We only use essential cookies — the ones that make the shop work. We do not track you. We do not run analytics. We do not advertise to you elsewhere on the web based on what you've looked at here.
That's why you don't see a big cookie pop-up: under EU law, essential cookies don't require consent.
A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on your device (computer, phone, tablet) when you visit it. Cookies can remember things — like the items in your shopping bag, or the language you chose — so the website works smoothly between page visits.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Session cookie | Keeps your shopping bag and checkout state during your visit | Until you close your browser |
| Language preference | Remembers if you chose EN / NL / ES so we don't ask you again | 30 days |
| CSRF security token | Protects checkout from cross-site forgery attacks | Single page load |
All these cookies are first-party (set by almasereen.com itself) and strictly necessary for the website to function. They contain no personal data and no behavioural profile.
The only third party that may set a cookie during your visit is Stripe, our payment processor, during the checkout step. This is necessary to process your iDEAL or card payment securely. Stripe's privacy and cookie practices are described on stripe.com/privacy.
You can always view, block, or delete cookies through your browser settings. Note that blocking essential cookies may break parts of the shop (for example, your bag will empty between pages).
If we ever add analytics or other cookies that require consent, we will update this policy and show a clear consent banner before any non-essential cookie is placed. The "Last updated" date at the top will reflect the change.
