Definition
What a cookie is
A cookie is a small text file that a website can place or read through your browser or device. It can hold information connected with a visit, helping a website recognise the same browser as you move between pages or return later. Cookies do not automatically identify you as a person. Their role depends on the information involved and the way the website feature has been set up.
Technology note
Similar technologies
Websites may also use comparable technologies, such as local storage or tags, where they help deliver a website function. In this policy, we use the word “cookies” as a convenient term for cookies and similar technologies unless a distinction matters. Mentioning a technology here does not mean it is active on every page or at every visit.
Scope
What this policy covers
This policy describes technology choices and controls connected with the Slate & Onyx website. Where personal information is involved, please also read our Privacy Policy. That policy addresses related privacy information, while this Cookie Policy focuses on cookies, similar technologies, and the practical ways you may manage them.
Technology register
Why cookies may be used
Cookies may be used for different website purposes. The categories below explain the kinds of functions that may be relevant. Only technologies actually deployed should appear in any applicable cookie notice or website-level settings.
Necessary
Necessary website functions
Some cookies may be needed for core website functions, such as security, page delivery, remembering your cookie choices, and enabling requested website features. Where a technology is genuinely necessary for basic operation, it may not be possible to disable it through website-level settings. This does not mean every listed function is active at all times; it explains the role necessary cookies may perform when used.
Preferences
Preference functions
Preference cookies may remember choices that make a return visit more consistent, such as display or interface preferences where those options are offered. Their availability depends on the website feature you are using. You can generally manage these cookies through your browser settings, although removing them may mean that a choice needs to be made again on a later visit.
Performance
Measurement and improvement
Analytics or performance technologies may be used to understand how visitors use pages, identify technical issues, and improve website content and usability. We do not name a provider here because none is assumed by this policy. When these technologies are in use, they should be presented in the applicable cookie notice or settings available at that time.
External content
Embedded or third-party content
Content delivered by another service, if used on this website, may set or read its own cookies under that service’s policies. Those cookies are controlled by the relevant third party rather than solely by Slate & Onyx. Where applicable, you should review that provider’s privacy or cookie information to understand its technology choices and available controls.

Your controls
Your choices and browser controls
Manage cookies through your browser
Most browsers allow you to review, block, limit, or delete cookies. The exact steps differ by browser and device, so consult your browser’s help documentation for current instructions. Browser controls may need to be applied separately on each browser or device you use. Choosing a setting in one browser does not necessarily change the settings in another browser on the same device.
Changes may take time to appear
Deleting or blocking cookies may reset saved preferences. You may need to refresh a page or revisit the website before a change takes effect. This is practical guidance rather than a technical guarantee, as the result can depend on your browser, device, and the website function involved.
04
Practical effects
If you block or delete cookies
Effects on website functionality
Blocking or deleting some cookies can mean that the website does not remember prior choices, and some requested functions may not operate as intended. The effect will depend on the technologies involved and the feature you are using. This is usually a matter of website convenience or technical functionality; it does not mean that every cookie choice will prevent access to the website.
A visitor can revisit their settings
You may change your browser settings again later. Allowing cookies or clearing an earlier restriction may restore relevant functions after a new visit or refresh, though a particular outcome cannot be guaranteed. If you need help understanding this policy, you are welcome to contact Slate & Onyx using the policy contact route below.
