Cookie Policy

Last updated: 2026-10-11

At a glance

  • We use a few necessary cookies for sign-in, security, your cart and your theme.
  • Google Analytics is off until you choose Accept. Decline and Necessary both keep it off.
  • We never use cookies for advertising, retargeting or selling your data.
  • You can change your choice at any time.

1. Necessary cookies

These keep the site working, so they are always on:

  • Sign-in and security: keep you signed in (up to 7 days, or until you sign out) and protect forms from forgery. They can't be read by page scripts and are sent only over HTTPS.
  • Cart (smt_cart): remembers your cart for 30 days.
  • Recently viewed (smt_recent): remembers products you looked at for 90 days.
  • Theme (theme): remembers light or dark mode for a year.

2. Other things kept in your browser

These are not cookies and are never sent to Google or any other third party. Our own server uses two random keys to count page views and time on page: one for the tab, gone when you close it, and one that recognises your browser when you come back, gone when you clear site data. We also keep your cookie choice and a simple “visited before” flag. None of this identifies you unless you are signed in. See the Privacy Policy.

3. Analytics (only if you accept)

If you choose Accept, we load Google Analytics (and Google Tag Manager, where we use it) to understand how the site is used. Google then sets _ga and _ga_<id> cookies, which last up to about 2 years. All advertising signals stay switched off, so the data is never used for ads. Until you accept, neither loads and nothing is sent to Google.

4. Your choice

Decline and Necessary do the same thing: analytics stays off and the necessary cookies above keep working. Your choice is saved in your browser. To change it, use ; switching analytics off takes effect from your next page load. You can also delete cookies in your browser settings, but deleting necessary cookies signs you out and empties your cart.

5. Other services and contact

Razorpay's payment window and Google sign-in may set their own cookies, governed by Razorpay's and Google's privacy policies. Questions: email support@swapmytech.com. We acknowledge within 48 hours and resolve within 30 days.
