Privacy Policy
What we collect, how it's used, and how to reach us.
Updated August 2026
Information we collect
Board of Cosmetology does not require an account and does not ask visitors to log in. The only personal information we knowingly collect is what you submit yourself through our Contact Us form — your name, email address, and message. We store this information in our database solely to review and respond to your message. We do not sell this information or share it with third parties for marketing purposes.
Cookies and advertising
This site uses minimal cookies required for it to function, such as a security token used to protect our contact form from cross-site request forgery.
We also use Google AdSense to display advertising and Google Analytics to understand how visitors use this site. These services may set cookies or use similar technologies (such as web beacons) to collect information about your visits to this and other websites, and may use that information to serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visits to this site and other sites on the Internet.
You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, or opt out of third-party vendor use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info.
Technical information
Like most websites, our hosting infrastructure may automatically log standard technical information such as IP address, browser type, and pages visited. This information is used only for security, troubleshooting, and understanding overall site performance — it is not used to identify individual visitors.
Third-party links
Our pages link to official state board resources for tasks we don't handle directly. We aren't responsible for the privacy practices or content of external sites, and we encourage you to review the privacy policy of any site you visit.
Children's privacy
This site is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to this policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices. Any updates will be posted on this page.
