- What are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on a visitor’s device when they visit a website. Similar technologies may also store or access information on the device to support website functionality and preference settings.
Depending on their purpose, cookies can help a website remember user choices, maintain shopping sessions, understand website usage, or support payment-related functions.
- Types of Cookies We May Use
Subject to applicable consent requirements, Tieandstop may use the following categories of cookies and similar technologies:
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the basic functioning of the website—such as maintaining shopping sessions, processing checkout steps, remembering privacy preferences, or supporting other features explicitly requested by the visitor. Where permitted by law, these cookies may be used without obtaining consent, as the relevant functions would not operate as intended without them.
Preference Cookies
These cookies remember choices such as language or other website preferences. Where consent is required, these cookies are used only after the visitor has indicated their consent via the cookie banner.
Analytics Cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors use our website, such as which pages are visited and whether website features are functioning as intended. Where required by applicable law, analytics cookies will remain inactive until consent is obtained.
Third-party cookies related to payments
Payment processing services on our website are provided by Stripe. Stripe may use cookies or similar technologies when processing payments, monitoring for fraud, assessing transactions, and performing related payment functions, subject to specific configurations and Stripe’s own privacy policy.
If the use of Stripe-related cookies or similar technologies requires consent, such technologies will not be used until the visitor provides the necessary consent. Where permitted by applicable law, technologies classified as “strictly necessary” for payment services explicitly requested by the customer may be treated differently.
- Cookie banner and consent options
When visitors access our website, a cookie banner provides information about cookie usage and allows visitors to make choices.
Where applicable law requires consent, non-essential cookies are used only after the visitor selects “Accept” on the cookie banner. Merely visiting or continuing to browse the website does not constitute consent to the use of non-essential cookies.
Where options are provided, visitors may choose to reject non-essential cookies. Rejecting such cookies will not prevent visitors from using website features that do not rely on them, although certain optional features may not function as intended.
Where preference settings are available, visitors may change or withdraw their consent at any time. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of data processing activities carried out prior to the withdrawal.
Our cookie banner and associated control mechanisms are designed to reflect visitors’ choices and the requirements of applicable law.
- Cookie Retention Periods
Cookies can be categorized as session-based or persistent:
Session-based cookies: Typically deleted when the visitor closes their browser.
Persistent cookies: Remain on the device until a specified expiration date or until deleted by the visitor, depending on their function and configuration.
Tieandstop retains cookies and related information only for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes of their use. The following outlines our expected retention periods, subject to actual cookie configurations and any shorter periods mandated by law.
| Cookie Category | Expected Retention Period |
|---|---|
| Strictly necessary session cookies | Upon the end of the browser session |
| Shopping session and checkout cookies | Typically upon the end of the session or expiration of the relevant checkout session (generally within 24 hours) |
| Cookie consent preference records | Up to 6 months (after which the visitor is asked to confirm their choice again), or sooner if required |
| Preference settings cookies | Up to 12 months |
| Analytics cookies | Up to 13 months (where applicable and permitted) |
| Stripe-related cookies or similar technologies | Based on the function of the specific cookie and applicable Stripe configuration; session cookies may expire at the end of the session, while persistent cookies remain until their specified expiration date |
The periods mentioned above do not imply that every category of cookie is active during every visit. The cookies actually used depend on the website features and related services that are enabled.
In accordance with relevant European regulations, consent must be re-obtained where required by applicable law or depending on the nature of the cookie. The retention period of a cookie does not, in itself, constitute legal authorization for the use of that cookie.
- Third-Party Cookies and Stripe
Our checkout process utilizes Stripe for payment processing. Stripe may process information via cookies or similar technologies when handling payment-related functions.
Processing activities carried out by Stripe are subject to applicable Terms of Service and Stripe’s Privacy Policy. Depending on the specific activity, Stripe may process certain information on behalf of Tieandstop or act as an independent controller for specific processing activities.
Tieandstop does not consider Stripe to be a business partner. Stripe is mentioned here solely in its capacity as a payment service provider. For more information on how Stripe handles data, visitors may consult the privacy information provided by Stripe during the payment process or on its official website.
- Personal Information and Data Protection
Cookies may collect information such as device identifiers, browser details, session information, consent preferences, and interactions with website functionality. Where such information constitutes personal data, Tieandstop will process it in accordance with applicable data protection requirements.
We use information obtained via cookies only for relevant purposes, such as: operating the website, remembering set preferences, understanding website usage (subject to consent), supporting checkout functionality, and fulfilling applicable legal obligations.
For further details regarding personal information—including its use, retention, and applicable individual rights—please read our Privacy Policy at www.tieandstop.com.
- Managing Cookies via the Browser
Most browsers allow visitors to view, delete, or restrict cookies through their settings. Visitors can also configure their browsers to receive notifications when cookies are placed.
Blocking all cookies may affect the website’s basic functionality, including shopping sessions and the checkout process. Where consent is legally required, browser controls do not replace the cookie consent options we provide on the website.

Depending on the applicable laws in your location and the specific data processing activities involved, you may have certain rights regarding your personal data. These include the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict specific processing activities, as well as the right to withdraw your consent where processing is based on consent.
