Cookie Policy

You can change your answer here at any time. It applies to this browser on this device; answer again elsewhere if you use more than one.

This is everything SalonKoi itself keeps in your browser. Only the first is a cookie; the rest sit in your browser’s local storage.

• Your language choice — a cookie named locale, set only when you use the বাংলা / English switch, and kept for a year. It is read in exactly one place: when you open the bare home page address, so the site opens in the language you last picked. Every other page takes its language from its address.
• Your session token — proves to our API that requests are yours, so you stay signed in as you move between pages. Strictly necessary: without it you would have to sign in on every page, and it is removed the moment you sign out.
• A copy of your profile — your name, email address, phone number and the date you joined, saved when you sign in so the menu and your profile page can show them without asking our servers again. It is removed when you sign out.
• Your cookie answer — remembers what you chose here, so the banner does not ask again on every visit.

None of these is used to track you, and none needs your consent: each is there because you signed in or made a choice. The language cookie travels with your requests to this site, as any cookie does, and the session token is sent to our own API to authorise your requests; nothing else leaves your device.

SalonKoi is free to use and is funded by advertising. When advertising is switched on, ads are served by Google AdSense, which may set cookies on your device to measure ad performance, limit how often you see the same ad, and — where you allow it — personalise which ads you see. Those cookies are set by Google, not by us, and Google’s use of them is governed by its own policies.

Advertising is not yet enabled on this site.The ad areas you may see are reserved placeholders that load nothing. When ads do go live, they will only load for visitors who chose “Accept” above; choosing “Reject” keeps them off, and every other part of SalonKoi works exactly the same either way.

You can also manage ad personalisation directly with Google at adssettings.google.com.

Ads are limited to browsing pages: the home page, salon listings, salon profiles, your booking history and the booking confirmation. They are always labelled “Advertisement”.

We never place ads on the sign-in and registration pages, the booking form, the password reset pages, the salon and admin dashboards, or these policy pages.

Every major browser can block or delete cookies and site data from its settings. Clearing site data for SalonKoi also clears everything listed above — you will be signed out, the site will forget your language choice, and the banner will ask again. Blocking cookies does not stop you booking.

What we collect about you beyond your browser is set out in our Privacy Policy. If anything here is unclear, write to privacy@salonkoi.com.
