1) What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a site stores on your device to remember information about your visit. We also use similar technologies (like pixels and local storage). Some cookies are first-party (set by VSB) and others are third-party (set by our service providers, e.g., analytics or payment partners).
2) Why we use cookies
- Essential (strictly necessary): make the site work (security, login, cart/checkout).
- Functional: remember choices (e.g., language, store filters).
- Analytics: understand site usage so we can improve pages and products.
- Advertising/Performance: measure campaigns and prevent ad fraud (used only if you consent where required).
Legal bases (EEA/UK): we rely on legitimate interests for essential cookies; for all others we rely on your consent.

4) How long do cookies last?
- Session cookies delete when you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies stay until they expire or you delete them. We keep data only as long as needed for the purposes above.
5) Managing your cookie choices
- Site controls: If you see a cookie banner or a “Cookie Settings” link/icon on our site, use it to grant, deny, or change consent at any time.
- Browser controls: You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Useful guides: Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge (see each browser’s help pages).
- Do Not Track: We do not respond to DNT signals due to industry standards not being uniform.
Note: Blocking essential cookies will break features like login, cart, and checkout.
6) EEA/UK information
Where required, we will ask for your consent before setting non-essential cookies. You can withdraw consent at any time using the site controls (if available) or by clearing cookies.
7) California (CPRA) information
