Cookie Policy
Last updated: 25 September 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Cont.tech (“we”, “us”) uses cookies and similar technologies on conttech.co. It should be read with our Privacy Policy.
We designed this notice to meet the disclosure expectations of the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) under PECR and UK GDPR: what we use, why, who is involved, how long it lasts, and how you can control it.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels, and scripts that read or store information on your device. For simplicity, we call all of these “cookies” in this policy unless we need to be more specific.
Who we are
Cont.tech operates conttech.co from Kuwait.

How we use cookies
We use cookies to:
- run the storefront securely (cart, login, checkout, session)
- remember your cookie choices
- understand how the site is used so we can improve it (only where allowed)
We do not sell personal data collected through cookies.
Types of cookies we use
1. Strictly necessary cookies
These are required for the website to work. Under PECR they can be used without consent when they are essential to provide a service you request (for example signing in or completing a purchase).
- _secure_session_id / session — Keeps your browsing session secure. Shopify. Session.
- cart / cart_sig / cart_ts — Remembers cart items and protects checkout. Shopify. Up to 14 days.
- _shopify_y / _shopify_s — Storefront identity and session continuity. Shopify. Session to 1 year.
- secure_customer_sig — Customer account login state. Shopify. Up to 1 year.
- Cookie consent preference — Stores accept/decline for non-essential cookies. Cont.tech. Up to 1 year.
2. Preference cookies
These remember choices you make (for example language or cookie banner decisions) so the site behaves consistently on return visits.
3. Analytics cookies
These help us understand visits, popular pages, and technical issues. Where analytics are not strictly necessary, we only set them after you give consent through our cookie banner (where shown). Analytics may be provided by Shopify or other tools we enable in Admin.
If we enable Google Analytics or similar tools later, we will update this section and ask for consent before those cookies run.
4. Marketing cookies
We do not currently use advertising or remarketing cookies on conttech.co. If that changes, we will update this policy and obtain consent before setting them.
First-party and third-party cookies
First-party cookies are set by conttech.co. Third-party cookies are set by other domains (for example Shopify’s platform services). We cannot fully control third-party cookies; their providers process data under their own policies.
Shopify’s platform privacy information: shopify.com/legal/privacy.
Consent
Where consent is required for non-essential cookies:
- we ask before those cookies are set
- continuing to browse alone is not treated as consent
- you can accept or decline via the cookie banner
- you can withdraw consent at any time as easily as you gave it (clear site cookies / reset banner preference, or contact us)
How to manage or delete cookies
You can control cookies through our cookie banner (when shown) and your browser settings (block, delete, or alert on cookies).
If you block strictly necessary cookies, parts of the site (cart, login, checkout) may not work.
Updates
We may update this Cookie Policy when our technologies or legal requirements change. The “Last updated” date at the top shows the latest version.
