Cookie Policy
This page lists the cookies and browser storage the Hearth & Co website uses.
Last updated: 8 November 2026
We use the cookies and storage the website needs to work. With your permission, we also use Google Analytics cookies to see how the site is used, and Meta advertising cookies to measure our ads and show you relevant ones. One choice covers both, and you can change it at any time.

The two _medusa cookies are set by us, are not readable by scripts in your browser, and are sent only to our own website. They are needed for the cart and your account to work, so they are essential. The theme setting stays on your device and is not sent to us.
Analytics cookies
Google Analytics cookies are only set if you accept them in our cookie banner, and declining does not affect shopping. If you accept, Google receives the pages and products you view, items you add to your cart, when you start checkout, the value of your purchase, and your IP address and browser details. We do not send Google your name, email, phone number, delivery address or order number. We turn off Google signals and ad personalisation, and Google Analytics keeps what it receives for 14 months. See our Privacy Policy for details.
Advertising cookies
Meta's advertising cookies are only set if you accept them in our cookie banner, and declining does not affect shopping. If you accept, Meta receives the pages and products you view, items you add to your cart, the value of your purchase, and your IP address and browser details. Meta may also use its own cookies on its own websites. See our Privacy Policy for details.
We do not use any other analytics or error-monitoring services that collect your personal information. If that changes, we will update this policy and ask for your consent first where it is needed.
Your choices
You can change your analytics and advertising cookie choice at any time: . You can also delete or block cookies in your browser settings. If you block the two essential cookies, your cart, checkout and account will not work properly. More about how we handle personal information is in our Privacy Policy.
