Last updated: 22 September 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how 99c Book Store, trading through 99cbook.store (“99cbook.store”, “we”, “us” or “our”), uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website.

99cbook.store is an Ireland-based online store selling digital e-books.

This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy.


1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, phone, tablet or other device when you visit a website.

Cookies can allow a website to remember information about your visit, maintain a shopping session, process transactions and provide other functionality.

Some technologies similar to cookies, such as pixels, local storage and other tracking technologies, may also be used for similar purposes.


2. Why does 99cbook.store use cookies?

We may use cookies and similar technologies for purposes including:

  • Operating the website;
  • Maintaining shopping-cart functionality;
  • Processing purchases;
  • Maintaining your session while using the website;
  • Providing secure access to website functionality;
  • Providing digital downloads;
  • Remembering necessary preferences;
  • Understanding how the website is used;
  • Improving website performance and functionality; and
  • Marketing or advertising, where applicable and where you have provided the required consent.

3. Strictly necessary cookies

Some cookies are necessary for the website or a service you have specifically requested to function.

For example, WooCommerce may use cookies to support shopping-cart and checkout functionality.

Where a cookie is strictly necessary to provide a service explicitly requested by you, consent may not be required under applicable ePrivacy rules.

The Irish Data Protection Commission recognises an exemption for cookies that are strictly necessary to provide an information-society service explicitly requested by the user, such as cookies required for an online shopping cart.

These cookies may be used for purposes such as:

  • Maintaining your shopping cart;
  • Processing checkout;
  • Maintaining login or session information;
  • Supporting secure areas of the website;
  • Remembering necessary website preferences; and
  • Providing access to digital products.

4. Non-essential cookies

We may use cookies or similar technologies that are not strictly necessary for the operation of the website.

These may include technologies used for:

  • Website analytics;
  • Performance monitoring;
  • Advertising;
  • Marketing;
  • Conversion measurement; or
  • Other forms of tracking.

Where consent is legally required, we will ask for your consent before using these technologies.

You can refuse non-essential cookies without affecting your ability to use essential website functions, although some optional website features may not be available.


5. Marketing and advertising cookies

If we introduce advertising, conversion tracking or other marketing technologies that use cookies or similar tracking technologies, we will obtain consent where required by applicable law.

We will not treat your consent to marketing cookies as a condition of purchasing an e-book.


6. Third-party cookies

Some cookies or similar technologies may be placed by third-party service providers.

These may include services associated with:

  • PayPal;
  • WooCommerce;
  • WordPress;
  • MailPoet;
  • Website hosting;
  • Email services;
  • Security services; and
  • Other services or plugins used on 99cbook.store.

Third parties may process information collected through their technologies in accordance with their own privacy policies.

The exact third-party cookies used on 99cbook.store may change as our website, plugins and services change.


7. PayPal

When you use PayPal to make a purchase, PayPal may use cookies and other technologies as part of its payment and security services.

PayPal’s own privacy and cookie information applies to its processing of information through its services.

We do not control cookies or similar technologies operated by PayPal.


8. MailPoet

We use MailPoet for email and marketing functionality.

Depending on the configuration of the service, MailPoet may process information relating to email subscriptions, communications and interactions.

Marketing emails are only sent to people who have expressly subscribed to receive them.


9. Managing cookie preferences

Where consent is required, you can manage your cookie preferences through the cookie-consent controls provided on the website.

You can also control or delete cookies through your browser settings.

Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies may prevent parts of the website, including shopping-cart or checkout functionality, from working correctly.

Where consent is required, you must be able to withdraw or change your consent. The Irish Data Protection Commission states that withdrawing consent should be as easy as giving it.


10. Browser controls

Most modern web browsers allow you to:

  • See which cookies are stored;
  • Delete existing cookies;
  • Block cookies;
  • Block third-party cookies; and
  • Receive warnings before cookies are stored.

Browser settings vary, so you should consult the help section of your particular browser for instructions.


11. How long do cookies remain?

Cookies may be either:

Session cookies

These are temporary cookies that normally expire when you close your browser.

Persistent cookies

These remain on your device for a specified period or until you delete them.

The lifespan of a particular cookie depends on its purpose and the service that sets it.

We will seek to ensure that information about cookies used by 99cbook.store accurately reflects the technologies actually operating on the website.


12. Changes to this Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy when our website, plugins, third-party services, cookies or applicable legal requirements change.

The “Last updated” date at the beginning of this policy will be updated when changes are made.
