Cookie Policy
The small number of cookies this site uses, and why each one is here.
Last updated: August 2026
The short version
Creamy Bite does not track you. We run no analytics, no advertising cookies and no social media pixels. The only cookies this site sets are the ones needed to keep your basket working and to take a payment securely.
That is why you are not being shown a cookie consent banner. Under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations, cookies that are strictly necessary for a service you asked for do not require consent — and at present, every cookie here is one of those.
What a cookie is
A small text file a website stores in your browser so it can recognise your visit from one page to the next. Without one, a shopping basket would empty itself every time you clicked a link.
Cookies we set
| Cookie | Purpose | How long it lasts |
|---|---|---|
PHPSESSID |
Keeps your session together — your basket contents, your promo code, and whether you are signed in to a trade account. The site cannot function without it. | Until you close your browser |
That is the entire list. We do not store your name, address or card details in a cookie — order details go in our database once you place an order, and card details never reach our server at all.
Cookies set by others
Two third parties can set their own cookies on pages where their content appears. We do not control these and cannot read them.
| Who | Where it appears | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Stripe | The checkout page, when you choose to pay by card | Processes the payment and detects fraud. Stripe is how your card details stay off our systems entirely. See the Stripe privacy policy. |
| Google Maps | The map showing our Harrow location | Loads the embedded map. Google may set cookies when the map appears. See the Google privacy policy. |
Turning cookies off
Every browser lets you block or delete cookies — usually under Settings, then Privacy. You should know what happens if you block ours: the basket stops remembering what you added, trade sign-in stops working, and checkout cannot complete. Nothing breaks permanently, but you will not be able to place an order.
Blocking only third-party cookies is gentler. The site keeps working; the embedded map may not load.
If this changes
If we ever add analytics or advertising, this page will be updated before those cookies are switched on, and you will be asked for consent first. We are not going to start measuring you quietly.
