This Cookie Policy explains how Papillon Soul Yoga (“we”, “us” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website.

Our website is hosted on Squarespace and is currently intended to provide information about Papillon Soul Yoga, our yoga classes and services, and ways to contact us or book a class.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow a website to recognise your device and can be used for a range of purposes, including making a website function properly, remembering preferences and understanding how visitors use the website.

We may also use similar technologies, such as pixels or tags, which can collect information about how you interact with our website.

2. How we use cookies

We may use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are required for our website to function properly and cannot generally be switched off through our website's cookie settings.

They may include cookies used to:

• provide basic website functionality;

• maintain security;

• remember certain website settings or preferences; and

• enable Squarespace features that you request when using the website.

Where a cookie is strictly necessary to provide a service you have requested, consent may not be required under applicable law.

Analytics and performance cookies

We use Squarespace's website analytics to help us understand how visitors use our website. This may include information such as:

• the number of visitors to our website;

• which pages are visited;

• how visitors arrive at our website;

• how visitors interact with the website; and

• general information about website performance.

These cookies help us understand which parts of our website are useful and where we could improve the experience.

Analytics cookies are not strictly necessary for you to use the website. Where required by law, we will ask for your consent before setting these cookies.

Google Analytics

We may in future use Google Analytics to help us understand how visitors use our website.

If we introduce Google Analytics, it will only be used in accordance with our cookie consent arrangements and applicable data protection and privacy laws. Where consent is required, Google Analytics cookies will not be placed on your device unless you have given consent.

We will update this Cookie Policy if Google Analytics is introduced and provide further information about the cookies and technologies used.

Social media content

Our website may display content from Instagram, such as an Instagram feed.

Instagram is operated by Meta Platforms, Inc. and may use cookies or similar technologies when content from its platform is displayed or interacted with on our website.

These technologies may allow Instagram or Meta to collect information about your visit or interaction with the embedded content.

Where applicable, we will seek your consent before allowing non-essential third-party cookies or similar technologies associated with embedded social media content to operate.

You can also manage cookies through your browser settings and, where available, through our website's cookie settings.

3. Contact forms and mailing list

Our website includes contact forms which allow you to contact Papillon Soul Yoga.

The forms may also include an optional checkbox allowing you to choose to receive our mailing list or other marketing communications.

Choosing to subscribe to our mailing list is separate from submitting a general enquiry. You do not need to agree to receive marketing emails in order to contact us.

If we use Mailchimp or another email marketing provider to manage our mailing list, your information will be processed by that provider on our behalf. We will update our Privacy Policy and this Cookie Policy where appropriate if we introduce such a service.

You can unsubscribe from our marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in our emails.

4. External links

Our website contains links to third-party websites and services, including our external Bookwhen booking page.

When you follow an external link, you leave the Papillon Soul Yoga website and become subject to the privacy and cookie policies of that third party.

We do not control the cookies or other technologies used by third-party websites, and you should review their privacy and cookie policies before providing personal information or using their services.

5. Your choices

Where consent is required, we will ask for your consent before placing non-essential cookies on your device.

You can choose whether to accept or reject non-essential cookies through our cookie consent mechanism.

You can also control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Please be aware that blocking some cookies may affect how certain websites or features function.

You can change your cookie preferences at any time by returning to our cookie settings, where this option is provided.

6. Third-party services

Some services used on our website may be provided by third parties. These may include:

• Squarespace, which hosts and provides functionality for our website;

• Instagram/Meta, where Instagram content is displayed;

• Google Analytics, if we introduce it;

• Mailchimp or another email marketing provider, if we introduce one; and

• Bookwhen, which provides our external class booking service.

These third parties may use cookies or similar technologies in accordance with their own policies.

We do not control the privacy practices of third-party services and recommend that you review their respective privacy and cookie policies.

7. Changes to this Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the cookies and technologies we use, changes to our website, or changes in applicable law or regulatory guidance.

Any changes will be published on this page and the “Last updated” date will be amended accordingly.
