In short

We don’t use advertising or tracking cookies, so there’s no cookie banner. The studio stores your work in your browser so it’s there when you come back, and signing in uses one small cookie.

1. What we store in your browser

  • Your projects and photographs. The studio keeps them in your browser’s storage so your work is still there next time. This is essential to how the studio works.
  • Signing in. A small file keeps you signed in, so you don’t need a new link each time. [Confirm whether this is a cookie or browser storage once accounts are built.]
  • Your choices. Small settings, such as the last format you chose. [Confirm.]

These are strictly necessary for things you’ve asked for, so the law doesn’t require us to ask first.

2. Statistics

Our site statistics don’t use cookies or identify you. [Confirm once the statistics service is chosen.]

3. Payments

While the checkout is open, our payment provider stores what it needs to take your payment securely. See its own cookie notice.

4. Clearing them

You can clear your browser’s storage at any time in its settings. Clearing it deletes any project you haven’t saved as a project file, so save one first.
