Cookie Policy
Last updated: 3 August 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how SIA GIGI BLOKS, operating the brand BE.E GEM ("we", "us", "our"), uses cookies and similar technologies on beegem.eu. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to recognise your device, remember your preferences, keep your shopping cart, measure performance, and — where you consent — support analytics and personalised advertising. Similar technologies (pixels, tags, local storage) work in a comparable way, and references to "cookies" in this policy include them.
2. Your consent and how to manage cookies
When you first visit our store, a cookie-consent banner lets you accept or decline non-essential cookies, or manage your preferences by category. Strictly necessary cookies are always active because the store cannot function without them; all other categories are set only if you consent. You can change or withdraw your choices at any time through the cookie settings on our site. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings, although some features may then not work as intended.
3. Categories of cookies we use
Strictly necessary cookies. Required to operate the store — for example to maintain your session, remember the contents of your cart, enable checkout and payment, and keep the site secure. These are set by Shopify (our platform) and by hCaptcha, which protects our forms from abuse. They do not require consent.
Functional / preference cookies. Remember choices you make, such as language, region, or previously viewed items, to give you a more personalised experience. Set only with your consent.
Analytics / performance cookies. Help us understand how visitors use the store so we can improve it (pages visited, time on site, general interaction data). Set only with your consent.
Marketing / advertising cookies. Used by us and our partners (including through Shopify) to build a profile of your interests, show you relevant products, and measure and personalise advertising across websites. Set only with your consent, and you can withdraw consent at any time.
4. Cookies set by third parties
Some cookies are set by third parties that provide services on our behalf or through our store, including:
- Shopify — our e-commerce platform (essential store functionality, and, with consent, analytics and personalised advertising). See the Shopify Cookie Policy.
- hCaptcha — bot and abuse protection on our forms. See the hCaptcha Privacy Policy.
- Analytics and advertising partners — where enabled with your consent, to measure performance and deliver relevant advertising. These partners process data under their own privacy notices.
5. How long cookies last
Cookies are either session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain for a set period or until you delete them. Retention periods vary by cookie and provider; consent-based cookies are refreshed in line with your choices, and we ask for consent again periodically.
6. Changes to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the technologies we use or for legal or operational reasons. We will post the revised version here and update the "Last updated" date.
