Privacy Policy

Who this policy covers

This policy applies to Maiquela's Cosmetology Academy, located at 8511 Long Beach Blvd, South Gate, CA 90280, and to this website at https://www.maiquelascosmetology.net. It explains what information we collect through the site, why we collect it, and what we do with it.

Information you give us

If you submit the information request form on this site, you may provide your name, phone number, email address, the program you are interested in, and any message you choose to write. Providing this information is entirely voluntary.

We use it for one purpose: to respond to your enquiry about our programs. We do not sell it, rent it, or trade it to anyone.

Enquiry form submissions reach us through a third-party form-processing service. That provider receives what you submit solely in order to pass it to us, and processes it on our behalf under its own privacy terms. If no such service is connected, the form does not transmit your details anywhere — it will say so and direct you to call instead.

Contacting you

The form includes a consent checkbox. By ticking it you agree that we may contact you about your enquiry by phone, text message or email. Message and data rates may apply depending on your carrier.

Consent to be contacted is not a condition of enrolment. You may ask us to stop contacting you at any time by telling us on a call to (323) 587-1750, and we will honour that request.

Information collected automatically

Like most websites, standard technical information may be recorded by our hosting provider when you visit — such as your browser type, device type, approximate region and the pages you view. This is used to keep the site working and to understand which pages are useful.

Some pages embed a Google Maps frame so you can see where the academy is. Google may collect information when that map loads, under Google’s own privacy policy rather than ours.

Advertising and third-party cookies

This website displays advertising supplied by Google AdSense. Google and its partners place and read cookies on your browser, and use web beacons and your IP address, to select the advertisements you are shown. That selection can be based on your prior visits to this website and to other websites across the internet.

Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet. You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google’s Ads Settings at google.com/settings/ads, or opt out of a third-party vendor’s use of cookies for personalised advertising at aboutads.info.

Google acts as a third-party vendor on this site and uses cookies, including the DoubleClick cookie, to serve advertising. Google’s handling of the data it collects through those cookies is governed by Google’s own privacy policy at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites, not by this one — we do not receive, hold or have access to it.

Do Not Track signals

This website runs no analytics of its own and sets no first-party tracking cookies. It does, however, serve Google AdSense, and the advertising cookies described above do follow visitors across other websites — so the site is not tracking-free, and we will not describe it that way. Google does not act on Do Not Track browser signals, and neither the site nor this policy can make it do so. The opt-out links in the advertising section above are the controls that actually work; a browser-level cookie block is the other.

One exception is worth naming. The map embedded on the homepage and contact page is served by Google, and Google may set its own cookies when that map loads. That happens under Google’s privacy policy rather than ours, and we do not control it.

Links to other websites

This site links to external services including our Google Business listing, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Yelp and an online booking provider. Once you follow a link away from this site, the privacy policy of that service applies rather than this one.

How long we keep information

Enquiry information is kept only as long as needed to respond to your enquiry and to maintain a record of it. If you enrol, information relating to your enrolment and training is retained in accordance with applicable California record-keeping requirements for schools.

Children

This website is intended for prospective and current students and members of the public booking student salon services. It is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect information from children through this site.

Your choices

You may ask us what enquiry information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it, by calling (323) 587-1750. California residents may have additional rights regarding personal information under state law.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The version published on this page is the current one. Material changes will be reflected here rather than communicated individually.
