Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how KaijuMonsteR (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies (together, “cookies”) on kaijumonster.com (the “Site”). It forms part of our Privacy Policy and should be read alongside it.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently and to provide information to site owners. Cookies may be first-party (set by us) or third-party (set by a third-party service provider such as a payment or analytics partner).

Under the EU ePrivacy Directive (and applicable national laws), we may set essential cookies without consent, but we require your consent before setting non-essential cookies (such as analytics or marketing cookies) unless another legal exception applies.

2. Types of Cookies We Use

Essential cookies Always on

These cookies are strictly necessary for the Site to function and to provide the services you request (such as remembering items in your cart, processing checkout, maintaining security, and saving your cookie consent preferences). The Site cannot function properly without them. They are set based on our legitimate interest in operating the Site.

Functional cookies

These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalisation, such as remembering your language or region. They are set with your consent.

Analytics cookies

These cookies allow us to recognise and count visitors and to understand how visitors use the Site, so we can improve its performance and content. They are set with your consent.

Marketing cookies

These cookies may be used to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant offers on our Site or elsewhere. They are set with your consent.

3. Cookie Details & Retention

The table below lists the principal cookies we (or our providers) use. Exact names and durations may vary depending on your browser and settings, and some are set only if you interact with a feature (e.g. checkout or a payment provider).

Where a provider or retention period is marked [to be filled], we will complete it once the relevant service is configured. For details on how third-party providers use cookies, see their respective privacy policies linked in our Privacy Policy.

When you first visit the Site, a cookie banner asks for your consent to non-essential cookies. You can accept all, reject non-essential cookies, or make granular choices. You may change your mind and update your preferences at any time via the cookie preferences link in the Site footer, or by managing cookies in your browser (see below).

Essential cookies cannot be disabled, as they are required for the Site to operate and to remember your consent choice.

5. How to Manage or Delete Cookies

You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking or deleting cookies may affect features of the Site—for example, you may not be able to add items to your cart or complete checkout.
