Cookie Policy

1. What cookies and similar technologies are

Cookies are small data files placed on a browser or device. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels and identifiers used to remember settings, keep a session secure, measure website performance or understand whether communications are effective.

2. Cookie categories used by Office Stock

Strictly necessary

These support core functions such as security, consent records, customer sessions, cart, checkout, load balancing and fraud prevention. The store cannot operate correctly without them, so they do not depend on optional consent.

Preferences

These remember choices such as currency, display settings or features you have requested. They are used only where enabled and permitted.

Analytics and performance

These help us understand page performance, errors and aggregated visitor journeys. Where consent is required, analytics remain disabled until you choose to allow them.

Marketing

These may measure campaigns or help advertising providers show more relevant messages. Office Stock uses them only after the required consent and does not treat silence as consent.

3. Commerce and technology providers

Cookies may be set by Office Stock or by approved providers involved in commerce, payments, hosting, content management, customer support, security, analytics or embedded media. Providers may change as services are improved. The consent interface presented on the site is the current operational record of optional categories.

4. How to control cookies

• Use the cookie banner or preferences control to accept or reject optional categories.
• Withdraw optional consent at any time; withdrawal does not affect earlier lawful use.
• Use browser settings to block or delete cookies.
• Use unsubscribe links to stop marketing email.

Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent cart, login, checkout or security features from working. Browser deletion may also reset your saved consent choice.

5. Retention, privacy and updates

Session cookies expire when the session ends; persistent cookies remain for the period needed for their purpose or until deleted. We review optional technologies and retention periods periodically. Personal information collected through them is handled under our Privacy Policy and POPIA.
