Cookie Policy

1. About Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow a website to remember certain information between pages and between visits.

On LITTLE PERSONS BABY, cookies can help with everyday website functions such as keeping products in your basket, remembering selected settings and making pages work as expected.

Some cookies are placed directly by our website, while others may be set by services that help us operate particular website features.

2. How We Use Cookies

We use cookies for a limited number of practical purposes. Depending on the website feature involved, they may be used to:

• Keep products in your shopping basket while you browse.
• Remember selected website settings.
• Help pages load and function correctly.
• Keep certain website features working between page visits.
• Understand general website usage and improve page performance.
• Help us identify technical problems with the website.

We do not use cookies simply for the sake of collecting information. Each cookie should have a practical purpose connected with the operation, improvement or administration of the website.

3. Types of Cookies

The cookies used on the website can generally be grouped into the following categories.

4. Essential Cookies

Some cookies are necessary for the website to operate. They may be used to maintain a shopping session, remember products placed in a basket or support the steps needed to complete an order.

These cookies are normally active only for the period needed for the relevant website function. Session-based cookies may disappear when you close your browser, while some necessary cookies may remain for a limited period so the website can recognise your session on a later page visit.

Essential cookies are normally retained for no longer than 12 months, unless a shorter period is sufficient for the particular function.

5. Preference Cookies

Preference cookies allow the website to remember choices that make browsing more convenient.

For example, a preference may be remembered so that a setting does not need to be selected again during the same browsing session.

Preference cookies may remain on your device for up to 12 months. You can remove them earlier through your browser settings.

6. Performance Cookies

Performance cookies may help us understand how visitors use the website. The information is generally used to look at overall website activity rather than to identify individual customers.

This can help us see which pages are useful, identify pages that need improvement and make the website easier to browse.

Performance-related information is normally retained for up to 12 months, depending on the particular service and its settings.

7. How Long Cookies Stay

Cookies can be either temporary or longer-lasting.

Actual cookie duration can vary depending on the particular cookie, its purpose and the service that sets it. Where a shorter period is sufficient, the cookie may expire earlier.

8. Third-Party Services

Some parts of the website may rely on external services to provide specific functions. Those services may place their own cookies or similar technologies on your device.

This can include services used for payment processing, website functionality, security, hosting, delivery-related features or general website performance.

Any third-party cookies are controlled according to the relevant service’s own settings and policies. Their retention periods may therefore differ from the periods described for cookies set directly by our website.

9. Browser Settings

Most modern browsers allow you to view, remove or block cookies through their settings.

You can normally find these controls under your browser’s privacy, security or website settings. You can also choose to delete cookies that have already been stored on your device.

Please remember that blocking all cookies can affect website functions. In particular, shopping basket, account or checkout features may not work correctly if essential cookies are disabled.

10. Managing Cookies

You can manage cookies in several ways:

• Allow cookies through your normal browser settings.
• Delete existing cookies from your device.
• Block selected types of cookies where your browser allows this.
• Block all cookies if you prefer, although some website functions may then be unavailable.

If you continue to use the website with cookies enabled, the relevant cookies may be placed on your device according to their purpose and settings.

11. Policy Changes

We may update this Cookie Policy when the website changes, when different website services are introduced or when the way cookies are used needs to be updated.

Any revised version will be published on this page and will apply from the time it is made available.

If a change affects the way cookies are used in a meaningful way, the information on this page will be updated so that the current arrangements remain clear.

12. Cookie Disclaimer

Cookie behaviour can vary between browsers, devices and the external services used to support particular website functions. For this reason, the examples and time periods in this policy describe the normal arrangements rather than guaranteeing that every device will store or remove a cookie at exactly the same time.

We take reasonable steps to keep the information in this policy accurate and to review the cookies used on the website when changes are made. Where an external service changes its own cookie settings, its actual cookie duration may differ from the general periods described here.

Nothing in this Cookie Policy removes or limits any rights that cannot be excluded under applicable UK law.

13. Contact Us

If you have any questions about cookies or how the website uses information, please contact us directly.

We normally reply to website and policy enquiries within 1–2 working days.
