Cookie Policy
Effective date: 24 July 2026
1. Introduction
This Cookie Policy explains how VALDORA LTD, trading through Cardvory (“Cardvory”, “we”, “us” or “our”), uses cookies and similar storage and access technologies on https://cardvory.com (the “Website”).
Cardvory is an online store offering digital products, including game keys, software licences, gift cards and related digital products. We use cookies to operate the Website, maintain shopping-cart and checkout functionality, protect the Website, remember user preferences and, where permitted, measure Website performance and marketing activity.
This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They allow a website to recognise your browser, remember certain information and provide functions such as account login, shopping-cart management and checkout.
Similar technologies may include pixels, tags, local storage, scripts and other technologies that store information on, or access information from, your device.
3. Legal Framework
Our use of cookies is governed, where applicable, by the UK General Data Protection Regulation, the Data Protection Act 2018 and the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003 (“PECR”).
Strictly necessary cookies may be used without consent where they are required to provide a service requested by you, such as maintaining your shopping cart, processing checkout steps, protecting the Website or keeping you signed in. Non-essential analytics, advertising and tracking cookies are used only after the required consent has been obtained.
4. Categories of Cookies We Use
4.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are required for the Website to function. They may support security, fraud prevention, account authentication, shopping-cart management, checkout, order processing and cookie-preference storage. Because these cookies are necessary to provide the Website and services requested by you, they cannot normally be disabled through our consent banner.
4.2 Functional Cookies
Functional cookies remember choices and settings, such as interface preferences or previously selected options. Depending on how a particular cookie is used, your consent may be requested before it is placed.
4.3 Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the Website, identify technical issues and measure Website performance. Where consent is required, these cookies are not placed until you accept them.
4.4 Marketing and Tracking Cookies
Marketing and tracking cookies may be used to measure advertising performance, understand campaign activity or show more relevant advertising. These cookies are not placed unless you provide consent where required.
5. Cookies That May Be Used
The table below describes common cookies associated with our WordPress, WooCommerce, consent-management and analytics configuration. The exact cookies used may change when Website services, plugins or integrations are updated. The live cookie banner and consent-management tool should be treated as the current record of active cookie categories.

6. Third-Party Services
Some Website functions may be provided by third parties, including payment, security, analytics, hosting or other technical service providers. These providers may set cookies or use similar technologies when their services are active. Non-essential third-party technologies are blocked until consent is obtained where required.
The availability of a third-party service does not mean that all cookies listed by that provider are active on every visit.
7. Managing Your Consent
When you first visit the Website, the cookie banner allows you to accept, reject or customise non-essential cookies. Rejecting non-essential cookies should be as accessible as accepting them.
You may change or withdraw your consent at any time by reopening the Cookie Settings tool available on the Website. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
Strictly necessary cookies remain active because they are required for core Website functions.
8. Browser Controls
Most browsers allow you to view, block or delete cookies through browser settings. Blocking all cookies may prevent parts of the Website from working, including account login, shopping-cart and checkout functions.
Browser settings operate separately from the consent choices stored by our cookie banner.
9. Your Data Protection Rights
Depending on the circumstances and applicable law, you may have rights to:
- request access to your personal data;
- request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data;
- request erasure of personal data;
- request restriction of processing;
- object to certain processing;
- receive certain personal data in a portable format;
