What the site stores

• Shortlist (thinning-shortlist-v1, in your browser’s local storage): keeps the exact options and quantities you save until you transfer them to the cart. It holds no name, email, address or payment details.
• Checkout session cookie (__Host-scissor_physical_payment): links your browser to your cart and checkout. It is secure and HttpOnly, and lasts up to 30 days.
• Checkout quote (physical_quote_thinningscissors, in your browser’s session storage): remembers the delivery quote shown at checkout while that tab stays open.

Other services

• PayPal may set its own cookies in the PayPal payment window.
• The site’s pages load no fonts or scripts from other services.
