a numeric user ID and stores certain information about your activity
on the site. We use cookies to let us know that you are a prior customer
and to provide certain features to you, for example to store information
on your product selections as you shop on our site, but we do not store
any personal information (except your name) or financial information
about you using cookies.
Most web
browsers automatically accept cookies, but most allow you to instruct
your browser to prevent the use of cookies. However, if you disable
this feature, certain aspects of Thaiecard, such as the shopping
basket, will not function properly.
