What are cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners in order to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Meadowmoon) are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., advertising, interactive content, and analytics). The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.

Why do we use cookies?

We use first- and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our Website to operate, and we refer to these as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. Other cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Online Properties. Third parties serve cookies through our Website for advertising, analytics, and other purposes. This is described in more detail below.

How can I control cookies?

The Cookie Consent Manager can be found in the notification banner and on our website. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our website though your access to some functionality and areas of our website may be restricted. You may also set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies.

How can I control cookies on my browser?

As the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser to browser, you should visit your browser's help menu for more information. The following is information about how to manage cookies on the most popular browsers:
In addition, most advertising networks offer you a way to opt out of targeted advertising. If you would like to find out more information, please visit:

What about other tracking technologies, like web beacons?

Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We may use other, similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called "tracking pixels" or "clear gifs"). These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enables us to recognize when someone has visited our Website or opened an email including them. This allows us, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within a website to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to the website from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to improve site performance, and to measure the success of email marketing campaigns. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and so declining cookies will impair their functioning.

Do you use Flash cookies or Local Shared Objects?

Websites may also use so-called "Flash Cookies" (also known as Local Shared Objects or "LSOs") to, among other things, collect and store information about your use of our services, fraud prevention, and for other site operations.

If you do not want Flash Cookies stored on your computer, you can adjust the settings of your Flash player to block Flash Cookies storage using the tools contained in the Website Storage Settings Panel. You can also control Flash Cookies by going to the Global Storage Settings Panel and following the instructions (which may include instructions that explain, for example, how to delete existing Flash Cookies (referred to "information" on the Macromedia site), how to prevent Flash LSOs from being placed on your computer without your being asked, and (for Flash Player 8 and later) how to block Flash Cookies that are not being delivered by the operator of the page you are on at the time).

Please note that setting the Flash Player to restrict or limit acceptance of Flash Cookies may reduce or impede the functionality of some Flash applications, including, potentially, Flash applications used in connection with our services or online content.

Do you serve targeted advertising?

Third parties may serve cookies on your computer or mobile device to serve advertising through our Website. These companies may use information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services that you may be interested in. They may also employ technology that is used to measure the effectiveness of advertisements. They can accomplish this by using cookies or web beacons to collect information about your visits to this and other sites in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services of potential interest to you. The information collected through this process does not enable us or them to identify your name, contact details, or other details that directly identify you unless you choose to provide these.

How often will you update this Cookie Policy?

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Please therefore revisit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.

The date at the top of this Cookie Policy indicates when it was last updated.

Materials

All our clothes are made from 100% GOTS Certified Organic Cotton or 100% Recycled Polyester in some of our bags.

Organic cotton farming methods are better for producers and the ecosystem around the farms. Instead of more toxic pesticides and fertilisers, co-planting and insect traps are used along with the special ingredient - cow poo. It encourages biodiversity and leads to the extra soft feel of our organic cotton clothing.

Fewer inputs also means less water, but even organic cotton is still a thirsty crop. So where you grow it matters. The fields our supplier uses to grow the organic cotton for our products are in the North of India, where the monsoons fill reservoirs that supply almost all the water needed.

Printing

Our Suppliers use environmentally friendly water based inks that conform to the GOTS/Soil Association organic criteria, which is not only more environmentally friendly but means all the inks used contain no animal derived products and are not tested on animals. Because of this all our products are Certified OEKO-TEX - Standard 100.

Furthermore, the water used in the dying process is recovered, cleaned and recirculated through filtering and using reverse osmosis and distillation.

Salt is added back in so that the dye adheres and all the cruddy mulchy stuff left over is dried out and used for road markings. About 95% of the water is recirculated and recovered.

At the end, the water coming out of the filters and going back round to be reused again is crystal clear, literally clean enough to drink. Once it has been cleaned, it is then used at the input for the next batch. It is a closed loop system.

Manufacturing and Processes

At Meadowmoon, we hate waste. After learning that in the traditional manufacturing process 40% of clothing remains unworn and that a truck full of textiles is sent to landfills or incinerators every second, we were determined to minimise our environmental footprint.

In our search for suppliers and distribution channels this commitment led us to choose a Made To Order approach as the most suitable. With this approach, garments are only printed once an order has been placed. This eliminates the need for estimating how many items and designs will be in demand, thereby significantly reducing waste and excess production.

Renewable Energy

As well as our products being Made To Order to minimise waste, the suppliers we use also run their factories completely on renewable energies.

But that's not enough, they even use machine-to-machine communications technology which allows them to dynamically turn equipment on and off only when it is needed, reducing waste.

This is something that really aligns with our values at Meadowmoon. So much so, that where we were able to we made the majority of our website dark to reduce energy consumption.

Plastic Free Packaging

We love nature and when we read that by 2050 there will be more plastic in the ocean than fish, we knew we had to be part of the change.

This means that instead of plastic packaging, all orders are sent in rip and splash-proof mailer bag made out of paper. Large orders arrive in cardboard boxes, with paper-based tape.

Traceability

Traceability is important at Meadowmoon. That's why we're proud to use suppliers that have a truly great supply chain with industry-leading certifications, including;

GOTS - Global Organic Textile Standard

OEKO-TEX - Standard 100 (Annex 4 & 6)

OEKO-TEX DETOX TO ZERO Compliant

SA8000 - Social Accountability International

Fairtrade FLOCERT

WRAP Platinum - Worldwide Responsible Accredited Production

Nordic SWAN Eco-labelling

GRS - Global Recycling Standard

IGBC Green factory (Platinum)
