What personal data we collect and why we collect it
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy explains how that service handles information. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Contact forms
Draft — for review
If you contact us, we may receive your name, email address, phone number, and the details you choose to share. We use this information to respond to your questions and help with salon services or appointments. Please avoid including sensitive information in your message. To send us an inquiry, please use the phone number or email address listed below.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
If you have an account and you log in to this site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
Analytics
Draft — for review
If website analytics are enabled, they may help us understand which pages visitors use and improve the website. Information may include device and browser details, pages viewed, and approximate location. Confirm any analytics provider, cookies, and available privacy choices before enabling analytics or publishing this section.
Who we share your data with
Draft — for review
We may share information with service providers when needed to respond to inquiries, manage appointments, or operate the website. We may also disclose information when required by law. Confirm which hosting, email, booking, and other providers receive personal information, and whether any information is used for advertising or shared for other purposes.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where we send your data
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

Additional information
The following draft sections describe proposed practices and items to confirm with the salon and its providers.
How we protect your data
Draft — for review
Our proposed approach is to limit access to personal information to people who need it for salon operations, use appropriate account protections, and keep website systems maintained. No method of storage or transmission is completely secure. Confirm the safeguards actually in place with the salon and its service providers.
What data breach procedures we have in place
Draft — for review
If we become aware of a suspected incident involving personal information, our proposed process is to investigate, take steps to contain the incident, and work with relevant providers to address it. We would notify affected individuals and authorities where required by applicable law. Confirm the responsible contact and response process before publishing.
What third parties we receive data from
Draft — for review
If you book through an external appointment service or contact us through another platform, we may receive the information needed to manage your appointment or respond to you. Those services have their own privacy policies. Confirm the providers in use and the information they share with the salon.
What automated decision making and/or profiling we do with user data
Draft — for review
This website is intended to provide salon information and help visitors contact us or book appointments. Confirm whether any connected booking, marketing, or analytics service uses personal information for automated decisions or profiling, and describe any such use and available choices here before publishing.
Industry regulatory disclosure requirements
Draft — for review
We may retain or disclose information when required by applicable law, a valid legal request, or recordkeeping obligations. Confirm any requirements that apply to the salon and its service providers before publishing this section.
