Cookie Policy
Last updated: April 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Milanto Coffee uses cookies and similar technologies on milantocoffee.com. It applies alongside our Privacy Policy and is governed by the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and UK GDPR.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your web browser when you visit a website. They allow the website to remember information about your visit — for example, that you are signed in, or what is in your shopping cart. Some cookies are deleted when you close your browser (session cookies); others remain on your device until they expire or are deleted (persistent cookies).
2. How we use cookies
We use a minimal set of cookies. We do not use advertising cookies, third-party tracking cookies, or any cookies that build a profile of you for marketing purposes. The cookies we use fall into three categories: strictly necessary, functional, and analytics.
3. Cookies we use
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are required for the website to function. Without them, services you have asked for — such as staying signed in or maintaining your cart — cannot be provided. You cannot opt out of these cookies while using the site.

secure_customer_sig | Keeps you signed in to your account securely. | 20 years (refreshed on activity) |
Functional cookies
These cookies remember your preferences and improve your experience. Disabling them may mean some features do not work as expected.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
wishlist | Stores your saved machines wishlist between visits. | 30 days |
Analytics cookies
We use Vercel Analytics and Vercel Speed Insights to understand how visitors use our site — for example, which pages are viewed most and how quickly pages load. These tools do not collect personally identifiable information and do not use persistent tracking cookies. Under PECR guidance, privacy-preserving analytics of this nature do not require explicit consent, but we disclose their use here in the interest of transparency.
| Tool | Purpose | Data collected |
|---|---|---|
| Vercel Analytics | Anonymised page view tracking to understand site usage. | Page URL, referrer, country, device type (no personal identifiers) |
| Vercel Speed Insights | Page performance monitoring. | Load times, Core Web Vitals metrics (no personal identifiers) |
4. Third-party cookies
Some cookies on our site are set by third-party services we use. We do not control these cookies — they are governed by the privacy policies of the respective services:
- Shopify — sets cookies to manage your cart, checkout, and account session. See Shopify's Cookie Policy.
- Formspree — may set a session cookie when you submit a contact form to protect against spam. See Formspree's Privacy Policy.
5. Managing cookies
You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Please note that disabling strictly necessary or functional cookies will affect how the website works — you may not be able to stay signed in or use your cart.

We will update this policy if we change the cookies we use. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page will reflect any changes. We recommend checking this page periodically.
