Last updated: March 20, 2026
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your preferences, keep you signed in, and understand how you use the service. Some cookies are essential for the site to function; others help us improve your experience.

3. Local Storage
In addition to cookies, we use your browser's localStorage to store preferences locally on your device. localStorage data is never sent to our servers automatically — it is read only by our client-side code. You can clear localStorage through your browser settings.
4. Managing Cookies
You can control cookies in several ways:
- Cookie banner: When you first visit Sweetz, you can accept or decline non-essential cookies via the consent banner
- Browser settings: Most browsers let you block or delete cookies. Note that blocking essential cookies may prevent the Service from functioning
- Withdraw consent: You can clear your cookie preferences by clearing your browser cookies and revisiting the site — the consent banner will appear again
Instructions for managing cookies in popular browsers:

5. Do Not Track
We respect the Do Not Track (DNT) browser signal. When DNT is enabled, we do not load non-essential analytics cookies.

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in our practices or for legal reasons. Updates will be posted on this page with a revised "Last updated" date.
