What Happens If I Disable Cookies?

If you choose to disable cookies, your experience on our website may be limited. Certain features and services rely on cookies to function properly, including remembering your shopping basket, displaying relevant products, and helping us identify and resolve technical issues.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer, tablet, or mobile device when you visit a website.

At Austen & White, cookies help us:

  • Remember items added to your shopping basket.
  • Recognise returning visitors.

Can I Enable "Do Not Track" (DNT)?

Some web browsers include a Do Not Track (DNT) feature that sends a request to websites asking not to track your browsing activity.

Where available, you can also manage your tracking and analytics preferences through our cookie settings.

Please note that there is currently no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT requests. As a result, our website does not currently respond to DNT browser signals, although we continue to monitor developments in privacy technologies and legislation.
