Cookie Policy

Effective Date: 19 April 2026
Last Updated: 25 October 2026

We use cookies to help improve your experience of our website at jleverespresso.com and any related subdomains ("Website"). This Cookie Policy forms part of our Privacy Policy and covers the use of cookies between your device and our Website.

This policy also lists the third-party services we use that set their own cookies, or store data in your browser, as part of their service. For full details of how those services use that data, please refer to their own privacy and cookie policies.

If you do not wish to accept cookies from us, you can manage your preferences through our Cookie Consent Manager (described below), or instruct your browser to refuse cookies from our Website. In such cases, some features and content may not be available to you.

What is a Cookie?

A cookie is a small piece of data that a website stores on your device when you visit. It typically contains:

  • Information about the website itself;
  • A unique identifier that allows the site to recognise your web browser when you return;
  • Additional data related to the cookie's purpose;
  • The cookie's lifespan (how long it remains on your device).

Cookies are used to enable certain features (such as logging in), track site usage (such as analytics), remember your preferences (such as language or display settings), and personalise content (such as advertising).

First-party cookies are set by the website you are visiting and usually only track activity on that particular site.

Third-party cookies are set by other sites or companies and can be used to track you across multiple websites that use the same third-party service.

Similar technologies: some services store data in your browser's local storage instead of in a cookie. Local storage works in a similar way, and in this policy "cookies" includes it.

Types of Cookies We Use

The categories below match the categories in our Cookie Consent Manager.

Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are necessary for core features of our Website to function — including secure browsing, shopping cart functionality, account management, and checkout. These cookies cannot be disabled, as our Website would not work properly without them.

We use essential cookies on our Website. They are set when a page loads:

  • BigCommerce (our shop platform) — keeps your cart, checkout and sign-in working, remembers your shop settings, and protects our forms against misuse. Cookies: SHOP_SESSION_TOKEN, Shopper-Pref, SF-CSRF-TOKEN, XSRF-TOKEN, STORE_VISITOR (from the end of your visit up to 7 days);
  • Cloudflare — website security, telling real visitors apart from automated bots. Cookie: __cf_bm (30 minutes);
  • Google reCAPTCHA — protects our forms, such as Contact Us and product reviews, from spam. Cookie: _GRECAPTCHA, set on google.com (6 months);
  • GetTerms (our Cookie Consent Manager) — remembers the choices you make about cookies. Local storage: getterms_cookie_consent, getterms_init (until you clear your browser data);
  • Stripe and PayPal — process payments and help prevent fraud. They set their own cookies during checkout; please see their privacy policies for details.

Functional Cookies

Functional cookies remember information about your device and any preferences you configure on our Website (such as display or video settings), and support features such as our product videos and email sign-up form. This enables us to provide a more customised experience on return visits. These cookies may be set by us (first-party) or by third-party services.

We use functional cookies on our Website. The services below store a small amount of data in your browser when a page loads:

  • Wistia — plays our product videos and remembers your playback position and player settings. Local storage: wistia, wistia-video-progress-[video ID] (until you clear your browser data);
  • MailerLite — runs our email sign-up form. Local storage: ml_guid, a random visitor ID (until you clear your browser data).

Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use our Website, such as which pages are viewed, how visitors arrive and where they leave. This information is aggregated — it helps us identify errors and improve the overall experience. These cookies may be set by us (first-party) or by third-party services.

We use analytics cookies on our Website:

  • Google Analytics — counts visits and shows which pages are used. Cookies: _ga, _ga_PFZYX0ZJET (2 years). These are only set if you accept Analytics cookies in our Cookie Consent Manager. If you do not, Google Analytics receives only a limited signal that a page was viewed, and no cookie or identifier is stored on your device;
  • BigCommerce — keeps basic visitor statistics for our shop. Cookies: fornax_anonymousId (2 years), athena_short_visit_id (30 minutes). BigCommerce sets these when a page loads.

Marketing Cookies

Marketing cookies are used to deliver advertising relevant to you and your interests, to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns, and to limit the number of times you see the same advertisement. These cookies are generally set by third-party advertising networks with our permission.

We use marketing cookies on our Website. They are only set if you accept Marketing cookies in our Cookie Consent Manager:

  • Google Ads — measures how well our Google ads work, and lets us show our ads to people who have visited our Website. Cookies: _gcl_au (90 days), plus cookies on Google's own domains. If you do not accept Marketing cookies, Google Ads receives only a limited signal that a page was viewed, and no cookie is stored on your device;
  • Meta Pixel (from Meta, the company behind Facebook and Instagram) — measures how well our Facebook and Instagram ads work, and lets us show our ads to people who have visited our Website. It tells Meta which pages you view, which products you look at or add to your cart, when you start checkout, and the products and total of any order you place. Cookies: _fbp (90 days), _fbc if you arrive by clicking one of our ads (90 days), plus cookies on Meta's own domains. If you do not accept Marketing cookies, no Meta cookie is set and our Website does not send Meta any information about your visit.

How to Control Cookies on Our Website

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject non-essential cookies on our Website. You can manage your preferences at any time through our Cookie Consent Manager, which allows you to select which categories of cookies you accept or reject.

Essential cookies cannot be rejected, as they are strictly necessary for our Website to function.

Your choices in the Cookie Consent Manager control Google Analytics, Google Ads and the Meta Pixel. BigCommerce's visitor statistics, our product videos and our email sign-up form store their data when a page loads, as described above; you can clear or block that data through your browser settings.

You can re-open the Cookie Consent Manager at any time by clicking the cookie icon in the bottom-left corner of our Website. Withdrawing your consent is as easy as giving it.

You can also control cookies through your web browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, manage, delete, and block cookies. Please consult the instructions provided by your specific browser (usually found in the "Help", "Settings", or "Preferences" section). Note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of our Website and other websites you visit.
