Detailing the use of cookies on Barbour.com

 

Barbour.com uses cookies, but what are they?

Website cookies are important pieces of information we use to tailor our website exactly to your needs. Cookies are harmless, tiny text files that are stored on your computer when you visit a website. They enable us to remember who you are when you visit us again.

How do they affect me?

Cookies don’t store any sensitive or personal information such as your name or address – we use the coded information gathered from them to help us perform tasks. These tasks include showing you products in your region, allowing you to watch a video or allowing you to connect with social media sites. By using our website, you agree that we can keep cookies in place and help us to remember a little about your viewing preferences, while keeping your personal details protected.

There are three types of cookies:

  • Strictly necessary cookies
  • Performance cookies
  • Functionality cookies

Some of these are ‘third party’ which means that other sites use them to gather information on our behalf – the information below explain further.

Strictly necessary cookies

These are essential to enable you to move around barbour.com and use its features properly. Basic functions such as remembering where you’re located rely on these key cookies.
