Last updated: 18 May 2026 — Compliant with ePrivacy Directive (2002/58/EC), GDPR, and the CNIL recommendation of 17 September 2020 on cookies and trackers.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser when you visit a website. They allow batizz.com to remember things like your cart contents, your cookie-consent choice, and (with your permission) anonymous analytics that help us understand how the site is used.
2. The principle: consent for non-essential cookies
We do not place analytics or marketing cookies on your device until you have consented through our cookie banner. You can also refuse them or limit them to specific categories using “Manage” in the banner or the “Manage cookies” link in our footer. Refusing analytics or marketing cookies does not affect your ability to use the site.
