1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer or mobile device when you load websites in your browser. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, provide secure browsing sessions, and record user preferences without storing identifying personal history.
2. Categories of Cookies We Use
We deliberately maintain a lean, transparent cookie profile. We classify the technologies operating on toptllypurequest.hair into three operational tiers:
| Cookie / Key | Category | Purpose | Duration | Required? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
purequest_cookie_choice |
Essential | Remembers your consent selection (accept, reject, or preferences) so the cookie banner does not re-appear on every page visit. | 12 Months (localStorage) | Yes |
purequest_sess_token |
Essential | Maintains your stateless navigation session and helps mitigate Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attempts on contact forms. | Session end | Yes |
_pk_ref, _pk_id |
Analytics | Anonymised, first-party analytics that record aggregate page views, browser screen resolutions, and referral domains without cross-site tracking. | Up to 13 Months | No (Opt-in) |
purequest_nav_state |
Functional | Stores client UI state such as preferred font sizing or collapsed navigation accordion states across consecutive page visits. | 6 Months | No (Opt-in) |
3. How Users Can Manage Cookies
You have total control over whether non-essential cookies are placed on your machine:
- Via our Cookie Banner: When you first access the Site, you can click “Reject Non-Essential” to disable all optional analytics and functional cookies immediately.
- Resetting Preferences: You can reset your stored choice at any point by clicking the button below, which purges your saved cookie token and restores the banner prompt.
4. Browser Opt-Out Instructions
Most contemporary desktop and mobile web browsers give you granular control over cookie storage. You can configure your browser to reject third-party cookies, alert you whenever a site attempts to set a cookie, or purge all stored cache files upon closing your browser.
