Region Selector Cookie – This is a 60-day cookie which informs Amplid.com’s servers which country a return visitor selected previously, saving website visitors time and improving the browsing experience.
Shopware Session Cookies – Amplid’s ecommerce platform “Shopware” stores a Session ID cookie in the visitor's browser for basic settings and functionality. By using the session cookie, Shopware decides whether the relevant user has an active shopping cart and whether the user is logged in. It therefore serves as identification between browser and server. Amplid’s shop cannot be used without permitting cookies in the browser. For security purposes Shopware also places a CSRF cookie on visitors’ computers so they may navigate the individual areas of the shop safely. An SLT cookie enables the shop to recognise returning customers when a previous session has expired. Cookies are assigned to your browser by Shopware to increase security, remember preferences and improve your user experience.

The aggregated information is used to better understand Amplid’s customers, how the website is used and to optimize advertising. Google Adwords cookies enable conversion tracking and retargeted advertising.
Those who do not wish for their data to be shared with website owners using Google tools can download an opt-out browser add-on from Google. Further information can be found here - https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/181881
