Cookies and local storage
Tech Market uses a single, strictly necessary cookie to remember your language, and a little data stored in your browser for the basket, wishlist and comparison tool. No advertising, no third-party trackers.

Our approach
The website sets a single cookie, tm_lang, which is strictly necessary to remember the language you have chosen. We use no advertising or social network trackers and no analytics tools. Fonts are hosted on our own server. The items below are set by the website itself and are not shared with anyone.
The cookie and the data stored in your browser
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| tm_lang | First-party cookie (set by tech-market-boutique.com) | Language chosen with the EN / FR switcher (value en or fr), so that the website is shown in that language on your next visits; no tracking | 1 year |
| ft_cart_v1 | Local storage | Contents of your basket | Until you empty your basket or clear your browser data |
| ft_wishlist_v1 | Local storage | Your wishlist | Until you remove the items |
| ft_compare_v1 | Local storage | Products added to the comparison tool | Until you remove them |
| tm_currency | Local storage | Currency chosen with the £ / € switcher (pounds sterling by default) | Until you change currency or clear your browser data |
| ft_last_order | Local storage | Summary of your last order, shown on the confirmation page | Until your next order or until you clear your browser data |
Lawful basis and consent
The tm_lang language cookie, the basket, the wishlist, the comparison tool and the order summary are strictly necessary for the service you request, so they do not require your consent (regulation 6 of the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003; for visitors in France, article 82 of the French Data Protection Act). Nothing is stored for statistics or advertising.
How to delete this data
You can delete the data stored by the website at any time in your browser settings (privacy, cookies and site data). This empties your basket, wishlist and comparison list and forgets your language choice. The Information Commissioner’s Office explains cookies and how to manage them on ico.org.uk.
