What are cookies?

Cookies are small files saved to the hard drive of your computer or device.  They track, save and store information about your interactions and usage of the website.  If a cookie can be used to identify you, it constitutes personal data and is therefore subject to the GDPR.

DPA/GDPR/PECR 2018

DPA/GDPR/PECR requires that we tell you about the cookies we use, explain what the cookies are doing and why; and get your explicit, prior consent to store cookies on your device the first time you visit our website.  We do this through use of a cookie control system – the banner which you will see the first time you visit us.  There is an exception for cookies that are essential to provide an online service at your request (eg to remember what’s in your online basket, or to ensure security in online banking).  We do not need explicit prior consent to use these.

This website complies with the DPA and the GDPR which came into effect in May 2018 and the amended PECR.  Bee Eater Gifts Ltd will update this policy after the completion of the UK’s exit from the European Union.
