These cookies help ensure the website operates smoothly, while also allowing Bold Studio to gather insights on site usage and deliver relevant content. The types of cookies used are outlined below:
Essential Cookies: Essential cookies are necessary for the fundamental operation of the website. They enable core features, such as secure login, navigation, and access to restricted sections of the website. Without these cookies, certain parts of the site may not function properly, and users may experience limited access to essential services.
Performance and Analytics Cookies: Performance and analytics cookies collect anonymized data about how users interact with the website, such as which pages are visited most frequently, time spent on the site, and any error messages encountered. These cookies allow Bold Studio to analyze site performance, optimize content, and enhance user experience. Examples may include cookies set by analytics services, such as Google Analytics, which provide insights into website usage trends without identifying individual users.
Advertising and Targeting Cookies: Advertising and targeting cookies are used to track user behavior across visits and deliver personalized advertisements based on user preferences. These cookies help Bold Studio and its advertising partners understand user interests, enabling the delivery of relevant ads and reducing repetitive advertisements. Through interest-based targeting, advertising cookies allow for more customized and meaningful marketing efforts.

By retaining these customizations, functional cookies contribute to a smoother and more efficient user experience.
2. HOW WE USE COOKIES
Bold Studio uses cookies to collect and analyze data that enables us to enhance website performance, tailor content, and deliver personalized experiences to users. Cookies serve a variety of functions in supporting the website’s functionality and providing valuable insights into user interactions. The ways in which Bold Studio utilizes cookies are detailed below:
Tracking and Analytics: Cookies enable Bold Studio to gather anonymous data on how users navigate and interact with the website. By tracking page visits, clicks, and other engagement metrics, these cookies allow us to understand site traffic patterns and make informed improvements to content, layout, and functionality.
Advertising: Advertising cookies facilitate personalized marketing by tracking user behavior and preferences across visits. This allows Bold Studio, in collaboration with advertising partners, to deliver advertisements tailored to user interests, enhancing the relevance of promotional content. Additionally, advertising cookies limit the frequency of repetitive ads, improving the overall ad experience for users. Where applicable, Bold Studio may work with third-party advertising partners who utilize their own cookies to support interest-based advertising efforts.
User Experience Enhancement: Functional cookies allow Bold Studio to remember user settings and preferences, such as language choices and display configurations, across visits. By retaining these settings, the website can offer a more personalized experience, enabling users to navigate the site according to their established preferences. Functional cookies contribute to a smoother user experience by reducing the need for users to re-enter settings or make repeated adjustments.
3. THIRD-PARTY COOKIES
Bold Studio may allow select third-party service providers to place cookies on our website to assist with analytics, advertising, and performance optimization. These third-party cookies are utilized to collect and process data on behalf of Bold Studio, helping us understand user behavior, improve the website, and deliver relevant advertisements. Third-party cookies may be set by external partners, such as analytics platforms or advertising networks, and are governed by the privacy policies of these third parties.

4. COOKIE MANAGEMENT AND USER PREFERENCES
Bold Studio provides users with the ability to manage and control their cookie preferences to support personalized privacy choices. Users may adjust their cookie settings on our website through a cookie consent management tool, typically displayed as a banner or preference center. This tool allows users to accept or reject certain categories of cookies, including essential, performance, advertising, and functional cookies, in accordance with their preferences.
Additionally, users can control cookies through their browser settings. Most web browsers allow users to manage, disable, or delete cookies stored on their devices. Instructions for managing cookies can be found within the settings or help section of the browser, and users may choose to block new cookies, delete existing ones, or set preferences for specific websites. However, it is important to note that disabling certain cookies may impact the functionality and usability of the website, and some features may not work as intended if cookies are restricted.
For users wishing to clear existing cookies, browser tools provide options to remove previously stored data. This action will require users to re-enter preferences upon their next visit to the website, as cleared cookies erase saved settings and configurations. Bold Studio respects user choices regarding cookie management and encourages users to make informed decisions to optimize their browsing experience.
5. IMPACT OF DISABLING COOKIES
Disabling or restricting certain types of cookies may affect the functionality and usability of Bold Studio’s website. Essential cookies are necessary for the core operation of the site; therefore, if these are disabled, users may experience limited access to certain sections, and key features may not function properly. Essential cookies support secure login, navigation, and other basic functionalities, and disabling them could impair the website’s performance and accessibility.
In addition, disabling performance, analytics, and functional cookies may reduce the site’s ability to remember user preferences, such as language settings or display configurations, leading to a less personalized experience. Advertising and targeting cookies, when disabled, will limit the relevance of ads displayed on the website, resulting in more generic advertisements instead of interest-based, tailored marketing.
Users are encouraged to consider the impact of disabling cookies on their browsing experience. Bold Studio respects user privacy and provides tools to manage cookie preferences, but advises that complete or partial cookie restriction may lead to a suboptimal user experience and reduce access to certain features.
