Full disclosure of cookies used by AvonPunt under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR) and UK GDPR. Last reviewed: May 2026.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. They may also take the form of similar technologies such as localStorage and sessionStorage objects stored in your browser. PECR Regulation 6 requires that AvonPunt obtain your informed consent before placing any non-essential cookies or similar technologies on your device.

Google LLC, acting as a data processor, processes this data under standard contractual clauses. You can opt out of Google Analytics across all sites via the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Marketing and Advertising Cookies

AvonPunt does not place first-party marketing or advertising cookies. Affiliate tracking links redirect to operator sites via affiliate network platforms; any cookies placed by those platforms are governed by the respective operator's cookie policy. We recommend reviewing the cookie policy of any operator you visit via links on this site.

Third-Party Embeds

This site does not embed third-party video players, social media widgets, or live-chat tools that place cookies independently of your AvonPunt consent choices. All external content is linked to rather than embedded.

Managing Your Preferences

You may change your cookie preferences at any time via the cookie settings panel, accessible by clicking "Settings" on the cookie banner displayed at the foot of each page on your first visit. You may also manage cookies directly through your browser settings. Note that disabling all cookies may affect the functionality of websites you visit.

Google Consent Mode

AvonPunt implements Google Consent Mode v2. When you decline analytics or marketing consent, Google tags are loaded in a "consent denied" state: no measurement cookies are set, and any data transmitted to Google is used only for modelling and spam protection, not personalisation or cross-site tracking. When you grant consent, the consent state is updated and measurement cookies are placed as described above.
