Cookie Policy
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are tiny files that live in your browser, helping websites (like ours!) remember who you are and what you like. Think of them as little notes that say, “Hey, this person loves dark mode and hates pop-ups!”
Why Do We Use Cookies?
Good question! Here’s what our cookies help with:
Making the site work: Some cookies are essential. Without them, the site might break, and we don’t want that!
Improving your experience: Cookies remember your preferences, so you don’t have to reset them every time you visit.
Analytics and stats: We use cookies to figure out what’s working (and what’s not) so we can make the site better for you. Don’t worry—it’s all anonymous, and we won’t sell your data to shady characters.
Ads (sometimes): If you see ads, cookies might help make them more relevant to you. No one likes irrelevant ads, right?
Types of Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies: Without these, the website would be as useful as a chocolate teapot.
Performance Cookies: These tell us what’s hot (and what’s not) on the site.
Functionality Cookies: They remember your choices, like your favourite language or if you prefer cats over dogs.
Targeting Cookies: These make ads more "you" and less “Buy this thing you’ve never heard of!”
Can You Say No to Cookies?
Absolutely! Here’s how:
Most browsers let you manage or delete cookies. Check your settings.
You can also use our cookie settings pop-up (you probably saw it when you arrived) to pick which cookies you’re cool with.
But fair warning: if you block essential cookies, some parts of the site might not work, and that would be sad.
What About Your Data?
We take your privacy seriously. We don’t use cookies to spy on you, and we won’t sell your data. Ever. For more on how we handle your info, check out our Privacy Policy.

Thanks for reading, and enjoy your time here! Just don’t blame us if you start craving real cookies.
🛡️ Our Data Policy: Keeping Your Info Safe and Sound
Hello, Data Owner! 👋
We know your data is important to you, and it’s important to us too. So here’s the deal: we’re committed to protecting your personal information, respecting your rights, and keeping everything GDPR-friendly (because fines are not our vibe).
Here’s the lowdown on how we handle your data:
Who Are We?
We’re Sonar, and we run this website. If you’ve got questions about your data, you can email our Data Protection Officer (fancy title, right?) at [hello@sonarpresents.com].
What Data Do We Collect?
We only collect what we need to make your experience awesome. Here’s what we might ask for:
Stuff you share: Like your name, email, or phone number when you sign up for something.
Stuff we observe: Like how you use our website (e.g., “Wow, they really love that cat GIF section!”).
Stuff you agree to share: Like cookies, which we use for analytics, personalization, and, yes, ads sometimes.
Why Do We Collect Your Data?
We use your data to:
Keep the website running smoothly.
Give you what you’ve asked for (like an account or newsletter).
Improve your experience by learning what you like.
Meet legal obligations, because laws are a thing.
We never sell your data. No shady deals here!
What’s Our Legal Basis for Using Your Data?
Under GDPR, we’ve got to have a good reason for using your info. Here are ours:
You gave us permission (e.g., ticking a box or clicking "yes").
We’ve got a contract (e.g., you bought something from us).
It’s in our legitimate interest (e.g., running the website).
We have to (e.g., the taxman says so).
How Long Do We Keep Your Data?
Not forever! We only keep your info as long as we need to:
Provide you with our services.
Comply with legal obligations.
Avoid looking like hoarders.
When we don’t need it anymore, we’ll delete it. Simple as that.
Your GDPR Rights
Here’s what you can do:
Access your data: Want to know what we’ve got? Just ask!
Correct your data: Spotted a typo? Let us know.
Delete your data: Want a clean slate? No problem (unless we legally need to keep it).
Restrict processing: Not a fan of how we’re using your info? Say the word.
Data portability: Need your data for another service? We’ll help you transfer it.
Object: Not into marketing emails? Opt-out anytime.
To exercise these rights, email us at [hello@sonar.com].
Where Does Your Data Go?
We mostly keep your info within the EU/EEA, but sometimes it might need to travel (digitally). If it does, we’ll make sure it’s protected, like sending it with a data security passport.
Security: How Do We Keep Your Data Safe?
We use strong passwords, encryption, firewalls, and other fancy tech tools to keep your data out of the wrong hands.
Questions or Complaints?
If you’ve got any questions, email us at [hello@sonar.com]. Not happy with our response? You can take it up with your local data protection authority (but we hope it won’t come to that).
Updates to This Policy
We’ll keep this policy fresh. If anything changes, we’ll let you know (probably with a polite pop-up).
Thanks for trusting us with your data—now go enjoy the website! 😊
