This Cookie Policy explains how Mission Outdoors Ltd, trading as Task Outdoor ("Task Outdoor", "we", "us"), uses cookies and similar technologies on our website. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, to improve how they function, and to provide information to the site owner. Similar technologies such as pixels, tags and local storage work in comparable ways, and where we refer to "cookies" in this policy we mean all of these technologies.
How we use cookies
We use cookies to operate our website and shopping cart, to keep the site secure, to understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it, and (where you have agreed) to support marketing and advertising. Some cookies are set by us and some are set by third parties that provide services to us, such as our e-commerce platform, analytics providers and advertising partners.
Types of cookies we use
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are essential for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as adding items to your cart, logging in, or filling in forms. The website cannot work properly without them, so they do not require your consent. Our store is hosted on Shopify, and these include cookies such as _session_id, cart, _secure_session_id and storefront_digest.
Analytics and performance cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information, such as which pages are visited most often and whether visitors encounter errors. This helps us improve how the site works. They include Shopify's own visitor statistics cookies such as _shopify_visit and _shopify_uniq. These cookies are only used where you have given your consent.
Marketing and advertising cookies
These cookies are set by us and by our advertising partners to build a profile of your interests, show you relevant adverts on other websites, and measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns. We use Google Ads and the Meta (Facebook and Instagram) Pixel for these purposes. These partners may set their own cookies and process your data in accordance with their own privacy policies. Marketing and advertising cookies are only used where you have given your consent.
Managing your cookie preferences
When you first visit our website you will be asked, through our cookie banner, to accept or decline non-essential cookies. You can change or withdraw your consent at any time using the cookie preferences option on our website. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled as the site cannot function without them.
You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse or delete cookies; the exact method depends on the browser you use. Please note that if you block strictly necessary cookies, parts of our website may not work correctly. For more information on how to manage cookies in your browser, visit the help pages for your particular browser.
Your rights and more information
For details of how we handle your personal data, the lawful bases we rely on, how long we keep it and your rights under UK data protection law, please see our Privacy Policy. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority, at ico.org.uk.
Changes to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or for operational, legal or regulatory reasons. Any changes will take effect when posted on this page, so please review it periodically.
