1. Introduction
VitMax.uk uses cookies to keep the site working, analyse traffic, and track affiliate link clicks. This policy explains what cookies I set, why I set them, and how you control them. This site follows the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and UK GDPR.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They let the site remember information between pages and visits.
3. Cookies We Use
Essential cookies keep the site functional. They enable navigation, page loading, and affiliate link routing. Your consent is not required for these.
Analytics cookies show which pages visitors view, how long they stay, and where they leave. This site uses Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (GTM-MRR2D9N4) for this. These cookies only activate if you accept analytics cookies.
Affiliate cookies track clicks on Amazon links. As an Amazon Associate, I earn a commission on qualifying purchases at no extra cost to you. These cookies only activate if you accept them.
This site does not set advertising cookies or share your data with third parties for ad targeting.
4. Third-Party Cookies
When you click an Amazon link, Amazon sets its own cookies on their site. I do not control those. See Amazon’s Cookie Policy at amazon.co.uk for details.
Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager also set cookies. See Google’s Privacy Policy at policies.google.com for details.
5. Cookie Retention Periods
| Cookie type | Retention |
|---|---|
| Essential | Session or up to 1 year |
| Analytics (Google Analytics) | Up to 2 years |
| Affiliate (Amazon) | Up to 90 days |
6. Your Choices
When you first visit VitMax.uk, a cookie banner gives you three options:
- Accept All — essential, analytics, and affiliate cookies are set
- Reject All — essential cookies only are set
- Customise — you choose which categories to allow
You can change your preferences at any time via the cookie settings link in the footer. Blocking analytics or affiliate cookies does not affect your ability to browse the site. Blocking essential cookies may cause some pages to load incorrectly.
7. Managing Cookies in Your Browser
You also control cookies directly in your browser. Links to instructions for major browsers:
- Chrome: support.google.com/chrome/answer/95647
- Firefox: support.mozilla.org/kb/cookies-information-websites-store-on-your-computer
- Safari: support.apple.com/guide/safari/manage-cookies
- Edge: support.microsoft.com/microsoft-edge/delete-cookies
Note that browser-level blocking overrides your banner preferences.
8. Changes to This Policy
I update this page when cookie use changes. The date at the top shows when I last made changes. Continued use of the site after an update does not constitute consent — your banner preferences remain in effect.
