COOKIE POLICY + COOKIE SETTINGS

This page explains how cookies work on the Highty website and how you can control them. Highty is a brand of Outwoodcare Limited.

1) WHAT ARE COOKIES?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site function, remember your preferences, and (where enabled) understand how people use the site.

We may also use similar technologies such as pixels and local storage.

2) TYPES OF COOKIES WE USE
We use some or all of the categories below depending on what you consent to:

A) Strictly necessary cookies (always on)
These are required for the website to work (for example shopping basket, checkout, security and session management). You cannot turn these off via our cookie banner because the site may not function properly.

B) Performance / analytics cookies (optional)
These help us understand how visitors use our website (e.g. which pages are most popular) so we can improve it. These cookies are used only if you consent.

C) Functional cookies (optional)
These remember your choices (for example preferences) to provide a smoother experience. These cookies are used only if you consent (where required).

D) Marketing cookies (optional)
These may be used to show relevant adverts and measure advertising performance across platforms. These cookies are used only if you consent.

3) THIRD-PARTY COOKIES
Some cookies may be set by third-party services we use (for example analytics or advertising tools), but only where those tools are enabled and you have given consent where required.

4) COOKIE SETTINGS (HOW TO CONTROL COOKIES)
You can control cookies in three main ways:

A) Cookie banner / cookie settings tool
When you first visit our site, you can choose which optional cookies you allow. You can change your preferences at any time using our Cookie Settings link:
[INSERT LINK TO COOKIE SETTINGS BUTTON/SECTION]
If your theme supports it, add a “Cookie Settings” link in your footer that reopens the banner.

B) Browser settings
Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect the site’s functionality (basket/checkout).

C) Device settings (mobile/tablet)
You can also manage tracking permissions through your device settings.

5) CHANGES TO THIS POLICY
We may update this page from time to time. The “Last updated” date above will reflect changes.
