Cookie policy

"Lyst" means LYST LTD (a company incorporated in England and Wales, with company number 07132083 and with a registered office at The Minster Building 7th Floor, 21 Mincing Lane, London EC3R 7AG). Lyst is also referred to in this Cookie Policy as "we", "us", "our", and "ours".

This Cookie Policy applies to all of Lyst’s websites and mobile applications (the “Sites”) and any other platforms Lyst owns or controls and makes available (the “Lyst Platforms”). We refer to the Sites and the Lyst Platforms as the “Services”. This Cookie Policy also applies to any other linked pages or blogs, features, content (including any information, text, graphics, photos, lists of items compiled by you, comments, reviews, links, or other materials uploaded, downloaded or appearing on, or linked to the Services), or applications offered from time to time by Lyst in connection therewith (collectively the "Content").

Any changes to this policy will be posted here. We reserve the right to vary this Cookie Policy from time to time and such changes shall become effective as soon as they are posted.

What are “Cookies”?

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on your device when you visit certain websites. We use cookies to understand how you interact with our Services and distinguish you from other users of our Services. Among other benefits, this allows us to make improvements to the information and design of the Services and to provide you with a better customer experience (such as remembering what’s in your online basket without you having to put the items in your basket again).

It is easy to change your cookie settings. Please see ‘How do you opt-out of targeted advertising and control other cookie settings?’ for further information. However please be aware that if you block or erase cookies your online experience with the Services may be affected.

What type of cookies do we use and why?

We use the following categories of cookies on the Lyst Platforms:

• Strictly necessary cookies. These are cookies that are required for the operation of our Services. They include, for example, cookies that enable you to log into secure areas of our Services, use a shopping cart or make use of e-billing services. Without these cookies, we may not be able to provide services you may ask for, such as remembering your login details or shopping basket.

• Analytical/performance cookies. These cookies allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around our Services when they are using them. This helps us to improve the way our Services work, for example, by ensuring that users are finding what they are looking for easily. These cookies collect anonymous information only and do not show personal details.

• Functionality cookies. These are used to recognise you when you return to our Services and to remember the choices you make (for example, your choice of language or region). This enables us to personalise our Content for you, greet you by name and remember your preferences.

• Targeting cookies. These cookies are usually placed by third-party advertisers and advertising networks, and record your visit to our Services, the pages you have visited and the links you have followed. Although these cookies can track your visits around the web, they don’t know who you are. The information collected by these cookies is used to make our Services more relevant to your interests and to target advertising to you online that may be of interest to you. They do not increase the number of adverts that you will be shown, but they will help limit the number of times you see the same advert. To opt-out of our use of these cookies, please refer to ‘How do you opt-out of targeted advertising and control other cookie settings?’

What about third-party cookies?

Third parties (for example, advertising networks and providers of external services like web traffic analysis services) also store cookies on your device, over which we have no control. Third parties use these cookies to provide services to us, such as analytics/performance monitoring, or targeted advertising. Below we have listed the third parties that place cookies on the Lyst Platforms, along with an explanation of what those third parties do with the information collected. For further information on these cookies and how to opt-out, please see the third-party links provided.

How do you opt-out of targeted advertising and control other cookie settings?

• You can adjust your cookie preferences by activating the setting on your browser that allows you to refuse the setting of all or some cookies. The "Help" feature on most browsers will tell you how to stop your browser from accepting new cookies. It should also tell you how to set up the browser to notify you when you receive a new cookie and how to disable cookies entirely. Additionally, you can disable or delete similar data used by browser add-ons, such as flash cookies, by changing the add-ons settings or visiting the website of the browser manufacturer.

• You can opt-out of third third-party cookies that track activity in connection with targeting advertising by visiting the Digital Advertising Alliance’s consumer choice page (http://optout.aboutads.info) or the Network Advertising Initiative’s consumer choice page (http://optout.networkadvertising.org) or the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance consumer choice page (http://youronlinechoices.eu). Please note that this setting will be deleted if you delete your cookies.

• You can also adjust your third-party cookie preferences directly with the relevant third party. Please see ‘What about third party cookies?’ above for further details.
