Privacy

Your privacy is taken very seriously when you buy from The One Stop Bug Shop, and Paypal is used to prcoess payments for this reason. This means that none of your personal card information or bank details is ever seen by me, and Paypal ensure your security when making payments through them. You do not need a Paypal account to use their payments system as they also accept one-off card payments.


You will only receive the necessary emails to confirm your order, and after that, you will only hear from me if you choose to sign up to the newsletter

Cookies

Cookies are very small text files that websites install on visitors’ devices for a number of reasons, such as to enable shopping baskets to work correctly and, at the other end of the spectrum, to allow advertising to become more targeted and personalised.

Cookies cannot harm your device at all, and they can make the internet incredibly easy to use. All Internet browsers, such as Google Chrome and Internet Explorer, have an optional setting to disallow these cookies.

As a result of using Google Analytics this website sets performance cookies. These cookies collect information about how visitors use a website, for instance which pages visitors go to most often, and if they get error messages from web pages. These cookies don’t collect information that identifies a visitor. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. It is only used to improve how a website works.

Through the use of the Facebook 'like' button on my site, this website sets targeting cookies, as Facebook sets these. These cookies are used to deliver adverts more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of the advertising campaign. They are usually placed by advertising networks with the website operator’s permission. They remember that you have visited a website and this information is shared with other organisations such as advertisers. Quite often targeting or advertising cookies will be linked to site functionality provided by the other organisation. If you use Facebook already you would have noticed these cookies in action.
