Cookie policy —
what we store and why
The cookies and browser storage this site uses, what each one does, and how to turn them off. Short version: nothing creepy.
Last updated: 12 January 2026
We use cookies for function, not surveillance
styleandwearlab.net stores a small number of items in your browser to remember your cookie choice, keep the site fast and understand which pages people actually read.
The banner you saw on the homepage lets you accept everything or essential-only. 'Essential only' turns off analytics — the site works the same either way.

Essential storage
One item: your cookie preference itself ('swl-cookie-ok'). It's stored in localStorage so the banner doesn't nag you on every visit. It contains no personal data.
These are always on because the site doesn't function sensibly without them — that's the whole point of 'essential'.
Analytics cookies
If you accept, we may load privacy-friendly analytics to count visits and see which pages get read. No advertising trackers, no cross-site profiling, no sale of browsing data — we make money styling people, not tracking them.
Declining analytics breaks nothing. Every page and every form works identically either way.
Third-party embeds
The contacts page embeds Google Maps, which may set its own cookies under Google's policy when loaded. Font and icon files load from public CDNs (jsdelivr, cdnjs, Google Fonts) which log standard request data.
If you prefer, block third-party cookies in your browser — the map is decorative; the address is written next to it.
Managing your choice
Clear your browser's site data for styleandwearlab.net and the banner returns — choose again. Every browser also lets you block or delete cookies site-wide.
Questions about any of this: styleandwearlab@gmail.com, subject 'cookies'.

A note from Amelia
"We wrote these pages ourselves, in normal language, because nobody should need a law degree to book a stylist. If a sentence reads like jargon, tell us and we'll fix it." — Amelia Hartley, director
