Cookie policy

We explain exactly what is stored in the browser, why it is needed and when optional measurement can start.

Current technical overviewConsent revision 2026-08-28.1, updated 28 August 2026. Optional statistics and marketing storage remains disabled until it is enabled by the operator and permitted by the visitor.

1. How we use cookies and storage

A cookie is a small piece of data stored by the browser. The shop also uses localStorage and sessionStorage. Necessary technologies provide functions requested by the visitor, such as the cart, sign-in, language choice, security and order completion.

Statistics and marketing technologies can start only after optional consent. Refusing them does not restrict shopping or essential shop functions.

2. Necessary and functional storage

We use this storage without optional consent only for the functions described. The session referral code is used solely to apply the relevant code or discount and is not used for behavioural profiling.

3. Optional statistics and marketing storage

These items can be created only after the relevant consent and while the operator-side feature is enabled.

Marketing storage also has a separate technical kill switch. The visitor's consent alone cannot enable it.

4. External services triggered by a specific action

The following services are not general visit measurement. They load only on the page or step where they provide security, delivery or payment.

hCaptcha

At the configurator entrance, hCaptcha checks that the request is not automated. It may process information such as the IP address, interaction time, browser data and user interaction. The provider is Intuition Machines, Inc., which acts as a processor for this service. Privacy · Terms

Packeta / Zásilkovna

The pickup point widget loads only after the customer clicks to choose a pickup point. We store the selected branch for no more than 48 hours so it can be used in the order. Provider information

Comgate a Google Pay

Comgate is used after a payment is selected and confirmed. The Google Pay interface loads only when the customer chooses that supported payment method. SIM Garage does not store full card details. Provider information

5. How to change or withdraw your choice

When optional measurement is enabled, settings can be reopened at any time with the Cookie settings button at the bottom left. Withdrawing is as easy as granting consent. After withdrawal, we delete first-party analytics identifiers and pending analytics events.

We keep consent for no more than 12 months. We remember a refusal for no more than 6 months so that we do not ask on every visit. We ask again after a material change to the purposes or this revision.

Optional statistics and marketing storage is currently disabled on this website.
