Cookie Policy

The cookies and browser storage the platform uses, what each category is for, and how to control them.

Effective date
4 September 2026
Last updated

Applies to
Unifiedcommerce Hub website, marketplace and expert platform

We use what the site needs to work: staying signed in, keeping your cart, and protecting forms. Optional analytics or marketing technologies run only when an administrator has actually connected them — we do not list tools here that are not in use.

1.What cookies are

Cookies are small text files a site stores in your browser. They let a site recognise your browser between requests, which is how you stay signed in as you move between pages.

This policy also covers similar technologies such as local storage and session storage, which work differently but serve comparable purposes.

2.How we use them

Unifiedcommerce Hub uses cookies and browser storage to keep your session active, remember your cart and checkout progress, hold interface preferences, and protect forms from automated abuse.

We do not use cookies to build advertising profiles.

3.Essential cookies

These are required for the site to function and cannot be switched off through the site, because disabling them breaks signing in and ordering.

  • Authentication and session cookies that keep you signed in to your account, client area, expert dashboard or admin panel
  • Security cookies that protect forms and detect abusive request patterns
  • Load-balancing and routing cookies set by our hosting provider
  • Storage that keeps your cart contents and checkout progress between visits

4.Functional storage

Functional storage remembers preferences so the interface behaves consistently: dismissed notices, interface state and similar choices. Clearing it loses the preference but nothing else.

5.Analytics cookies

Analytics are used only where an administrator has connected an analytics tool to this site. When one is connected, it is named here along with what it measures, and it is used to understand page performance and navigation patterns in aggregate — not to identify individuals.

No third-party analytics is enabled by default.

6.Marketing cookies

No advertising or remarketing cookies are set by default, and we do not share browsing data with advertising networks. If marketing technology is introduced, this section is updated before it goes live and consent is requested where the law requires it.

7.Third-party cookies

Embedded third-party content, such as a video player or an external form, can set its own cookies under its own policy. Where we embed such content, it is visible on the page it appears on.

Outbound links to storefront examples and platform websites take you to sites we do not control; their cookie practices are their own.

8.Managing cookies

Blocking essential cookies will prevent you from signing in, ordering or downloading purchased files.

  • Every major browser lets you view, block and delete cookies in its privacy settings
  • You can block third-party cookies without affecting the essentials this site needs
  • Private or incognito windows clear cookies when the window closes
  • Clearing cookies signs you out and empties a cart that has not been checked out

10.How long cookies last

Session cookies are removed when you close the browser. Persistent cookies, such as the one that keeps you signed in, last for a limited period set by the authentication provider and are refreshed while you keep using the site.

11.Changes to this policy

This page is updated whenever the technologies in use change. The dates at the top identify the current version.

12.Contact information
