Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. We also use similar browser storage technologies, such as localStorage, to remember certain preferences and support essential site functions.

We group cookies and similar technologies into the following categories:

• Essential — required for core website functions such as basket and checkout.
• Analytics — optional cookies that would help us understand website usage if enabled in future.

Essential technologies are always enabled because they are necessary for the website to function properly. These include:

• Basket storage (localStorage key: chadha-basket-v1) — remembers items in your basket while you shop.
• Checkout form storage (sessionStorage key: chadha-checkout-form-v1) — temporarily stores checkout details during your session.
• Cookie consent preferences (localStorage key: ctg-cookie-consent-v1) — remembers your cookie choices.

These technologies do not require optional consent because they are strictly necessary to provide the shopping and checkout service you request.

Our cookie banner includes an Analytics option so you can choose whether to allow optional analytics cookies. At present, analytics functionality is not connected on this website. No third-party analytics tools such as Google Analytics or Meta Pixel are currently installed.

If analytics are enabled in future, they will only run after you have given consent through the cookie banner. Until then, rejecting non-essential cookies has no practical effect beyond recording your preference.

When you first visit the website, a cookie consent banner is displayed. You can:

• Accept All — enables essential cookies and optional analytics consent.
• Reject Non-Essential — keeps essential cookies only and records analytics as disabled.
• Manage Cookies — choose your preferences, including the analytics toggle.

Closing the banner with the “X” button hides it for your current browser session only. It does not save a permanent consent choice.

You can update your cookie preferences at any time using the button below, which opens the same preference panel used by our cookie banner.

You can also clear cookies and site data through your browser settings. Clearing essential storage may reset your basket or checkout progress.

Your cookie consent choice is stored in your browser under the key ctg-cookie-consent-v1 until you change it or clear your browser storage. The stored record includes whether analytics consent was granted and the date your choice was saved.

Some third-party services used by the website may set their own cookies or similar technologies when you interact with them. For example:

• Stripe — when you complete payment through Stripe Checkout.
• Vercel — hosting and content delivery infrastructure for the website.

These providers are used to deliver payment and hosting services. Their use of cookies and personal data is governed by their own policies.
