This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy and our Terms and Conditions.
On your first visit to the website we show you a cookie consent banner. Only strictly necessary cookies are set before you make a choice. Other cookies (analytics and marketing) are loaded only after you give your explicit consent through that banner.
Cookies are small text files stored on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognize your device and remember if you have been to the website before.
Cookies are a very common web technology; most websites use cookies and have done so for years. Cookies are widely used to make the website work more efficiently.
Cookies are used to measure which parts of the website users visit and to personalize their experience. Cookies also provide information that helps us monitor and improve the website’s performance.
When you arrive on the website for the first time you will see a cookie banner that lets you:
You can change or withdraw your choice at any time by clicking the Cookie Settings link in the footer of any page on this site. Your decision is stored in a first-party cookie called somni_cookie_consent together with the date and the categories you allowed, so we can demonstrate when and how your consent was given. The record is refreshed if you change your choice and re-requested if our cookie categories materially change.
If you do not want cookies to be stored on your device at all, you can adjust the setting of your Internet browser to reject the setting of all or some cookies and to alert you when a cookie is placed on your device. For further information about how to do so, please refer to your browser’s “help”, “tools”, or “edit” section. Please note that if you use your browser settings to block all cookies, including strictly necessary cookies, you may not be able to access or use all or parts of the functionalities of Somni.
If you want to remove previously-stored cookies, you can manually delete the cookies at any time. Note that cookies set by third parties (such as Google, ShareASale or Awin) on their own domains can only be deleted through your browser, not by us.
We have provided the links for the management and blocking of cookies depending on the browser you use:
We use first-party cookies to keep the site working correctly (for example, to remember that you have set your cookie preferences, to keep your checkout session open, or to support security measures). We also use them, with your consent, to collect anonymous information on how people use our website and which pages they visit. We always use cookie data responsibly.
Third-party cookies may come from partners or third-party companies that provide functional web services or tools for our website. We currently rely on the following third parties: Stripe (payment processing – strictly necessary), Google Analytics (analytics – only with consent), ShareASale and Awin (affiliate marketing – only with consent). You may opt out at any time using the Cookie Settings link or your browser controls.
We use persistent cookies to improve your experience when using Somni. This includes recording your acceptance of our Cookie Policy so the banner does not reappear on every page. Persistent cookies remain on your device until deleted manually, automatically by their expiry date, or by you withdrawing consent and clearing them.
Session cookies keep the session open for users when they interact with the website and the checkout. Session cookies are temporary and are deleted from your machine when the session is closed and the browser is closed. We use session cookies to keep your basket and order in progress and to identify you within our checkout flow.
The data collected by Somni and/or through cookies that may be placed on your computer will not be kept for longer than is necessary to fulfill the purposes mentioned above.
These cookies allow you to share our website and click “Like” on social networks such as Instagram, Twitter, Google, LinkedIn, etc. They also allow you to interact with each distinct platform’s content. The way these cookies are used and the information gathered is governed by the privacy policy of each social platform.
Our cookies are grouped into the following categories. The banner lets you control everything except Strictly Necessary, which is required for the site to work.
Strictly Necessary: Essential for Somni to perform its basic functions, including security, the checkout and the payment process. No consent is required.
Analytics and Performance: Help us understand how visitors interact with our website, which pages are visited the most, and how features are used. We use these details to improve the site. Loaded only after you turn Analytics on in the banner.
Marketing & Affiliate: Used to measure the effectiveness of our advertising and affiliate partnerships (ShareASale, Awin). Loaded only after you turn Marketing on in the banner.
Google Analytics. We use Google Analytics provided by Google, Inc., USA (“Google”). These tools and technologies collect and analyze certain types of information, including IP addresses, device and software identifiers, referring and exit URLs, feature use metrics and statistics, usage and purchase history, media access control address (MAC Address), mobile unique device identifiers, and other similar information via the use of cookies. The information generated by Google Analytics (including your IP address) may be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. We use the Google Analytics collection of data to enhance the website and improve our service. The Google Analytics tag is only loaded after you grant consent.
