Cookies, analytics and ads
Our website uses Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Google Ads, Microsoft Advertising, Microsoft Clarity and the Meta Pixel.

They use it only to provide their service to us. We share information when the law requires it. We never sell your personal information.
How long we keep it
We keep your client record for as long as you book with us, so we remember how you like your cut, and we keep payment and order records as long as tax law requires. Ask us anytime to delete your record.
