Cookie Policy

1. What cookies and similar technologies are

Cookies are small text records that a website or service places in a browser. They can support basic operation, remember preferences, protect forms, maintain sessions, measure performance or enable third-party features. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, pixels, tags and software-development-kit events.

Some technologies remain only during the browsing session; others remain until they expire or are deleted. First-party technologies are set by the website being visited. Third-party technologies are set or read by another service used by the website.

2. Technologies used by this website

The website may use technologies that are strictly necessary to deliver pages, prevent misuse, maintain security and support the commerce or content-management platform. These technologies may be placed by the hosting platform and cannot always be disabled through a site-level preference tool because the website may not function correctly without them.

The custom theme switch stores a preference identified as ms-theme in browser local storage. Its purpose is to remember whether you selected the light or dark visual mode. It does not contain your name, email address or message content, is not used to follow you across unrelated websites and can be removed through browser storage controls.

The current inquiry interface validates fields and displays a confirmation locally in the browser. It does not transmit the entered information by itself. If the form is later connected to a receiving service, the privacy and cookie disclosures should be reviewed before publication.

3. Categories

Strictly necessary

These technologies support essential page delivery, security, load balancing, session integrity, accessibility, fraud prevention and platform operation. Disabling them may prevent parts of the site from functioning.

Preferences

Preference storage remembers choices such as the selected visual theme. It improves continuity but is not used for behavioral advertising.

Analytics

Analytics technologies can help a site owner understand page visits, device categories, navigation paths and technical performance. No optional analytics technology should be enabled without an appropriate notice and, where law requires, consent. The custom code supplied for this website does not add an analytics platform.

Advertising

Advertising technologies may build profiles or track activity across services. The custom code supplied for this website does not add behavioral advertising cookies or pixels. If advertising technology is later added, this policy and the consent controls must be updated before that technology is activated where required.

4. Shopify and platform technologies

The website may operate on Shopify. Shopify and related infrastructure may use cookies or similar technologies for storefront operation, security, checkout, localization, analytics or other platform functions depending on the theme configuration, installed applications and enabled features. The site owner should review the active Shopify configuration and installed applications because the exact technology set can change independently of this custom section code.

If the store does not sell products or use checkout, some commerce-related technologies may not be active. The presence and duration of a platform cookie should be verified against the live storefront and current platform documentation before publishing a detailed cookie table.

5. Third-party tools

Embedded media, appointment tools, analytics services, payment services, customer-support tools or other applications may set their own cookies when enabled. Their processing is controlled by their respective providers. No third-party tool should be described as active merely because it is available in the platform. This policy must be updated if a new tool materially changes browser storage or tracking.

6. Your choices

You can delete or block cookies and local storage through browser settings. Most browsers also allow you to review site data, restrict third-party cookies or remove data for a specific domain. Blocking necessary technologies may affect security, saved preferences or page operation. Deleting the ms-theme local storage record resets the theme preference and the site may return to the system or default appearance.

Where the website provides a consent control, use it to accept, reject or revise optional categories. A consent control does not override browser restrictions. Browser-level privacy signals may also apply where recognized by applicable law and supported by the configured platform.

7. Retention

Storage duration depends on purpose. Session technologies expire when the session ends, while persistent technologies remain for a set period or until deletion. The custom theme preference remains until the visitor clears local storage or another site action changes it. Optional tool retention should be configured proportionately and documented in the live consent interface.

8. Do Not Track and global privacy signals

Browser “Do Not Track” settings are not interpreted consistently across the internet. Where an applicable law requires recognition of a supported opt-out signal, the site owner should configure the live platform accordingly. Because this custom website code does not add behavioral advertising, it does not create a separate cross-site advertising profile.

9. Policy changes

This Cookie Policy may be updated when the platform, installed applications, consent requirements or website functions change. The “Last updated” date identifies the current version. The live site should be audited after adding applications, analytics, embedded content or advertising technology.
