Cookie Policy
Last updated: 1 October 2026
1. About this policy
This Cookie Policy explains how Kneecap Drinks Ltd uses or may use cookies, pixels and similar technologies on www.kneecapdrinks.com.
It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
Our Website is developing and the technologies used may change as we introduce new functionality.
2. What are cookies?
Cookies are small pieces of information stored on a user’s device when a website is visited.
Similar technologies can include pixels, tags, local storage, software development kits and other technologies capable of storing information on, or accessing information from, a device.
For simplicity, this policy refers to these technologies collectively as “cookies” unless the context requires otherwise.
3. Strictly necessary cookies
Some cookies are necessary for the Website to operate properly or securely.
They may be used for functions such as Website security, network management, remembering privacy choices, maintaining sessions or, if introduced later, operating shopping-basket and checkout functions.
Where a cookie is genuinely strictly necessary to provide a service requested by the user, consent may not be required.
We will not use the “strictly necessary” category simply because a technology is commercially useful to us.
4. Analytics cookies
We may use analytics technologies, potentially including services such as Google Analytics, to understand how visitors use the Website.
Analytics information can help us understand matters such as visitor numbers, traffic sources, popular pages, approximate geographic patterns and Website performance.
Where consent is required, analytics cookies will not be activated until the visitor has given the relevant consent.
5. Advertising and marketing technologies
We may use advertising and measurement technologies associated with platforms such as Meta/Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Google or other advertising services.
These technologies may help us measure campaigns, understand whether advertisements lead to Website visits, build advertising audiences or show more relevant advertising.
Where the law requires consent, these technologies will remain disabled until the visitor has consented.
6. Email marketing technologies
Communications sent through services such as Brevo or Mailchimp may contain technologies that allow us to understand whether a message has been delivered, opened or interacted with.
We use marketing information subject to applicable data-protection and electronic-marketing requirements.
You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time.
7. Functional and embedded-content cookies
We may use technologies required to provide optional Website features, such as embedded video, maps, social-media content, forms, campaign tools or other integrations.
Third-party embedded services may set their own cookies.
Where those cookies are not strictly necessary and consent is required, the relevant feature or tracking technology will be controlled through our consent mechanism.
8. Future checkout and payment facilities
If online purchasing is introduced, cookies may be required to maintain a shopping basket, secure checkout or payment session.
Payment providers such as Stripe may also use technologies required for security, fraud prevention and payment processing.
Any consumer alcohol checkout will only be introduced when the necessary licensing, age-verification and other legal arrangements are in place.
9. Crowdfunding and campaign platforms
If we operate a crowdfunding, competition, event or promotional campaign using a third-party platform, that platform may use its own cookies and similar technologies.
Its own cookie and privacy information will apply to activity taking place on its service.
10. Your choices
When required, our Website will provide a consent mechanism allowing visitors to accept or reject non-essential cookies.
You may change or withdraw cookie choices using the cookie settings facility made available on the Website.
Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing that occurred before consent was withdrawn.
You can also control cookies through your browser or device settings, although blocking some strictly necessary technologies may prevent parts of a Website from operating properly.
11. Exact cookies in use
Because the Website is being developed, the exact cookies and technologies may change as services are added or removed.
Our live cookie consent tool should provide the current details of non-essential technologies in use, including their provider, purpose and duration where applicable.
We will not intentionally activate new non-essential analytics or advertising technologies without updating the consent configuration as required.
12. Third parties
Third-party technology providers may process information under their own privacy and cookie policies.
Depending on which Website functions are activated, relevant providers may include Google, Meta, TikTok, Brevo, Mailchimp, Stripe, hosting providers, social-media platforms and other Website technology suppliers.
References to these providers in this policy do not mean that every service is necessarily active on the Website at all times.
13. Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when Website technology changes or when legal requirements change.
The latest version will be displayed on the Website with its revision date.
