Where appropriate, customers should review the privacy and cookie information of the relevant third-party provider for further details.

6. MANAGING AND CONTROLLING COOKIES

You may have several options to manage cookies and similar technologies.

Website Cookie Preferences

Where cookie preference or consent-management functionality is available on our website, you may use the available controls to review, accept, reject, modify, or withdraw preferences relating to non-essential cookies.

Depending on the available settings, you may be able to:

  • Accept all cookies.
  • Reject non-essential cookies.
  • Manage individual cookie categories.

  • Withdraw consent where applicable.

Your preferences may be stored through cookies or similar technologies so that the website can remember your choices.

Browser Controls

Most modern browsers allow you to:

  • View stored cookies.
  • Delete cookies.
  • Block cookies.
  • Restrict certain cookies.
  • Block third-party cookies.
  • Receive notifications before cookies are stored.
  • Clear browsing and site data.

The exact controls available depend on your browser and device.

Disabling or blocking certain cookies may affect the availability, functionality, security, or performance of parts of the website.

Depending on the cookies disabled, you may experience:

  • Reduced website functionality.
  • Interrupted shopping cart operations.
  • Difficulty completing purchases.
  • Repeated preference selections.
  • Limited personalisation features.
  • Login or account access issues, where applicable.
  • Reduced website performance.
  • Certain features or services becoming unavailable.

Essential technologies may be necessary for the proper operation and security of the website.

Withdrawal of Consent

Where consent is the applicable legal basis for non-essential cookies, you may withdraw your consent at any time through the available cookie preference controls or other mechanisms provided by us.

Withdrawal of consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before such withdrawal.

Multiple Devices and Browsers

Cookie preferences are generally stored on the specific browser and device through which they are selected.

If you access the S2F SIGNATURE website using multiple devices or different web browsers, you may need to review and manage your cookie preferences separately for each browser and device.

7. DO NOT TRACK (DNT)

Certain web browsers and devices offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that enables users to express a preference regarding the tracking of their online activities across websites and online services.

At present, there is no universally accepted legal or technical standard requiring all websites to interpret or respond to browser-based DNT signals in the same manner.

Accordingly, S2F SIGNATURE does not currently modify its cookie practices solely on the basis of a browser-based Do Not Track signal.

Essential Website Operations

Regardless of whether a Do Not Track signal is enabled, our website may continue to use cookies and similar technologies that are reasonably necessary to:

  • Maintain website security.
  • Protect against fraud and unauthorised activities.
  • Enable secure browsing sessions.
  • Support shopping cart functionality.
  • Facilitate secure checkout and payment processes.
  • Maintain website performance and operational stability.
  • Provide other essential website services.

Cookie Preferences

Where applicable law requires consent for non-essential cookies, your preferences regarding such cookies will be managed through the cookie preference mechanisms provided on our website rather than solely through browser-based Do Not Track signals.

You may review, modify, or withdraw applicable cookie preferences using the available cookie-management options.

Future Standards

S2F SIGNATURE monitors developments in privacy legislation, recognised industry standards, and technological practices relating to online tracking and privacy.

If a widely accepted legal or technical framework for responding to DNT signals is established in the future, or if applicable law requires a different approach, we may revise our practices and update this Cookie Policy accordingly.

Third-Party Technologies

Independent third-party technologies integrated into our website may independently interpret or respond to DNT signals in accordance with their own technical capabilities and privacy practices.

S2F SIGNATURE does not control how independent third-party providers interpret or respond to browser-based Do Not Track requests.

8. DATA PROTECTION & PRIVACY

At S2F SIGNATURE, safeguarding the privacy, confidentiality, and security of customer information is an important responsibility.

We are committed to processing information responsibly, transparently, and in accordance with applicable laws and recognised privacy and data-protection principles.

This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which provides additional information regarding how S2F SIGNATURE collects, uses, stores, safeguards, discloses, retains, and otherwise processes personal information obtained through our website, products, and services.

Cookies and Personal Information

Cookies generally do not identify an individual personally on their own.

However, depending on the nature of the cookie, technology, website interaction, and information voluntarily provided by a customer, information collected through cookies may in certain circumstances be associated with personal information.

Depending on the circumstances, the applicable legal basis may include:

  • Consent, where required.
  • Performance of a contract or transaction requested by you.

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, organisational, and physical safeguards designed to protect information against accidental loss, unauthorised access, misuse, disclosure, alteration, destruction, or other unlawful processing.

However, no method of internet transmission, electronic communication, or electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Accordingly, while we take reasonable measures to protect information, S2F SIGNATURE cannot guarantee absolute security.

Data Retention

Information collected through cookies and similar technologies is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Cookie Policy, applicable legal obligations, dispute resolution, security requirements, enforcement of legal rights, or legitimate operational requirements.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of technology, purpose, information involved, legal requirements, and third-party provider configuration.

Information Shared with Service Providers

Where necessary for legitimate business purposes, certain information collected through cookies may be processed by service providers acting on behalf of or in connection with S2F SIGNATURE.

Such providers may process information only to the extent reasonably necessary to provide their services, subject to applicable contractual, confidentiality, security, and legal requirements.
