These cookies are required for the website to operate properly. They may be used for security, page loading, cookie consent settings, contact form operation, account/login functions, payment-related security, or other essential website features.

Where live chat cookies are not strictly necessary, they should only be activated when the visitor consents or chooses to use the live chat function.

Embedded content cookies

Our website may include embedded content from third-party services, such as YouTube videos.

Embedded content may behave as if you visited the third-party website directly. For example, YouTube may set cookies or collect information about your device and interaction with the embedded video.

Payment-related cookies

Goodada may use Stripe or other payment service providers to process online payments or payment links.

Payment providers may use cookies or similar technologies for security, fraud prevention, payment processing and service functionality.

Some payment cookies may be strictly necessary to complete a payment requested by the user. Other payment-related tracking or analytics cookies may require consent.

Marketing and tracking cookies

Marketing or tracking cookies may be used to understand referral sources, measure campaign performance, support social media tools, or assess the effectiveness of marketing activity.

Goodada may use tools connected to platforms such as Pinterest, newsletter systems, CRM systems or other marketing tools.
