What this sheet covers

1.1

Cookies are scraps of text a website leaves with your browser and asks for back later. Local storage does much the same job, minus the sending-it-back part. The rules cover both, so this sheet does too, and it prints the name of every entry instead of describing them in the abstract.

1.2

The shop is run by WHATECH MOBILE CO., LIMITED, which answers for what is written to your browser. How personal data is handled more broadly is the business of the Privacy notice.

2.

The four categories

Cookie rules sort everything into four boxes. Here is what each one means and what this particular site keeps in it.

The four categories and what this site puts in them

Category
Strictly necessary
What belongs in it
Entries without which something you asked the site to do cannot work
On this site
Everywhere, three entries: your cookie answer, your order recap and the flag that stops one order being counted twice. On an offer page with an order form, also two entries about the order sent from it (section 3). All of them are read only by this site
Your consent
Not required by law
Category
Preferences
What belongs in it
Entries that remember a setting you chose, so the site looks the way you left it
On this site
One entry: whether you last read the aisles as a list or as a grid
Your consent
Not required: you set it yourself, in your own browser
Category
Statistics
What belongs in it
Tools that count visits and measure how pages are used
On this site
Nothing is set for statistics. This shop runs no analytics product, no visit counter and no heatmap
Your consent
Nothing to consent to here; the statistics switch on the strip only sets a Google permission (section 5)
Category
Advertising
What belongs in it
Tags that connect an advert to a visit and to an order
On this site
The tags listed in section 4, which write no cookie before you agree, and one flag on the thank-you page of an offer page (section 3)
Your consent
Required for the cookies, and asked for before any is written; the flag is explained in section 3

2.1

There is no fifth kind. No chat widget, no session recorder, no heatmap, no embedded video player and no social button: fonts, icons and images are all served from this site’s own address. Opening a page does contact Google, whose tag loads on every page in the restricted state described in section 5. Beyond that, nothing outside this site is contacted without a yes from you on the strip.

3.

Every key this site writes, by name

These live in your browser’s local storage, under this site’s address only. They are not sent to our server with page requests, and another website cannot read them from its own pages, because browsers keep each site’s storage apart. Three of them are written only on the offer pages. Local storage has no built-in expiry date, so the “how long” column says what actually removes each one.

Local storage entries written by this site

Name
odn.cookie-choice
Category
Strictly necessary
What it is for
What you told the strip: a yes or a no for advertising, the same for statistics, and the moment you said it. Without this entry the question would stand in front of every page you opened.
How long it stays
12 months from the answer, then it counts as expired and the question is asked again
Name
odn.ticket
Category
Strictly necessary
What it is for
A recap of the last order placed from this browser, written only once the order was accepted: ticket number, item, quantity, total, first name, phone number and country. The confirmation page reads it back to you.
How long it stays
Until you clear the site’s data, or until the next order overwrites it
Name
odn.ticket-sent.<number>
Category
Strictly necessary
What it is for
A one-character flag marking an order as already counted, so that reloading the confirmation page cannot report the same sale twice.
How long it stays
Until you clear the site’s data
Name
odn_lead_<language>_<product>
Category
Strictly necessary
What it is for
Saved on an offer page after its order form is accepted: your name, phone and address as you typed them. The thank-you page uses them to print the phone that our call centre is going to ring.
How long it stays
Until the same product is ordered again from this browser, which overwrites it, or until you clear the site’s data
Name
odn_lead_lock_<language>_<product>
Category
Strictly necessary
What it is for
Keeps the closing seven digits of the phone used on that offer page, with a timestamp for every order it sent. Two orders per product in a day is the ceiling for one phone; timestamps over a day old stop counting.
How long it stays
Until you clear the site’s data; the next accepted order for that product rewrites it
Name
odn.view
Category
Preferences
What it is for
Whether you last looked at the aisles as a list of rows or as a grid of tiles.
How long it stays
Until you clear the site’s data or switch the view back
Name
odn_conv_<language>_<product>_<time>
Category
Advertising
What it is for
The figure 1, stored on the thank-you page of an offer page once Google Ads has been told about that order; a reload finds the flag and stays silent. The report itself follows the Consent Mode rules of section 5; the flag is written whatever your answer on the strip, and it holds no name, number or address.
How long it stays
Until you clear the site’s data

3.1

The order ticket and the desk form are protected by a security token with a short life. It is fetched when the form opens, kept in the page’s memory and sent back with your entries; it is never stored as a cookie and it disappears with the page.

3.2

Staff who sign in to the back office receive a login cookie. No visitor and no customer is ever given one.

4.

Advertising tags

Adverts for this shop run on Google Ads, from accounts opened in the name of WHATECH MOBILE CO., LIMITED and paid for by it. Nothing here writes a cookie before you have agreed to the advertising category.

The advertising tag in use and its cookies

Tag and provider
Google Ads tag. Google Ireland Limited, Dublin, with Google LLC, USA
Status
Loaded, restricted until you agree
Cookies
_gcl_au, _gcl_aw on this site; IDE, test_cookie on Google’s own doubleclick.net address
Typical lifetime
90 days for the _gcl pair; up to 13 months for IDE; 15 minutes for test_cookie

4.1

What a live tag would record. That a browser which saw or clicked one of our adverts came to the site, which pages it opened, and whether an order was placed, with its value and ticket reference. What never goes to Google: the name on the order, where it is being delivered, the telephone number and any email address.

4.2

How the Google tag behaves before and after you agree is set out in section 5. No other advertising tag runs on this site.

4.3

Google may process this data in the United States and put it to its own uses as well. The basis for that transfer is in the Privacy notice, section 8. The lifetimes above are the ones Google publishes at the date of this revision; it sets them, not us. Provider: Google Ireland Limited, Dublin — privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy.

5.

Google Consent Mode v2

5.1

The Google tag on this site is wired for Consent Mode v2. The very first instruction the page gives it sets four permissions to denied — analytics_storage for the statistics side, and ad_personalization, ad_user_data and ad_storage for the advertising side — and only your answer on the strip may loosen any of them.

5.2

Held in that state the tag is restricted: it writes no advertising cookie, reads none, and sends no advertising identifier. Signals it does send are redacted of that identifier and are used by Google for aggregate, modelled reporting rather than for recognising you.

5.3

Accepting flips the matching permissions to granted for that browser, and only then may the cookies in section 4 be written. Withdrawing sets them back to denied at once, for every page you open afterwards.

5.4

The “statistics” switch on the strip does little: no analytics tool is installed, so all it sets is analytics_storage. Nothing else of that kind can begin without your say-so.

6.

Your answer, and changing it

6.1

On a first visit a strip across the bottom of the page puts the question, with three buttons of the same size: accept, reject, or choose. Nothing optional is ticked in advance, refusing takes one press, and the shop works identically whichever you pick.

6.2

An answer stands for 12 months. After that it is treated as expired, the strip returns and you are asked again, which is also how a site is meant to behave when nothing has been re-confirmed for a year.

6.3

To change it sooner, use “Cookie settings” in the footer of any page: it reopens the strip with whatever you said last time already filled in. What you choose there takes hold on the next page you open.

6.4

Withdrawing stops the tags writing or reading advertising cookies. It does not sweep up cookies already on your machine: remove those in your browser settings, under the entry for this site. The same settings let you block cookies and storage outright — the shop still works, but the cookie question will greet you on every page and the confirmation page will have no recap to show.

6.5

Advert personalisation can also be turned down in your Google account settings. That switch belongs to Google and covers every site you visit, this one included.

Changes to this sheet

7.1

Add, rename or drop a storage entry or a tag and this sheet is updated before the change reaches the site, with the revision date in the header moved. Where a change needs your permission, the question is put again rather than assumed.
