Cookies set by Amazon
When you click a “Check on Amazon UK” link, you leave our site and arrive at amazon.co.uk. Amazon sets its own cookies on your browser to track that the click came from our site (so they can pay us a commission if you buy something within 24 hours). Those cookies are set on amazon.co.uk, not washandsave.co.uk, we have no control over them and don’t read them.
Turning analytics off
If you previously clicked Accept and want to opt out, clear your browser’s cookies for washandsave.co.uk. The banner will reappear on your next visit; click Decline to keep analytics off.
You can also block Google Analytics globally with Google’s Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
