Cookies and similar technologies
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies on the Services to make them function properly, remember your preferences, and understand how visitors use our site.
Essential cookies are required for the Services to function (e.g. keeping items in your cart, remembering login state). These do not require your consent.
Analytics and marketing cookies help us understand site usage and show you relevant content. These are only set with your consent, which you can manage through the cookie banner shown on your first visit or in your browser settings.
You may withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.
Third Party Websites and Links
The Services may contain links to websites operated by third parties. If you follow such links, we encourage you to review those sites' privacy and security policies. We do not control and are not responsible for the privacy or security practices of external sites.

Security and Retention of Your Information
We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information from unauthorised access, alteration, or disclosure. Please note that no security measures are perfect, and information transmitted over the internet cannot be guaranteed to be fully secure.
We retain your personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy:
- Order data (name, address, order details): retained for 7 years for accounting and tax purposes under Swedish law.
