What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide information to website operators. Cookies may be session cookies, which expire when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them.
In addition to cookies, we may use similar technologies such as local storage, which stores data locally in your browser, and pixel tags, which track whether you have opened emails or visited specific pages on our website.

We use cookies on dynankle.world to ensure the website functions correctly, remember your privacy consent preferences, maintain session state when you navigate between pages, and analyse how visitors interact with our walking club product pages including memberships, walk passes, and trail gear.
Cookies help us understand which trail guides and product pages are most popular, how long visitors spend on our site, and whether they encounter any technical issues. This information allows us to improve the browsing experience and optimise our product offerings for Wellington walkers.
