Cookie Policy
This page explains how VelvetDolls uses cookies and similar technologies for site operation, form security, optional analytics, and optional A/B testing.
Last updated: 28 September 2026.
How We Use Cookies
Necessary cookies keep the website, application form, admin area, and security controls working. Optional analytics and testing cookies are only used if you choose to allow them.
We do not use advertising cookies on this site. If advertising pixels, remarketing tags, heatmaps, or other tracking tools are added later, this policy and the consent controls should be updated before they go live.
Your Current Choices
You can accept optional cookies, reject optional cookies, or choose each optional category separately. You can reopen your settings at any time using the Cookie Settings button on this page.
Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that took place before you changed your choice. Necessary cookies cannot be disabled through our controls because the requested website and security features cannot operate reliably without them.
Cookie Details
What This Site Stores
These are the cookies and similar technologies currently used by VelvetDolls.
- vd_cookie_consent Necessary. Stores your cookie choices for up to 12 months so we can respect your latest preference.
- vd_application_submission Necessary. Helps prevent accidental duplicate application submissions for up to 1 hour. It is HTTP-only and not available to browser JavaScript.
- vd_admin Necessary for authorised staff only. Keeps a signed-in admin session active inside the private editor and is not used for public visitors.

- Analytics events Optional analytics. If analytics is accepted, the site sends privacy-light events such as page views, application form opens, referrers, campaign tags, and experiment assignments to the same-origin tracking endpoint.
- Cloudflare Turnstile Necessary form security. The application form loads Turnstile to help prevent automated spam and verify that a real person is submitting the form. Cloudflare may process technical information and use necessary browser storage for this purpose.
