01 / Cookie basics
Cookies and similar technologies
What a cookie is
A cookie is a small text file that a website may place in your browser or on your device. When your browser later requests another page or returns to the site, the browser can recognise information associated with that file. Where used, cookies can support basic website operation, remember choices you have made, or help a website understand how people use its pages. Cookies do not independently read files on your device or take control of it.
Related technologies
Similar browser technologies
When this policy refers to cookies, it also includes related technologies that may serve similar purposes, such as browser storage, pixels, tags or comparable tools. Where used, these may store or read limited information in a browser or help website functions operate. The terminology can differ between browsers and services, so the practical effect matters more than the label applied to a particular technology.
First party
First-party cookies are generally set directly by the website you are visiting and may support functions associated with that website.
Third party
If services used through a website set related technologies, they may be governed by their own notices or policies. Where information is available, review the relevant notice and your browser information.
02 / Purpose
How the website may use cookies
The technologies described below may be used only where relevant site features or services are enabled. They are grouped by practical purpose so you can understand why browser storage may be involved without assuming that every category is active for every visitor.
Essential
Essential website operation
Cookies or equivalent storage may be required for core website functions, security-related operation, load balancing, accessibility support or remembering your interactions with essential notices. Where used for requested functions, this storage may not be controlled in the same way as optional choices because removing it can affect the website’s ability to operate as intended.
Information
Preferences and convenience
Optional or functional storage may help make later visits more consistent by remembering display preferences or previous selections. The exact choices involved depend on the features you use on the site. If you clear browser data, stored choices may be reset and you may need to make them again on a future visit.
Measurement
Performance and understanding site use
Where enabled, measurement technologies may help assess how visitors use pages and identify areas where usability or performance could be improved. This does not mean the website creates identity profiles, records precise location or follows your activity across other sites. This policy does not confirm the use of any particular measurement service or provider.
03 / Choices
Cookie choices and consent
Choices for optional technologies
Where the website presents a choice about optional cookies or similar technologies, you can use the choices made available at that point. If an applicable consent control is available, you may be able to update a decision through that control. Choices can apply to the browser or device used to make them, so a selection on one device may not apply when you use another browser, another device or a private-browsing session.
Your decision can be browser-specific
Cookie choices and browser controls can vary by browser, device and private-browsing mode. Clearing stored browser data can also remove a previous choice. For that reason, you may need to repeat your decision when you return in a different browser or after deleting browser data.
04 / Browser controls
Browser controls and the effects of blocking cookies
Manage cookies in your browser
Most web browsers provide privacy or site-settings controls that let you review, delete, block or restrict cookies. The names and location of these controls differ between browsers and devices, and some related technologies may not be managed in exactly the same way. For current instructions, use the help or settings area in the browser you are using. As a practical starting point, you can follow these general steps:
- 1Open your browser settings or preferences.
- 2Find the privacy, site-data or cookie controls.
- 3Review existing data or change cookie permissions for future browsing.
You may notice
Blocking, restricting or deleting cookies may reset preferences, affect some website functions or mean you need to repeat choices on later visits. The website should remain available where possible, but some features may not work as intended.
What you can do
If something does not work as expected after changing browser settings, review your permissions and browser help information. You can adjust your settings again or clear only the site data you intend to remove where your browser allows it.
05 / Policy maintenance

The current version is published on this page and displays its effective date. Please review this policy periodically so you can understand the version that applies when you use the Pantry Tasman website.
