Cookie Policy
Last updated: 19 February 2026
What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help remember preferences and understand how you use the site.
Essential Cookies
These are necessary for the website to function and do not require consent under PECR.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| theme | Stores your light/dark mode preference | Persistent |
| cookie-consent | Stores your cookie consent preferences | Persistent |
Analytics Cookies
Set only with your explicit consent. They collect anonymised, aggregated data to help us improve the website.
| Service | Purpose | Data Collected |
|---|---|---|
| Vercel Analytics | Page view tracking | Anonymised page views, referrer, device type |
| Vercel Speed Insights | Performance monitoring | Page load times, Core Web Vitals |
Both services use request hashing instead of third-party cookies and cannot identify individual users.
Consent
A cookie banner appears on your first visit where you can accept all, reject all, or manage preferences. Analytics scripts are not loaded until you consent. Your choice is saved in local storage so you are not asked again.
Changing Your Preferences
You can update your cookie preferences at any time via the “Cookie Settings” link in the footer, or by clearing your browser's local storage.
Third-Party Services
Analytics are provided by Vercel Inc. See the Vercel Privacy Policy for details. The Cal.com booking widget may set its own cookies — refer to Cal.com's privacy policy.
Changes
We may update this policy to reflect changes in technology or legislation. Changes will be posted here with an updated date. Questions? Contact us at appointments@sereneearcare.co.uk.
