This Cookie Policy explains how EcoKeys uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit ecokeys.co.uk, what they are used for and how you can control optional technologies.
Last updated: 7 September 2026
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small pieces of information that websites can store on your device. They are commonly used to enable website functions, remember choices, maintain sessions and provide security.
Similar technologies may also store or access information on your device. This can include browser storage, scripts and other technologies used by website services.
2. How EcoKeys Uses Cookies
EcoKeys uses essential cookies and similar technologies where necessary to operate and secure our ecommerce website.
These technologies may support:
- Website security.
- Your shopping session.
- The shopping basket and checkout.
- Customer account functionality.
- Fraud prevention and protection.
- Remembering cookie preferences.
Some optional functionality, such as customer-review features, may also use functional storage technologies.
3. Cookie Categories
Essential Cookies
Essential technologies are used where necessary for the website to operate securely and provide functions requested by the visitor.
They may include technologies required for security, shopping sessions, checkout, customer accounts and remembering your privacy choices.
These cannot be disabled through the EcoKeys cookie-preference controls where they are necessary for the website to operate.
Functional Cookies
Functional technologies support optional features and may help improve how particular website functions operate.
EcoKeys currently uses Fera for customer-review functionality. Fera may use browser storage for caching, performance and review-related functions.

5. Fera Reviews
EcoKeys uses Fera to provide customer-review functionality.
Fera states that it may use cookies or browser storage for purposes including caching, improving widget performance, remembering review-related sessions and using geographic information to show review content that is more relevant to the visitor.
Some Fera functionality is optional and is therefore treated as functional technology where appropriate.
6. Analytics
EcoKeys does not currently use Google Analytics.
If analytics technology is introduced in the future, this Cookie Policy and the EcoKeys cookie-preference controls will be reviewed and updated before the technology is used where this is required by law.
7. Advertising Cookies
EcoKeys does not currently use advertising cookies for behavioural advertising, tracking or profiling on this website.
If advertising or tracking technology is introduced in the future, we will update our cookie information and request consent where required before non-exempt technologies are activated.
8. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You can manage optional EcoKeys cookie preferences using the Cookie Settings link in the footer of the website.
The preference controls allow you to accept optional technologies, reject non-essential technologies or choose the categories you wish to allow.
Essential technologies required for website security and core ecommerce operation cannot be disabled through these controls.
You can return to Cookie Settings at any time to review or change your optional preferences.
9. Browser Controls
Most web browsers also allow you to view, delete or restrict cookies through the browser's privacy settings.
Blocking essential cookies through your browser may prevent parts of EcoKeys from working correctly, including account, shopping basket or checkout functionality.
10. Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy if the technologies used by EcoKeys change, if new services are introduced or if applicable legal requirements change.
The date at the top of this page shows when this policy was most recently updated.
