How we use cookies

This cookies policy explains how the Alexis Aesthetics website uses cookies and similar technologies. It should be read together with the privacy policy which describes how personal data is handled more broadly.

By continuing to use this site you agree that cookies may be placed on your device as described here, subject to any settings you choose in your browser.

1. What are cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, tablet or phone when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work or work more efficiently and to provide information to the site owners.

Similar technologies such as pixels or local storage may also be used to support the same purposes. In this policy the term cookies is used to cover all of these tools in a simple way.

2. Why we use cookies

Alexis Aesthetics uses cookies on this site for several reasons:

  • To help the site function correctly and remember basic choices such as your cookie settings.
  • To understand how visitors use the site so that content and layout can be improved over time.
  • To keep the site secure and protect against misuse.

Cookies are not used to show third party advertising or to track you across unrelated websites.

3. Types of cookies we use

The cookies on this site fall into a few broad categories:

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are needed for the site to function and cannot be switched off using on site controls. They are usually set in response to actions made by you such as setting privacy preferences, filling in forms or moving between secure areas of the site.

Performance and analytics cookies

These cookies help the clinic understand how visitors use the site for example which pages are visited most often and whether any error messages are shown. They are often set by analytics tools. The information is usually collected in an aggregated form and does not directly identify you.

Functionality cookies

These cookies allow the site to remember choices you make such as language preferences and improve your experience. They may be set by the site or by third party providers whose services have been added to the pages such as embedded forms or booking tools.

The specific cookies and their lifespans may change from time to time as the site is updated but the purposes will remain similar to those described here.

4. Third party tools and cookies

The site may use third party services which set their own cookies. Examples include:

  • Analytics services that collect anonymous information about site usage.
  • Embedded forms such as booking or enquiry forms that help manage appointments.
  • Video or map services that allow content to be displayed within the site.

These third parties are responsible for their own cookies and privacy practices. You can find more detail in their individual privacy and cookies policies.

5. How to manage or disable cookies

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can choose to block cookies entirely, block cookies from specific sites or delete cookies that have already been set.

The exact steps depend on which browser you use. Guidance is usually available in the help section of your browser. If you block all cookies some parts of this website may not function correctly and some services may not be available.

On mobile devices similar options are often found within the browser app settings or in general privacy settings for the device.

6. Cookies and personal data

Some cookies work together with other information to help understand how the site is used and to keep it secure. Where cookies collect or help to generate information that can be linked to you as an identifiable person this information is treated as personal data and handled in line with the privacy policy.

7. Changes to this cookies policy
