Cookies and Tracking

SC:UK uses only essential cookies required to operate the website, maintain security, and enable basic functionality such as login sessions or shopping cart persistence.

We do not use analytics, advertising, or tracking cookies. Because only essential cookies are used, no cookie consent banner or settings control is required under PECR.
