Privacy Policy
What this showcase remembers about a visitor, why it remembers it, and how to make it forget. Written in the same plain voice as the batch ledgers behind the counter.
The short version
Sorrel Hollow Candy Works keeps a static showcase of its small-batch confectionery: an illustrated catalog of batches, gift formats and pairing ideas. The only thing we deliberately remember is a display preference, and only if you press the button that asks us to save it.
What is stored on your device
When you choose to save preferences, a single local storage entry is written in your browser under the name hollowPlatePrefs_v4. That entry contains one word confirming your choice. Nothing else is written, and nothing is transmitted off your device by this site.
- The entry records only that you asked us to remember your display and flavor-matching settings.
- Flavor Dial answers, gift slip selections and archive filters stay in the browser tab while you browse and are not sent anywhere.
- If you decline, no entry is written at all, and the notice is removed from the page.
What we do not collect
We do not run an analytics script on this showcase. We do not set tracking cookies, advertising identifiers or fingerprinting scripts. We do not collect names, postal addresses, telephone numbers or payment details through this website, and there is no field on any page that would submit such details to us.
Clearing what is stored
You can remove the saved preference at any time through your browser's site data settings, where it appears under the local storage entry named above. Clearing site data for this page removes it completely. Because the entry is a single word, no other setting or list is affected.
Correspondence by email
If you write to sorrelhollowcandies@gmail.com about a batch reservation, a tasting box or a wedding order, we keep that message in the shop inbox so we can answer it and match your request to a cook date. We do not add those addresses to a marketing list, and we do not sell or rent correspondence to anyone.
Children and family orders
Our archive is written for adult gift buyers and longtime candy counter customers. We do not knowingly collect information from children through this site, and there is no mechanism here to do so. Family orders placed by email are handled by an adult in the shop.
Illustrations and photographs
Every illustration on this showcase is a drawing made for the Hollow. We do not embed third-party image services, embedded video players or externally hosted fonts, which is why the pages load quietly and why no outside service sees your visit.
Changes to this record
If we ever change how display preferences are stored, we will update this page and change the date at the top. The current practice, and the current local storage name, will always be described here in plain language.
Questions about this record? Ask at the counter on Sorrel Hollow Lane in Corvallis, or write to sorrelhollowcandies@gmail.com and we will answer in the same language used here.
