We encourage you to read this policy to understand our practices regarding cookies and how they affect your interaction with our website.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, or other device when you visit a website. These files contain information that is transferred to your device’s hard drive and can be retrieved by the server that placed the cookie or by other servers that recognize the cookie. Cookies allow websites to recognize your device, store your preferences, and provide you with a more personalized experience.

Cookies serve a variety of functions, such as enabling you to navigate between pages efficiently, remembering your preferences, and generally improving your user experience. They can also help ensure that the advertisements you see online are more relevant to you and your interests.

2. How We Use Cookies

We use cookies to enhance your experience on The Red Studio website by remembering your preferences, providing insights into how the site is used, and delivering relevant content and advertisements. Below are the specific ways in which we use cookies:

2.1. Ensuring Website Functionality

Some cookies are essential for the operation of our website. Without these cookies, certain services you have asked for, such as navigating between pages or accessing secure areas of the site, cannot be provided. These cookies do not gather any information about you that could be used for marketing purposes or tracking your browsing history.

2.2. Improving User Experience

We use cookies to remember your preferences and choices, such as your language preference, region, or login details. This helps us provide you with a more personalized experience and makes it easier for you to navigate the site. These cookies may also be used to remember settings you have applied, such as text size, font, or other customizable elements of the website.

2.3. Analyzing Website Performance

Performance cookies collect information about how visitors use our website, including which pages are visited most frequently and whether users encounter any errors. These cookies are used to improve the way our website works and ensure that visitors have a seamless experience. The information collected by these cookies is aggregated and anonymized, meaning it does not identify you personally.

2.4. Targeted Advertising

We use targeting or advertising cookies to deliver content and advertisements that are more relevant to your interests. These cookies may track your browsing habits across different websites and build a profile of your interests. This information can be shared with other organizations, such as advertisers, to deliver targeted ads. These cookies also help to limit the number of times you see an ad and measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We use a combination of first-party and third-party cookies on our website. The specific types of cookies we use include:

3.1. First-Party Cookies

3.2. Third-Party Cookies

Third-party cookies are set by domains other than The Red Studio, such as our partners or service providers. These cookies may be used for analytics purposes, to deliver targeted advertising, or to integrate social media features. Third-party cookies are subject to the privacy policies of the respective third parties.

3.3. Session Cookies

Session cookies are temporary cookies that remain on your device until you close your web browser. These cookies help you navigate through the website quickly and efficiently without having to log in repeatedly.

3.4. Persistent Cookies

Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. These cookies are used to remember your preferences and actions across multiple visits to our website. For example, a persistent cookie may remember your login information, so you don’t have to enter it each time you visit.

4. Third-Party Cookies and Services

In addition to our own cookies, we use third-party cookies and services to help us analyze our website’s performance and deliver targeted content. These third parties include:

4.1. Google Analytics

Google Analytics uses cookies to collect data on how users interact with our website. This data is used to compile reports and improve the site. The information generated by these cookies about your use of our website is transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google may also transfer this information to third parties if required by law or if these third parties process the information on Google’s behalf.

4.2. Social Media Plugins

Our website may include social media features, such as the Facebook Like button or Twitter Tweet button. These features may collect your IP address and the page you are visiting on our site and may set a cookie to enable the feature to function properly. Social media features are either hosted by a third party or hosted directly on our website. Your interactions with these features are governed by the privacy policy of the company providing them.

4.3. Advertising Networks

We work with third-party advertising networks that use cookies to deliver ads that are relevant to your interests. These cookies collect information about your browsing behavior across different websites and use this information to deliver targeted advertisements. You can opt out of interest-based advertising through your browser settings or by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative’s opt-out page.

5. How to Manage Your Cookie Preferences

You have the right to choose whether to accept or reject cookies. You can manage your cookie preferences through the following options:

5.1. Browser Settings

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings preferences. You can set your browser to block or delete cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent to your device. However, please note that if you block cookies, some features of our website may not function as intended, and your experience may be affected.

5.2. Cookie Consent Tools

When you first visit our website, you will see a cookie consent banner that allows you to manage your cookie preferences. You can choose to accept all cookies, reject all cookies except essential ones, or customize your cookie settings based on your preferences. You can change your cookie preferences at any time by accessing the cookie settings through the banner or by clearing your browser’s cookies and revisiting the site.

5.3. Opting Out of Targeted Advertising

If you do not want your online behavior to be tracked for advertising purposes, you can opt out of targeted advertising through various mechanisms:

  • Digital Advertising Alliance: Opt-Out Page
  • Network Advertising Initiative: Opt-Out Page
  • European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance: Your Online Choices

Please note that opting out of targeted advertising does not mean you will no longer see advertisements; it only means that the ads you see may be less relevant to your interests.

6. How Long Do Cookies Last?

The lifespan of a cookie on your device depends on whether it is a session cookie or a persistent cookie:

  • Session Cookies: These cookies are temporary and are deleted once you close your browser. They are used to maintain the continuity of your session as you navigate through the website.
