This Cookies Policy explains how Melumi ("we", "us", "our") uses cookies on our website.

2. Cookies We Actually Use

Melumi keeps cookie use to an absolute minimum. The only cookie set by this website is described below. We do not use any other cookie, tracking pixel, or similar technology beyond what is stated here.

Please note that blocking the gdpr_consent cookie itself will not prevent the site from working, but it will mean your preference cannot be remembered between visits.

As a UK resident, you have rights under the UK GDPR, including the right to access, correct, or request deletion of personal data associated with your cookie preferences, and the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) if you believe your data has been mishandled.
