without them. They are usually only set in response to actions you take, such as logging in or filling in forms.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| sessionid | Keeps you logged in to your account. Set when you sign in. | 2 weeks |
| csrftoken | Protects against cross-site request forgery attacks. Ensures form submissions originate from our website. | 1 year |
| cf_clearance | Set by Cloudflare Turnstile to verify you are a real person and protect our forms from spam and abuse. | 30 minutes |
| __stripe_mid / __stripe_sid | Set by Stripe to process payments securely and detect fraud. | Session / 1 year |
| oculamor_cookie_consent | Stores your cookie preferences so we remember your choice. | Persistent (localStorage) |
Note: Essential cookies do not require consent under UK GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR). They are always active because our website cannot function without them.
3. Analytics Cookies
We use Vercel Analytics to understand how visitors use our website. Vercel Analytics is designed with privacy in mind and works without cookies. It collects anonymous, aggregated data about page views and web vitals (performance metrics) without tracking individual users or storing personal data.
Because Vercel Analytics does not use cookies or collect personal data, it operates within the "essential" category under UK GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR). It runs on all visits so we can maintain and improve the service, and it cannot be used to identify you.
The "Analytics" option in our consent banner controls optional, cookie-based analytics only. Our cookieless Vercel Analytics is not affected by that setting.
4. Marketing Cookies
With your consent, we use marketing cookies to measure the effectiveness of our advertising. These are only set after you choose to allow marketing cookies in our consent banner — never before.
- Google Ads — conversion measurement for our search advertising (Google's consent mode keeps ad storage disabled until you consent).
- Meta (Facebook/Instagram) Pixel — conversion measurement for our social advertising. Once consented, Meta may set cookies such as
_fbpand_fbc.
You can withdraw consent at any time via the "Cookie Preferences" link in the footer of every page — withdrawal stops these tools immediately and deletes the campaign-attribution record stored in your browser session.
5. How to Manage Cookies
5.1 Our Cookie Banner
When you first visit our website, a cookie consent banner will appear at the bottom of the page. You can:
- Accept All — enables all cookie categories
- Reject All — allows only essential cookies (which are required for the site to work)
- Customise — choose exactly which categories you want to allow
5.2 Changing Your Preferences
You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the "Cookie Preferences" link in the footer of any page on our website. This will reopen the cookie consent banner so you can update your choices.
5.3 Browser Settings
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can usually find these options in your browser's "Preferences", "Settings", or "Privacy" menu. Common options include:
- Viewing and deleting individual cookies
- Blocking third-party cookies
- Blocking all cookies
- Clearing all cookies when you close your browser
Please note that blocking essential cookies may prevent parts of our website from functioning correctly, including login and payment features.
6. Account-Level Privacy Settings
If you have an Oculamor account, you can also manage your data processing consent preferences in your account settings. Account-level settings apply across all devices where you are logged in, while browser-level cookie settings apply only to your current browser.
