Summary
Feative Studios keeps cookies to a minimum. The public Site sets one functional cookie of its own. Analytics cookies are set only when analytics is enabled on the Site. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.
What cookies and similar technologies are
Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser. Local storage works in a similar way but stays in your browser and is not sent to our server. This policy covers both.
Cookies we set
- feative_intro_seen: remembers that you have seen or skipped the intro screen, so it does not play again. Session cookie, removed when you close your browser. Strictly necessary for the Site to behave as expected.
- feative-crm: keeps studio staff signed in to our internal CRM. It is only set after a staff login, never for public visitors. HttpOnly, sent over HTTPS only, expires after 14 days.
Local storage we use
- feative-newsletter-subscribed: remembers that you joined our newsletter, so we stop showing the signup popup.
- feative-newsletter-snooze-until: remembers that you dismissed the newsletter popup, so it stays hidden for a while.
Neither item identifies you, and neither is sent to our server.
Analytics
When analytics is enabled, we use:
- Google Analytics 4, with IP anonymization turned on. It sets first-party cookies named _ga and _ga_<ID> to count visits and pages. Google keeps these for up to 2 years. See Google's privacy policy.
- Ahrefs Web Analytics, which Ahrefs describes as cookieless. It measures page views without storing cookies in your browser.
We use analytics only to understand which pages and tools are useful. We do not sell analytics data or use it for advertising.
Third-party content
Some pages embed or link to services run by other companies. These set their own cookies under their own policies when you use them:
- Embedded videos from YouTube or Vimeo on portfolio and case study pages
- Zoho Bookings, when you book a call
- WhatsApp, when you start a chat
- Social platforms, when you follow a link to our profiles
Managing cookies
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking the intro cookie means the intro may play again. To opt out of Google Analytics on every site, use the Google Analytics opt-out add-on.
