At Downe Florist, we strive to create a seamless and personalized online shopping experience for all our customers. To make this possible, our website uses cookies, which are small text files that are downloaded and stored on your device when you visit our site. These files help us understand how visitors use our website, remember your preferences, and enhance both functionality and security. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, the types we use, and how you can manage your cookie preferences while enjoying our online flower shop.
Cookies are small digital files that websites save to your computer or mobile device when you visit them. They allow websites to remember your activities and preferences over a period of time, so you do not have to keep re-entering information whenever you return to the site or browse from one page to another. Cookies are essential in improving your experience by remembering, for instance, the items you have placed in your basket, your sign-in details, or your language preferences. They also help site owners understand how visitors interact with the website, so improvements can be made for better service.
Downe Florist uses several types of cookies to improve your shopping journey. Each serves a specific purpose and helps us offer you smooth navigation, relevant content, and tailored promotions. Below are the main categories of cookies we use:
These cookies are necessary for the website to function properly. Without them, certain services—such as remembering what you put in your shopping cart or ensuring secure log-in—cannot be provided. Essential cookies enable features like page navigation and access to secure areas of the site. Our website cannot function properly without these cookies, so they are always enabled.
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors engage with Downe Florist online. By collecting and reporting information anonymously, these cookies let us track website usage and performance. This helps us see which pages are most popular, how customers move around the website, and whether there are areas of the shop we can improve. These insights allow us to continually enhance the online shopping experience for our customers.
Marketing cookies are used to deliver content and advertisements that are more relevant to you and your interests. They may be set by Downe Florist or by third-party providers whose services we have added to the website. These cookies help us manage and measure the effectiveness of our promotional campaigns and display advertisements that are tailored to your browsing habits.
We respect your right to privacy and control over your online experience. On your first visit to Downe Florist's website, you will be presented with a cookie preference banner.

You can usually set your browser to notify you when a cookie is being placed, or to block certain or all cookies if you prefer.
