What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit our website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide useful information to site owners.

How KuKu Uses Cookies

At KuKu Play Systems (https://kuku.ie), we use cookies to ensure our online store functions smoothly, to keep track of items in your cart, to process secure payments, and to improve your browsing experience.

Types of Cookies We Use

• Essential / Necessary Cookies: These cookies are crucial for the basic operation of our online shop. They allow you to add products to your shopping cart, proceed through checkout, and log into your customer account.

• Payment Processing Cookies: We use Stripe to process payments securely. Stripe sets cookies to detect and prevent fraud, as well as ensure secure transaction processing during checkout.

• Functional Cookies: These enable the website to remember choices you make (such as your account preferences or screen display settings) so you don't have to re-enter details every time.

• Third-Party & Analytics Cookies: Embedded content or external tools on our site (such as embedded video players or social media links) may set their own cookies to monitor usage and performance.

WooCommerce & Default Site Cookies

• Shopping Cart Cookies: WooCommerce uses cookies to keep track of cart data (e.g., woocommerce_items_in_cart, woocommerce_cart_hash). These contain no personal information and expire when you close your browser or after the session ends.

• Session Cookies: wp_woocommerce_session_ contains a unique code for each customer so that WooCommerce knows where to find the cart data in the database. Expires after 2 days.

• Login Cookies: When you log in, temporary cookies store your authentication details (wordpress_logged_in_). These last for 2 days (or 14 days if you select "Remember Me").

• Cookie Consent / Preference Cookies: If you accept or dismiss notices on our site, a cookie is saved to remember your preference for 1 year.

Managing & Disabling Cookies

You can choose to accept or decline cookies through your browser settings. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your settings to block them.

Please note: Disabling essential WooCommerce cookies will prevent the shopping cart and checkout process from working properly.
