This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies, pixels, tags, local storage, scripts and similar technologies when you visit or use our website. We refer to these technologies collectively as “cookies” in this policy.
This policy applies to all visitors. In the United Kingdom, our use of cookies is governed by applicable law, including the UK GDPR, the Data Protection Act 2018 and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR). Where we offer services to individuals in the European Economic Area, the EU GDPR and applicable national ePrivacy laws may also apply.

For the purposes of applicable data protection law, Wormcount.com Ltd is the controller of personal information collected directly through the website, except where a third-party provider acts as a separate or joint controller for its own processing.
Small text files stored on your computer, phone, tablet or other device when you visit a website. Similar technologies can store or access information on your device without using a traditional cookie file.
First-party cookies are set directly by Wormcount.com. Third-party cookies are set by another organisation whose services we use.
Session cookies normally expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain for a defined period or until you delete them.
Cookies help us operate the website, shopping basket, checkout and customer account features; process payments securely; prevent fraud; remember privacy choices and website preferences; understand website use; measure advertising performance; and show or measure relevant advertising where you have consented.
These cookies are required to operate the website, provide features you request, maintain security, process orders and payments, and remember your privacy choices. They cannot normally be turned off through our Cookie Settings because the website or requested service may not work without them. Consent is not required where a legal exemption applies.
These cookies help us understand website traffic, visitor journeys, browser and device information, and the performance of pages or features. They are activated only after you provide consent and can be turned off through Cookie Settings.
These technologies measure advertising campaigns, attribute conversions, build audiences and support remarketing or personalised advertising. They are activated only after you provide consent and can be turned off through Cookie Settings.
The services below are currently identified for Wormcount.com. Cookie names and durations may change because of provider updates, browser settings, consent choices and the particular website features used. A current technical cookie scan should be used to keep this section aligned with the live website.
These strictly necessary technologies operate the website, security controls, shopping basket, checkout, customer account sessions and cookie preference system. They may include first-party session, basket, checkout, security and preference cookies. They are usually session-based or retained for up to 12 months, depending on their purpose.
Stripe provides secure payment processing, transaction authentication and fraud prevention. Stripe may set cookies such as __stripe_mid, __stripe_sid and m, together with additional authentication or Stripe Link cookies where those products are enabled. Retention varies by Stripe cookie and service; some are session-based and others persist to support fraud prevention or authentication. Strictly necessary Stripe payment and security technologies cannot normally be turned off while using checkout.
Google Analytics measures website traffic, sessions, page interactions, approximate location, browser and device details, referral information and ecommerce events. It may set _ga and _ga_ cookies. These cookies may remain for up to two years by default, subject to configuration and browser limits. Google Analytics is not activated unless you consent to analytics cookies, and you can turn it off through Cookie Settings.
Google Ads supports conversion measurement, campaign reporting, remarketing, audience creation and advertising personalisation where permitted and selected. It may set _gcl_*, _gac_*, IDE, id and related Google advertising identifiers. _gcl_ and _gac_ cookies commonly last for up to 90 days, while some Google advertising cookies may last for up to 13 months in the UK and EEA. Google Ads technologies are not activated unless you consent to advertising cookies, and you can turn them off through Cookie Settings.
Meta advertising technologies measure conversions, create audiences, support remarketing and help assess the performance of advertisements shown through Meta services. They may set _fbp, _fbc and fr cookies, commonly for up to 90 days. Meta advertising technologies are not activated unless you consent to advertising cookies, and you can turn them off through Cookie Settings.
Mailchimp manages newsletter sign-ups and email campaigns. Where enabled, Mailchimp may use cookies, pixels, web beacons or a connected-site tracking snippet to measure email opens, link clicks and website activity, and to support audience segmentation and marketing automation. The technologies and retention periods vary according to the Mailchimp features and account settings in use. Non-essential Mailchimp website tracking is not activated unless you consent to marketing cookies, and you can turn it off through Cookie Settings. Tracking contained within an email may also be controlled through your email client settings or by unsubscribing from marketing emails.
Except where a legal exemption applies, analytics, advertising and other non-essential cookies will not be placed or activated until you provide consent through our cookie banner or privacy choices panel.
Allows all cookie categories described in this policy, including analytics and advertising technologies.
Keeps strictly necessary cookies active but prevents analytics, advertising and other non-essential technologies from being activated.
Allows you to choose individual cookie categories. Rejecting non-essential cookies should be as easy as accepting them.
If Google Consent Mode or an equivalent consent signal is used, it does not replace the requirement to obtain a valid choice where consent is required.
You can change or withdraw your choices at any time by selecting the Cookie Settings link or privacy choices icon on Wormcount.com. You can accept all cookies, reject all non-essential cookies or choose individual categories. Withdrawing consent prevents the affected non-essential technologies from being used in the future through our website.
Strictly necessary cookies cannot normally be disabled through Cookie Settings because they are required to provide essential features such as the shopping basket, checkout, secure payments, fraud prevention and account access.
Changing your website preferences does not always remove cookies already stored in your browser. You may need to delete those cookies through your browser settings. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that took place before consent was withdrawn.
Most browsers allow you to view, block and delete cookies. Blocking all cookies may prevent the basket, checkout, account, payment or other website features from working correctly. Browser controls may not provide complete control over pixels, scripts, server-side measurement or similar technologies, so you should also use Cookie Settings on Wormcount.com.

Some service providers operate internationally and may process information in the United Kingdom, European Economic Area, United States or other countries. Where personal information is transferred outside the United Kingdom or EEA, the relevant organisation must use an appropriate transfer mechanism or safeguard required by applicable law. Further information is available in each provider’s privacy documentation.
Depending on applicable law and the circumstances, you may have the following rights in relation to personal information collected through cookies:
You may request a copy of the personal information held about you.
You may ask for inaccurate or incomplete personal information to be corrected.
You may ask for personal information to be deleted where the law gives you that right.
You may ask us to limit how personal information is used in certain circumstances.
You may request eligible information in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format.
You may object to certain processing of your personal information.
Where processing relies on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time without affecting processing carried out before withdrawal.
To exercise your rights, contact info@wormcount.com. You may also have the right to complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office or, where applicable, another relevant data protection authority.
Session cookies normally expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain until their stated expiry date or until you delete them. Cookie lifetimes vary according to their purpose and provider.
The expiry period shown for a cookie is not necessarily the same as the period for which information collected through that cookie is retained on a provider’s systems. We and our providers retain personal information only for as long as reasonably required for the relevant purpose, including security, fraud prevention, legal compliance, dispute handling, reporting and the establishment or defence of legal claims.
We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in the website, the services we use, technology, law or our business practices. We will update the “Last updated” date when material changes are made and may ask you to make a new cookie choice where appropriate.
