Cookie Policy

This cookie policy explains how vesta.scot uses cookies and similar tools. It should be read with our Privacy Policy.

UK law (UK GDPR and PECR) means we can use strictly necessary cookies to run the shop. Anything else — such as analytics — waits until you choose.

How to choose

On your first visit a banner asks you to accept all cookies, reject optional cookies, or manage categories. Necessary cookies stay on. You can change your mind at any time with Cookie settings in the footer. Your choice is stored for up to six months.
