Savile Row Tailors: Cookies Policy

Welcome to Savile Row Tailors. This Cookies Policy explains how our website uses cookies and similar technologies to collect and process information, ensuring an optimal and personalized browsing experience for our valued clients. We are committed to transparency and aim to provide you with a clear understanding of our practices.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site. These files are stored by your web browser and allow the website to remember information about your visit, such as your preferences, login details, and language settings. This information can then be used to tailor your experience on subsequent visits.

Why Do We Use Cookies?

At Savile Row Tailors, we use cookies for several important reasons:

Strictly Necessary Cookies: These cookies are essential for the basic functioning of our website. They enable you to navigate through the site, access secure areas, and use features like our booking system. Without these cookies, many services you might request would not be possible.
Analytical Cookies: We use analytical cookies to understand how visitors interact with our website. These cookies help us collect data on metrics such as the number of visitors, the pages they visit, how long they stay on our site, and the source of traffic. This information allows us to improve the structure, content, and performance of our website, ensuring it remains relevant and user-friendly. The data collected is anonymized and aggregated, meaning it does not identify individual users.
Functionality Cookies: These cookies allow our website to remember choices you make (such as your username, language, or region) and provide enhanced, more personal features. For example, they might be used to remember your preferences for certain settings or to provide services you have requested, such as a tailoring consultation booking.
Marketing and Personalization Cookies: While we primarily focus on functionality and analytics, we may, from time to time, use cookies to make our website content more relevant to your interests. This could involve remembering information about your browsing habits on our site to present you with tailored offers or information, though this is implemented with a strong emphasis on user privacy.

Types of Cookies Used and Their Duration

We employ both session cookies and persistent cookies:

Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that are erased when you close your browser. They are used to maintain your session as you navigate the site, for example, keeping you logged in or remembering items in a shopping cart.
Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a set period specified in the cookie itself or until you manually delete them. They are used to remember your preferences for future visits and to track your activity over time for analytical purposes. The duration of these cookies can range from a few hours to several years, depending on their purpose.

Our Commitment to Accessibility and Responsiveness

At Savile Row Tailors, we strive to make our online presence accessible to everyone, adhering to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 standards. We believe that all clients should have a seamless and positive experience when interacting with our website, regardless of their abilities or the device they are using.

Semantic HTML5: We use proper HTML5 elements for structure, ensuring screen readers can interpret content logically.
ARIA Attributes: Where necessary, we implement Accessible Rich Internet Applications (ARIA) attributes to enhance the accessibility of dynamic content and custom UI controls. This includes roles, states, and properties to convey information about UI elements that are not natively supported by HTML.
Keyboard Navigation: All interactive elements are navigable and operable using a keyboard alone, with clear focus indicators.
Color Contrast: We ensure sufficient color contrast between text and backgrounds, meeting WCAG AA standards.
Responsive Design: Our website is built with a mobile-first approach, utilizing fluid grids and flexible images that adapt to various screen sizes and resolutions, from desktops to smartphones.
Alternative Text for Images: Every image includes descriptive alt text to convey its content and function to users who cannot see the images.

We are continuously working to improve our website's accessibility. If you encounter any accessibility barriers or have suggestions for improvement, please contact us.

Example of ARIA Implementation

To illustrate, consider a custom dropdown menu:

Here, role="button" identifies the element as a button, aria-haspopup="true" indicates it controls a popup, aria-expanded="false" signifies the popup is currently closed, and role="menu" and role="menuitem" define the menu structure, all of which aid assistive technologies.
