Cookie Policy
This policy describes the cookies this website sets. Solenne Atelier uses one session cookie so the contact form can be submitted safely. The site does not use advertising cookies or analytics cookies, and it does not show a cookie banner.
Introduction
The contact form needs a short-lived cookie so the submission can be tied to the same visit. The other pages are files. Opening them does not start that cookie.
What cookies are
A cookie is a small piece of text a site asks your browser to store and send back. Similar storage, such as local storage, can do a related job. This site’s scripts do not write tracking values into local storage or session storage.
Cookies used by our website
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration | Category |
|---|---|---|---|---|
ms_session |
Solenne Atelier, on this website | Keeps the form’s security token, the time the form was opened, and a temporary error or success message. The inquiry itself is not stored inside the cookie. | Session. The browser is asked to drop it when the session ends. The server treats idle session data as expired after two hours. | Strictly necessary |
Strictly necessary cookies
ms_session is HTTP-only, so page scripts cannot read it. SameSite is Lax, so the cookie is not sent on most cross-site requests. The Secure flag is added when the server recognizes the connection as HTTPS. The form will not accept a submission without a matching token from the same session. Because the cookie is required to send the form, the site does not ask you to opt in before setting it.
Analytics and advertising technologies
There is no analytics cookie and no advertising cookie. There is no social-media pixel, no embedded video player, and no tag manager. If analytics or advertising tags are added later, this policy will be updated before those tags run, and a consent choice will be added if those tags require one.
Third-party services
Fonts and images are files on this website. The cookie is set by this website, not by an advertising network. If you arrived from a search engine or another site, that other site may have its own cookies. This policy does not control those.
Cookie duration
The cookie’s lifetime in the browser is a session, which means the browser is asked to delete it when you close the session. On the server, idle session data is set to expire after two hours. The file on disk may remain until the server’s own session cleanup runs. That cleanup is not guaranteed to happen at the exact minute the two hours end.
A successful inquiry is stored in a private database, which is described in the privacy policy. That database is not a cookie.
How to manage cookies
You can delete ms_session in your browser’s site settings, or block cookies for this site. Browser controls differ. In current versions of Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari, cookie settings live in the privacy or site-settings area. A private window typically drops the session cookie when you close that window.
Consequences of disabling cookies
If you block the cookie, the contact form cannot keep its security token and you will not be able to send an inquiry until the cookie is allowed again. Reading the other pages does not require the cookie. Blocking the cookie does not delete an inquiry that was already saved. Use the contact form’s “Privacy request” option for a copy or a deletion of a stored inquiry.
Updates to the policy
If the cookie or the form changes in a way that matters, this page and the date at the top will change. Send a privacy request through the contact form and choose “Privacy request.” Include the reference code and the same email address used on the inquiry.
