What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies, such as your browser's local storage, work in a comparable way. They help a website work, keep you signed in, and remember your choices.
How we use them
On our own pages, Fourth View Trading Company uses only cookies and browser storage that are strictly necessary for our website to function, such as keeping you signed in and remembering the currency you choose. We do not use analytics or advertising cookies on our own pages, and we do not use cookies to track you across other websites.
When you choose to pay, our payment provider, Paystack, loads its own payment form and may set its own cookies. These are listed below.

Location and currency
To show prices in a suitable currency, we use your approximate country, determined from your connection by our hosting provider. We do not store it on your device, and we do not use it for analytics or advertising. You can choose a different currency at any time.
Managing cookies in your browser
You can block or delete cookies and local storage through your browser settings. Doing so may stop parts of the site from working. For example, you may be signed out, your prices may reset to the default currency, or you may be unable to complete a payment.
Changes to this policy
If we start using other cookies, such as for analytics, we will update this page and ask for your consent where the law requires it.
