Last updated: 1 October 2026
1. About This Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how Metaleap Ltd, trading as Shop Leather Jackets (company number 16000256, 5 Darbyshire Close, Bolton, England, BL1 4BR, United Kingdom), uses cookies and similar technologies on shopleatherjackets.com.
It follows the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR), the UK GDPR, the EU ePrivacy Directive and the EU GDPR. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device. Similar technologies include local storage and session storage in your browser. In this policy, “cookies” means all of these.
- First-party cookies are set by our website. Third-party cookies are set by another company whose service we use, such as Stripe.
- Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies stay until they expire or you delete them.
3. Our Approach in Brief
- We use cookies that are strictly necessary to run the shop, cookies that remember choices you make on the site, and our own order attribution cookies. These record how you found us, for example through Google search or an advert.
- For visitors in the UK, EU, EEA and Switzerland, we do not set Google Analytics or advertising cookies.
- Our order attribution data stays on our own website. It is never shared with or sold to anyone, and it is not used to build advertising profiles.
- You can object to order attribution cookies at any time (see section 4.3).
4. Cookies We Use

4.3 Order Attribution Cookies (First-Party Statistics)
These cookies are set by WooCommerce, our shop software. They record how you arrived at our website, such as the referring website, search engine or advert, the page you landed on and how many pages you viewed. If you place an order, this information is saved with it, so we can see which channels lead to sales and improve our website and marketing.
The data is stored only on our own website. It is not shared with Google or any other third party, and it is not used to track you across other websites.

4.4 Google Analytics and Google Ads (Consent Mode)
We use Google Analytics to understand how our website is used, and Google Ads to measure our adverts. Both run in Google Consent Mode.
- Visitors in the UK, EU, EEA and Switzerland: analytics and advertising storage is set to “denied”. Google does not place or read analytics or advertising cookies on your device. Google may receive basic, cookieless signals, such as a page view or a purchase event without any identifier, which it uses to produce aggregated, estimated reports.

5. Other Third Parties

- Our product pages include share links for social networks, such as Pinterest and WhatsApp. These are plain links and set no cookies. Once you click one, you are on the social network’s website and its own cookie policy applies.
6. Website Administrator Cookies
Some cookies, such as wp-settings-*, are set only for our own staff when they are logged in to manage the website. They are never set for customers.
7. Managing Cookies in Your Browser
You can view, block and delete cookies in your browser settings. If you block strictly necessary cookies, the basket and checkout will not work.
You can also opt out of Google Analytics on all websites with the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
