Cookies Policy
Last updated: . This Cookies Policy explains how ErgoBloom, operated by Vibeplant, uses cookies and similar technologies on vibeplant.world when you explore ergonomic habit guides, configure product preferences, or complete enquiries.
What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help remember preferences, keep sessions secure, and understand how visitors use pages. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, and pixel tags referenced collectively as cookies in this policy.
Who Controls Cookies
Vibeplant controls first-party cookies set by our domain. Third-party providers such as analytics or embedded map services may set their own cookies subject to their policies. We minimise third-party tools and load them only where they add clear value.
Types of Cookies We Use
We group cookies into the following categories:
- Strictly necessary: enable core functions such as consent storage, security tokens, load balancing, and checkout session continuity. These cannot be switched off without breaking the site.
- Functional: remember language, font size choices, or dismissed banners so your experience on ErgoBloom remains consistent between visits.
- Analytics: collect aggregated statistics on page views, scroll depth, and navigation paths to improve habit guides and product descriptions. Where used, IP addresses are truncated where possible.
- Marketing: only deployed if you opt in to newsletters or partner offers. We currently limit marketing cookies and rely primarily on email consent.
Cookie Duration
Session cookies expire when you close the browser. Persistent cookies remain for defined periods: consent preferences up to twelve months, analytics up to thirteen months, and functional preferences up to six months unless you clear them earlier.
Specific Examples
Examples of first-party cookies on vibeplant.world may include:
- ergobloom_consent: stores whether you accepted or declined optional cookies via our banner.
- session_id: maintains a secure session while you complete multi-step forms.
- ui_prefs: remembers compact layout or reduced motion choices when you enable accessibility settings.
Embedded Google Maps on our contact page may set cookies required to display location tiles and measure map performance. Review Google privacy documentation for details.
Legal Basis
Strictly necessary cookies are used based on legitimate interests in providing a secure, functional website. Analytics and marketing cookies rely on your consent under UK privacy law and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations. You may withdraw consent at any time.
Managing Preferences
When you first visit, our banner lets you accept or decline non-essential cookies. You can change your mind by clearing site data in your browser or contacting us to reset preferences. Most browsers let you block all cookies, block third-party cookies only, or delete existing cookies. Instructions are available in Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge help centres.
Do Not Track
Some browsers send Do Not Track signals. There is no uniform industry response. We treat explicit cookie choices on our banner as the primary control mechanism.
Impact of Disabling Cookies
Blocking necessary cookies may prevent forms from submitting, stop consent records from saving, or break secure checkout. Declining analytics cookies does not affect your ability to read habit guides or purchase ergonomic accessories.
Updates
We review this policy when adding features such as live chat or new payment methods. Check the date above for the latest version. Significant changes will be highlighted on the homepage banner where appropriate.
