Cookie Policy

Last Updated: 17. May 2025

Azulia Studio ("us", "we", or "our") uses cookies on the https://azuliastudio.biz website (the "Service"). By using the Service, you consent to the use of cookies as described in this policy and our general Privacy Policy.

Our Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use cookies, how third-parties we may partner with may use cookies on the Service, your choices regarding cookies and further information about cookies.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small pieces of text sent by your web browser by a website you visit. A cookie file is stored in your web browser and allows the Service or a third-party to recognize you and make your next visit easier and the Service more useful to you.

Cookies can be "persistent" or "session" cookies. Persistent cookies remain on your personal computer or mobile device when you go offline, while session cookies are deleted as soon as you close your web browser.

How Azulia Studio uses cookies

When you use and access the Service, we may place a number of cookies files in your web browser.

We use cookies for the following purposes:

  • To enable certain functions of the Service (Essential Cookies)
  • To provide analytics on Service usage (Analytics Cookies)
  • To store your preferences (Preferences Cookies)
  • To ensure security and prevent fraudulent use (Security Cookies)

We use both session and persistent cookies on the Service and we use different types of cookies to run the Service:

  • Essential Cookies: These cookies are necessary for the Service to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the site will not then work. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information.
    Legal Basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in providing a functional website).
  • Analytics Cookies: We use these cookies to understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously (e.g., via Google Analytics). This helps us to improve our website.
    Legal Basis: Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR (your consent, typically obtained via a cookie banner).
  • Preferences Cookies: These cookies enable the website to remember information that changes the way the website behaves or looks, like your preferred language or the region that you are in.
    Legal Basis: Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR (your consent).
  • Security Cookies: We may use security cookies to authenticate users, prevent fraudulent use of login credentials, and protect user data from unauthorized parties. For example, Formspree (our contact form provider) and Cloudflare (our CDN and security provider) may use cookies for these purposes.
    Legal Basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in securing our services).

Third-Party Cookies

In addition to our own cookies, we may also use cookies from third-party services that are integrated into our website. These third parties may set their own cookies. We do not control the use of these cookies and cannot access them due to the way that cookies work, as cookies can only be accessed by the party who originally set them. You should check the third-party websites for more information about these cookies.

5.2.1. Google Analytics

As detailed in our Privacy Policy (Section 5.2), we use Google Analytics. This service uses cookies to collect information about how visitors use our site. We use the information to compile reports and to help us improve the site. The cookies collect information in an anonymous form, including the number of visitors to the site, where visitors have come to the site from and the pages they visited.

The legal basis for using Google Analytics cookies is your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), which you can provide or withdraw via our cookie consent management tool.

For more information on Google Analytics cookies, see the official Google Analytics documentation and Google's privacy policy. You can opt-out of Google Analytics tracking by using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

5.2.2. Formspree

As detailed in our Privacy Policy (Section 5.1), our contact forms are managed by Formspree. Formspree may use cookies for the functionality and security of the forms (e.g., spam prevention).

The legal basis for cookies essential to the form submission process is our legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) in providing a functional contact method.

For more information, please refer to Formspree's privacy and cookie policies.

5.2.3. Cloudflare

As detailed in our Privacy Policy (Section 5.3), we use Cloudflare as a CDN and for security. Cloudflare may place cookies for security purposes, such as identifying trusted web traffic.

The legal basis for necessary security cookies set by Cloudflare is our legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

For more information, consult Cloudflare's cookie policy.

5.2.4. Google Fonts (Self-Hosted)

As detailed in our Privacy Policy (Section 5.4), we use Google Fonts that are self-hosted. This means fonts are served from our own server, and typically, this method does not involve Google setting cookies or directly receiving your IP address when fonts are loaded on your browser from our site. No third-party cookies are expected from this specific implementation.

Your Choices Regarding Cookies

You have several options to control or limit how we and third parties use cookies:

  • Cookie Consent Tool: Where we use cookies that require your consent (e.g., for analytics or preferences), we will provide you with a cookie consent management tool (cookie banner) when you first visit our website. You can use this tool to make granular choices about the types of cookies you accept or reject. You can typically change your preferences at any time by accessing the tool again (e.g., via a "Cookie Settings" link in the footer).
  • Browser Settings: Most web browsers allow some control of most cookies through the browser settings. You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when websites set or access cookies. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of this website may become inaccessible or not function properly.
  • Opt-out Links: For some third-party analytics or advertising cookies, you may be able to opt-out directly by visiting their websites (e.g., Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on).

Please note, however, that if you delete cookies or refuse to accept them, you might not be able to use all of the features we offer, you may not be able to store your preferences, and some of our pages might not display properly. The legal basis for essential cookies (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) means they do not require consent, but you can still block them via browser settings, albeit with potential loss of functionality.

Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update our Cookie Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Cookie Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date at the top. You are advised to review this Cookie Policy periodically for any changes.
