Cookie Policy
Last updated: October 2026
1. Introduction
This website uses cookies and similar technologies to make sure it works properly, to improve your browsing experience, and to help us understand how people use it. For simplicity, we refer to all of these as “cookies”. Some cookies are placed by Sally Pye Abstract Art Ltd, and others by trusted third-party partners who help us run the site.
2. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your computer, tablet or phone when you visit a website. They help the site remember your actions and preferences, so things like your shopping basket and language settings work correctly.
Other related technologies (such as scripts and pixels) can do similar jobs, like measuring how you interact with pages or content.
3. How we use cookies
We use cookies for several reasons:
- Essential cookies: Required for our website to work properly. They enable key features such as your shopping basket, secure checkout and remembering your cookie preferences.
- Analytics cookies: Help us understand how visitors use our website so we can improve navigation, content and performance. These only run with your consent.
- Functional cookies (optional): Improve your experience by remembering preferences like language or region.
We don’t use advertising or tracking cookies for marketing or third-party advertising purposes.
4. Third-party cookies
Our website runs on the Shopify platform, which places cookies needed for the store, checkout and payment process to work securely. We may also use trusted providers such as CookieYes (for cookie management) and Google Analytics (for anonymised site analytics).
In some cases these companies act as independent data controllers, meaning they decide how they process their data. You can find out more in their privacy policies:
5. Managing your cookie preferences
When you first visit our website, you’ll see a pop-up that lets you accept all cookies or manage your preferences. You can change your preferences at any time by reopening the cookie settings (usually available via the cookie icon at the bottom of the page).
Please note that disabling essential cookies may stop some parts of the website from working correctly, including your shopping basket and checkout.
