Cookie policy

01. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They allow a site to remember your preferences over time, so that a long-form essay on the Royal Oak does not have to load from zero on every visit. This policy explains which cookies we use, why we use them and how you can manage them — even between a quick Royal Pop and a coffee.

02. Categories we use

We use two categories of cookies:

• Essential — required to operate the reading room, remember your preferred language and protect form submissions.
• Analytics — optional and only set when you select Accept all. They help us understand which Royal Oak and Code 11.59 articles deserve a follow-up — useful even for the reader stopping in between a secure Salik top-up.

03. Specific cookies we set

The following cookies may be set on your device, all prefixed with hwl_:

• hwl_session — essential. Maintains your reading session so an article continues where it stopped if you return within the same visit. Expires when the browser is closed.
• hwl_csrf — essential. Protects each contact-form submission against cross-site request forgery. Expires after twenty-four hours.
• hwl_cookie_choice — essential. Records whether you accepted all cookies or only essential cookies, so the banner is not shown again. Expires after twelve months.
• hwl_lang — essential. Remembers your preferred interface language across reading sessions. Expires after twelve months.
• hwl_last_article — essential. Recalls the last Audemars Piguet article you opened (for example, a Royal Oak 15202 essay or a Code 11.59 note) so the next session can resume it. Expires after six months.
• hwl_ga — analytics. Anonymous statistics about which articles are read most, so we can plan future writing. Expires after fourteen months. Only set with consent.

04. Managing your preferences

You may withdraw or change your consent at any time by clearing site data in your browser and reloading the page — the cookie banner will reappear. You may also block cookies entirely in your browser settings, though doing so may prevent some convenience features of the reading room from operating.

05. Third-party cookies

Our font provider and hosting CDN may set short-lived technical cookies on their own domains to deliver the typography and static assets that compose each Audemars Piguet article. These cookies are controlled by the relevant providers and govern by their own privacy notices.

06. Changes to this policy

We may update this cookie policy from time to time to reflect changes to the cookies we use or the services we offer. Material changes will be announced on the website and the updated date will appear at the top of this page.
