1. Scope

This Cookie Policy explains how HILLMARK CONSULTING LTD uses cookies, local storage, session storage, pixels, SDKs, and similar technologies on Brightskins. It should be read with the Privacy Policy.

We use these technologies in line with PECR, UK GDPR, EU GDPR where applicable, and the Data Protection Act 2018.

2. Necessary cookies

• Authentication and Steam sign-in cookies that keep your session active and secure.
• Cart, checkout, order, security, load-balancing, fraud-prevention, and consent-management cookies.
• These cookies are required for Brightskins to work and are usually stored for the session or for a short security period unless a longer period is needed for fraud prevention or legal records.

3. Analytics cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand page performance, traffic sources, errors, and user journeys. Where legally required, analytics cookies are used only with your consent.

Typical retention is up to 24 months, unless a shorter period is configured by the analytics provider or required by law.

4. Marketing cookies

Marketing cookies may be used to measure campaigns, prevent repeated ads, and understand whether marketing activity is effective. We use marketing cookies only where we have the required consent.

Typical retention is up to 13 months unless the relevant provider uses a shorter period or you withdraw consent earlier.

5. Preference and security storage

• Preference storage may remember language, currency, interface choices, and display settings.
• Security storage may record risk events, anti-abuse signals, fraud controls, or checkout integrity checks.
• Preference storage may last until you clear browser storage or change settings. Security records may be retained as described in the Privacy Policy.

6. Managing consent

You can manage non-essential cookie consent through the consent tools provided on Brightskins, where available, and through your browser settings. You may withdraw consent at any time.

Blocking necessary cookies may prevent Steam login, cart functions, checkout, support, fraud checks, and order delivery from working correctly.

7. Updates and contact

We may update this Cookie Policy when our technologies, vendors, retention periods, or legal requirements change.
