How we use cookies and similar technologies, and how you stay in control.
Last reviewed: July 2026
This policy explains how Crown Vault Ltd (“The Crown Vault”) uses cookies and similar technologies on https://www.thecrownvault.co.uk. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site work, remember your preferences, keep your session secure and help us understand how the site is used. We also use related technologies such as browser local storage — for example, to keep the watches in your basket and wishlist between visits.
The categories we use
| Category | What it does | Consent |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Core functionality — your basket, wishlist, secure checkout, load balancing and fraud prevention. The site cannot work properly without these. | Always on |
| Performance & analytics | Anonymous, aggregated statistics that tell us which pages are popular and where we can improve. | Optional |
| Functional | Remembers choices such as recently viewed watches and display preferences for a more personal experience. | Optional |
| Marketing | Helps us measure campaigns and show relevant content on other platforms. Set only with your consent. | Optional |
First- and third-party cookies
Some cookies are set by us (first-party) and some by trusted third parties who provide services such as analytics or, where you consent, advertising measurement. Third parties are responsible for their own cookies under their own policies.
Managing your preferences
When you first visit, our consent banner lets you accept or manage non-essential cookies. You can change your choice at any time by clearing cookies for this site and reloading the page, or through your browser settings, which let you block or delete cookies. Please note that disabling some cookies may affect how the site works — for example, your basket may not be retained.
Most browsers explain how to manage cookies in their help pages, including Chrome, Safari, Edge and Firefox. You can also opt out of many analytics and advertising cookies through your device or browser privacy settings.
Do Not Track
We honour recognised browser signals for non-essential cookies where technically feasible, and only set optional cookies with your consent.
Changes
We may update this policy as our use of cookies evolves. The “last reviewed” date above shows when it last changed.
