This policy explains what cookies we use on exodusapparels.nz and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
Cookies are small text files a website stores on your device. They let the site remember things — that you are logged in, what is in your cart, which pages you have visited.
Some are set by us. Others are set by third-party services we use, such as analytics or advertising platforms.
Strictly necessary — the site cannot work without these. They keep you logged in, remember your cart, and secure checkout. They cannot be switched off.
Functional — these remember your preferences, such as your region or recently viewed products.
Analytics — these tell us how people use the site: which pages are visited, how long people stay, where they arrive from. We use this in aggregate to improve the site.
Marketing — these let us show relevant advertising on other platforms and measure whether it works.
Our website runs on WordPress with WooCommerce. The cookies below are set by that platform.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
woocommerce_cart_hash | Tells the site your cart has changed so totals update correctly | Session |
woocommerce_items_in_cart | Tells the site your cart is not empty | Session |
wp_woocommerce_session_[hash] | Holds your cart contents and lets us find your cart data in the database | 2 days |
wordpress_test_cookie | Checks whether your browser accepts cookies | Session |
PHPSESSID | Maintains your session while you browse | Session |
These cannot be switched off. Blocking them will stop the cart and checkout working.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
woocommerce_recently_viewed | Powers the recently viewed products list | Session |
store_notice[notice id] | Remembers that you dismissed the site banner | Session |
wp-settings-[id] | Remembers display preferences | 1 year |
wp-settings-time-[id] | Records when display preferences were set | 1 year |
These are set only if you log in to manage the site. They are never set for customers.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
wordpress_[hash] | Authenticates a logged-in administrator | Session |
wordpress_logged_in_[hash] | Indicates an administrator is logged in | Session |

Some cookies are set by services we use rather than by us:
These providers have their own privacy policies, which govern how they use the data they collect.
In your browser. Every major browser lets you block or delete cookies. Blocking strictly necessary cookies will stop checkout working.
Opting out of analytics and advertising
Some browsers send a “Do Not Track” signal. There is no agreed standard for responding to it, so our site does not currently respond to it. Use the controls above instead.
We may update this policy as the services we use change. The “last updated” date above will change.
