What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored in your browser. We also use local storage for some preferences on your device. Together, these technologies help the site remember you, keep you signed in, and improve your experience.
How it works on MAKCODE
- On your first visit, a banner asks you to Accept all or choose Essential only.
- Essential cookies always run—they are required for security, sign-in, live chat identity, and promo codes at checkout. We do not ask you to turn these off.
- If you accept all, we may use preferences storage (cart, chat resume, sound settings) and send anonymous usage statistics (for example product views) to improve the store.
- If you choose essential only, the site still works, but your cart may not persist after you close the tab, chat may not resume after a refresh, and we will not record optional analytics events.
- You can change your mind anytime using the controls below or by clearing site data in your browser.
Categories
- Essential — Required for the site to function (authentication, chat visitor id, checkout helpers, consent record).
- Preferences — Optional convenience (saved cart, chat session resume, notification sounds). Only used if you accept all or enable preferences.
- Analytics — Anonymous events such as product views and add-to-cart signals sent to our server. No third-party ad cookies. Only used if you accept all.
