Last updated: 1 September 2026

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files or pieces of data stored on your device when you visit a website. They help a website recognise your browser, keep a shopping session active, remember preferences, and understand how visitors use the site.

Cookies may be associated with information such as a device identifier, browser type, IP address, approximate location, pages viewed, products viewed, cart activity, referring pages, and the date and time of visits.

Depending on how this information is combined with other information, cookie data may be considered personal information.

2. Similar technologies

When we refer to cookies, we also mean similar technologies that may be used on our website, including tracking pixels, tags, scripts, local storage, session storage, device identifiers, and advertising identifiers.

These technologies can work differently from browser cookies, but they often support similar purposes, such as measuring performance, remembering choices, or helping us understand website activity.

3. Why we use them

Pepwise Cosmetics may use cookies and similar technologies to operate and secure the website, maintain your cart, support checkout, remember preferences, prevent fraud, and improve site reliability.

We may also use cookies to understand website performance, identify technical issues, measure marketing activity, understand how visitors arrive at the site, and improve the customer experience.

We aim to use cookies in a measured way and collect only the information reasonably needed for these purposes.

4. Strictly necessary cookies

Strictly necessary cookies are required for the website to work correctly. They may support security, fraud prevention, network management, shopping cart activity, checkout progress, payment processing, and privacy preference storage.

Because these cookies are essential, they may not be available to switch off through our cookie preference tools. You may be able to block them in your browser, but some parts of the website may stop working correctly.

5. Functional cookies

Functional cookies help the website remember choices you make, such as region, display preferences, previous selections, or other settings that improve your experience.

If functional cookies are disabled, some features may be less convenient or may not behave as expected.

6. Analytics and performance cookies

Analytics and performance cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the website. They may collect information about pages viewed, time on page, navigation paths, browser and device type, errors, traffic sources, and general website performance.

This information helps us improve the store, refine product pages, and make the website easier to use.

7. Marketing and advertising cookies

Where used, marketing cookies may help measure the effectiveness of campaigns, understand whether an advertisement led to a website visit or purchase, limit repeated advertising, and support relevant product communications.

These cookies may be set by us or by third-party platforms that help with advertising, attribution, or audience measurement. Your choices may affect how personalised advertising appears across different services.

8. Third-party services

Some cookies and similar technologies may be placed by service providers that help us operate the store, process payments, analyse performance, host the website, manage email communications, provide customer support, or measure marketing.

Those third parties may process information according to their own privacy and cookie terms. We recommend reviewing the privacy information provided by the services you use.

9. Managing cookies

Most browsers allow you to block, delete, or limit cookies through browser settings. The controls available to you depend on your browser and device.

You can usually find cookie settings in your browser privacy or security menu. If you block all cookies, essential parts of the website, including cart and checkout, may not work correctly.

You may also be able to manage some analytics or advertising preferences through platform-level privacy settings, device settings, or industry opt-out tools.

10. Changes and contact

We may update this Cookie Policy when our website, providers, technology, or legal obligations change. The version on this page applies from the last updated date below.

Questions about cookies or website tracking can be sent to support@pepwise.com.au.

You can continue shopping with essential cookies enabled. Browser-level cookie restrictions may affect cart, checkout, and payment functionality.
