Arctis Haven
Cookie Policy
Effective date: 7 September 2026
5.1 About cookies
Cookies and similar storage technologies allow websites to store or access information on a user's device.
Some technologies are necessary for a website to provide a service requested by the user. Others may be used for analytics, preferences, advertising or other purposes and may require consent.
5.2 Strictly necessary technologies
Arctis Haven may use strictly necessary technologies for functions such as:
- maintaining a shopping basket;
- checkout and transaction security;
- fraud prevention;
- load balancing;
- maintaining essential session state; and
- recording privacy or cookie choices.
Where a technology is strictly necessary to provide a service requested by the user, consent may not be required, although we will still provide appropriate information about its use.
5.3 Non-essential technologies
Where we use non-essential analytics, advertising or similar technologies that require consent, they should remain disabled until the user has made the required choice.
Users should be able to reject non-essential technologies as easily as they can accept them and should be able to change their preference later.
5.4 Current cookie categories
The website may present cookie controls using categories such as:
Necessary
Required for core website, basket, checkout, security or consent-management functions.
Analytics
Used, where enabled and lawfully permitted, to understand website performance and how visitors interact with the site.
Marketing
Used, where enabled and lawfully permitted, for advertising, campaign measurement or related marketing purposes.
Preferences
Used, where applicable, to remember optional settings that are not strictly necessary.
5.5 Third parties
Some website functions may involve third-party service providers. Where their non-essential storage or access technologies require consent, they should not be activated until the required consent has been given.
The live cookie-management interface should identify relevant third parties and purposes with sufficient specificity.
5.6 Managing choices
Where consent is the basis for a cookie or similar technology, users can withdraw or change that consent through the website's cookie controls.
Browser settings can also be used to remove or block cookies, although blocking necessary technologies may prevent parts of the website from working correctly.
5.7 Live cookie inventory
Website implementation requirement: before this policy is published as final, Arctis Haven should run a live cookie/storage audit and populate the site's cookie preference interface or cookie table with the actual technologies in use, including where applicable:
- name/provider;
- purpose;
- category;
- first- or third-party status; and
- duration.
This policy intentionally does not invent cookie names or durations that have not been technically verified.
5.8 Changes
We may update this Cookie Policy when technologies, providers or legal requirements change.
