What data we collect

Velouté is a static, read-only website. We do not have user accounts, forms, or databases of personal data. The limited data we collect is:

  • Email enquiries — if you contact us at [email protected], we receive your email address and message. We use this only to respond to your enquiry.

Cookies

We use the following cookies:

  • Google Analytics (_ga, _ga_*) — analytics cookies that help us understand how visitors use the site. These are set by Google and governed by Google's Privacy Policy.
  • Google AdSense — if advertising is displayed, Google may set cookies to serve relevant ads. See Google's advertising policy.

You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking using the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. You can manage cookie preferences in your browser settings.

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised. Continued use of Velouté after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
