What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to recognise your device and remember certain information about your visit — for example, your preferred language or whether you have already accepted this notice.

This page explains exactly which cookies the Salar Barber website uses, why we use them, and how long they remain active. We do not use cookies for advertising purposes or to track you across other websites.

Cookies We Set

The following cookies are placed directly by this website. They are limited to what is strictly necessary for the site to operate securely and to remember your basic preferences.

Cookie	Category	Duration	Purpose
Security Token	Strictly Necessary	1 year	Protects every form submission on this website against cross-site request forgery — a standard security measure required to safely process your booking and other requests.
Session Cookie	Strictly Necessary	Until you close your browser	Maintains a temporary, anonymous connection between your browser and our web server for the duration of your visit. It contains no personal data and is deleted as soon as you close your browser.
Language Preference	Functional	1 year	Remembers the display language you selected (English, Dutch, French, or German) so that your preference is applied automatically on future visits.
Cookie Consent	Functional	365 days (browser storage)	Records that you have acknowledged this cookie notice so that the information banner is not displayed on every page you visit. This preference is stored locally in your browser and is never transmitted to our servers.
Session Notice	Functional	Until you close this tab	Records that you have already seen an announcement during your current browsing session, preventing it from reappearing on every page. This data is held only in your browser's session memory and is automatically erased when you close the tab.

Third-Party Services

Certain content on this website is delivered by external service providers. When your browser loads these resources, those providers may set their own cookies or receive technical data (such as your IP address) in accordance with their respective privacy policies. We have no control over those cookies and do not receive any of the data collected by them.

Provider	Category	Used for	Their Policy
Google Maps	Third-Party	Interactive map displayed on our website to help you locate our salon.	Google Privacy Policy
Google Fonts	Third-Party	Provides the typefaces used throughout the site. When fonts are loaded, Google's servers receive your IP address as part of a standard network request.	Google Privacy Policy
Font Awesome	Third-Party	Supplies the icons used across the site. No cookies are set by this provider; only a standard file request is made to load the icon library.	Font Awesome Privacy Policy

Note on Google Maps: The interactive map is loaded only when you scroll it into view, in order to minimise unnecessary data sharing with Google. If you prefer not to load the map at all, you may use the Get Directions link in the footer to open your preferred mapping application directly.

Your Rights Under the GDPR

As a resident of the European Economic Area, you are entitled to the following rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR — Regulation (EU) 2016/679):

Right of Access & Erasure — You may delete all cookies and locally stored data placed by this website at any time through your browser settings. In most browsers this can be found under Settings → Privacy & Security → Clear Browsing Data.

Strictly Necessary Cookies — The Security Token and Session Cookie are indispensable for the secure operation of this website. Disabling them would prevent core features — including online appointment booking — from functioning correctly. No consent is required for these cookies under Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive, as they are strictly necessary to provide a service you have explicitly requested.

Right to Withdraw Consent — Functional cookies (language preference and consent notice) may be removed at any time by clearing your browser's cookies and site data. Doing so will reset your preferences on your next visit.

Opt-Out of Third-Party Services — You can limit data collection by Google by adjusting your Google account privacy settings or by using a browser extension that blocks third-party requests. This will prevent the embedded map and font resources from loading.

Right to Lodge a Complaint — If you believe your data protection rights have not been respected, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Belgian Data Protection Authority (dataprotectionauthority.be).
