Cookie Policy
Last updated: 23 August 2026
This Policy explains which cookies and similar technologies we use at PartAndStock, the purposes for which we use them, and how you can manage your preferences. For details on how your personal data is processed, please see our Privacy Policy.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your browser or device when you visit it. Cookies are widely used to keep you signed in, remember your preferences, and understand how a site is used. Similar technologies (such as local storage and pixels) are also covered by this Policy.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
| Type | Purpose | Required? |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Cookies required for the core operation of the site, such as sign-in, authentication, cart and security. | Yes (cannot be disabled) |
| Functional | Your language, country and currency preferences; remembering choices such as favorites and BOM lists. | No |
| Analytics | Measurement (usually aggregated/anonymous) to understand how pages are used and to improve the service. | No |
| Advertising & Affiliate | Serving interest-based ads and measuring their performance; also, when you click a supplier/store link, measuring purchases referred through affiliate networks and enabling commission to be paid to us (where enabled or when a link is clicked, by third-party providers). | No |
3. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies may be placed by the third parties from whom we obtain analytics and advertising services (e.g., Google). In addition, when you click a supplier/store link, the affiliate networks we participate in (e.g., CJ/Commission Junction, Awin) may set cookies to measure referred purchases and enable commission to be paid to us. These providers are subject to their own privacy and cookie policies; data collected through these cookies is processed under the relevant provider's policy. Advertising and affiliate cookies are used only when the related feature is enabled or the link is clicked.
4. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You can delete or block non-essential cookies at any time through your browser settings. In most browsers, these options are found under "Settings → Privacy/Cookies":
- The relevant "manage cookies" menus for Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge and Safari,
- Your browser's "Do Not Track" options.
If you block strictly necessary cookies, some parts of the site (sign-in, cart, etc.) may not work correctly. If you delete functional cookies, preferences such as language and currency may be reset.
5. Changes to This Policy
This Cookie Policy may be updated from time to time. The current version is published on this page with a "last updated" date. If you have any questions, you can write to us at [email protected].
