9. Marketing
Our marketing team use all sorts of fantastic tools to help us spread the sparkle and glow to people like you. We’ve always had an ethos of never collecting personal data, or sharing personal data in anyway shape or form.

There are a few new technologies that simply place an anonymous, unidentifiable, secure cookie on your device (can easily be cleared with a quick browser cookie clean, under history settings) – This technology (remarketing) simply allows us to show you relevant adverts on sites within our network.

Money from these adverts goes to help those sites support their running costs, so it works out well for all. Relevant ads to you, exposure for us and a bit of revenue to other sites that you care about. If you ever have any questions, please feel free to email us and we’ll be happy to answer all of your questions transparently.

You can easily opt out of those ads, by clicking the little box in the top right hand corner of the advert. We also promise to keep it subtle and have no intention of going all salesy on you now or in the future.
