What are Cookies?

Cookies are tiny text files stored on your computer when you visit certain web pages. At Lime Supply we use cookies to keep track of what you have in your basket, and to remember you when you return to our site.

To order products on the Lime Supply website, you need to have cookies enabled – see the section on Managing cookies. If you don’t wish to enable cookies, you’ll still be able to browse the site. Most web browsers have cookies enabled, but see Managing cookies for help to turn them on should you need to.

Please note that cookies can’t harm your computer. We don’t store personally identifiable information such as credit card details in cookies we create, but we do use encrypted information gathered from them to help improve your experience of the website. For example, they help us to identify and resolve errors, or to determine relevant related products to show you when you’re browsing.

We’re giving you this information as part of our initiative to comply with recent legislation, and to make sure we’re honest and clear about your privacy when using our website. We know you’d expect nothing less from us, and please be assured that we’re working on a number of other privacy and cookie-related improvements to the website.

Our cookie policy

However, if you’d prefer to restrict, block or delete cookies from Lime Supply, or any other website, you can use your browser to do this. Each browser is different, so check the ‘Help’ menu of your particular browser (or your mobile phone’s handset manual) to learn how to change your cookie preferences.

The data stored by these cookies can be seen only by the relevant teams at Lime Supply and Google and never shows any confidential information.
