Cookie Policy
Last updated: 15 September 2026 - Version 2026-09-15.1
1. What cookies and similar technologies are
A cookie is a small text file a site stores in your browser. Similar technologies do the same job in other ways: localStorage and sessionStorage keep small values in the browser (sessionStorage is wiped when you close the tab), and pixels are tiny invisible files that report that a page or email was opened. This policy covers all of them.
2. How we ask for consent
- On your first visit a banner appears at the bottom of the page. It never blocks the content and never closes by itself - scrolling is not consent.
- You choose per category: strictly necessary (always on), analytics, marketing. Analytics and marketing are off until you switch them on.
- Refusing is exactly as easy as accepting: Accept all, Reject all and Customize sit side by side, same size, same prominence.
- Nothing non-essential - no cookie, script, pixel, third-party font or third-party media call - runs before you opt in.
- You can change or withdraw your choice at any time via the link in the footer of every page.
- Your choice is stored for 6 months; after that, or if this policy version changes, we ask again.
- If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as a refusal of analytics and marketing, and as a Do Not Sell or Share opt-out.
3. What this site actually stores
| Name | Provider | Category | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ias_consent | First party (iascreative.com) | Strictly necessary | Stores your cookie choices, plus a consent ID, timestamp and policy version as proof of consent | 6 months |
| tsr-scroll-restoration-v1_3 (sessionStorage) | First party (iascreative.com) | Strictly necessary | Remembers your scroll position when you move between pages so the site does not jump | Until the tab is closed |
No analytics cookies are currently set, and no marketing or advertising cookies, pixels or trackers are used on this site. The categories exist in the banner so that if we ever add measurement, it can only run with your consent.
4. Third-party services
- Media delivery (CDN). The images and videos on this site are served from our media storage on a content delivery network. It receives the technical data needed to send you a file (IP address, user agent, requested file). It sets no cookies and does not track you across sites. This is strictly necessary to display the pages.
- Fonts. The Poppins typeface is hosted on our own domain. No request is made to Google Fonts, so no IP address is sent to Google to display this site.
- Calendly. The booking scheduler on the contact page is loaded from calendly.com, but only after you click "Open the scheduler" or accept marketing cookies. Until then nothing is requested from Calendly. Booking links also open calendly.com in a new page when you click them. In both cases Calendly's own privacy policy applies (calendly.com/privacy).
- Maps. The two studio maps on the contact page are map tiles loaded from openstreetmap.org when that page is opened. OpenStreetMap sets no cookies for this embed; it receives your IP address and browser information to serve the tiles.
- Google Business reviews. The reviews shown on the homepage are fetched by our server from Google and cached there. Your browser never contacts Google for them, so no data about you is sent to Google.
- Social and external links. LinkedIn and similar links are plain links - they load nothing until you click.
5. Managing cookies in your browser
- Chrome: Settings - Privacy and security - Third-party cookies / Delete browsing data.
- Safari: Settings - Privacy - Manage Website Data (iOS: Settings - Safari).
- Firefox: Settings - Privacy & Security - Cookies and Site Data.
- Edge: Settings - Cookies and site permissions - Manage and delete cookies.
Blocking strictly necessary storage may break parts of the site - for example we would have to ask for your cookie choice on every page.
6. What happens if you refuse
Everything keeps working. Every page, project, video and the contact form behave exactly the same. The only thing we lose is anonymous measurement of how the site is used.
7. Updates and contact
When we add or remove a technology we update this page and its version number, and raise the consent version so the banner asks you again. Questions: info@iasatelier.com. See also our Privacy Policy.
