1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help pages remember choices, keep sessions secure, and let owners understand how a site is used. They are not programs and they cannot inspect the rest of your device.
Some browsers also offer “local storage” which works in a similar way. Where we mention cookies in this policy, we include comparable browser storage technologies.
2. How we use cookies
We use cookies sparingly. Our goal is simply to keep the site working smoothly and respect your time. The cookies and storage entries we may set fall into three groups:
2.1 Strictly necessary
These are required for the website to function. They enable basic navigation, security features, and remembering whether you have dismissed the privacy notice on this site. Without these the site cannot work properly.
2.2 Preference
These remember small choices, such as collapsing or expanding sections, so that the experience feels continuous between visits.
2.3 Aggregate analytics
If we enable analytics in the future, we will use a privacy-respecting tool that does not identify you individually and does not share data with advertising networks. Until that time, no analytics cookies are set by our site.
3. Third-party cookies
Our website embeds a Google Map on the Contact page so visitors can find our South Yarra studio. Google may set its own cookies when the map loads. We do not control these cookies; please refer to Google’s own privacy materials for details.
We do not use cookies for advertising, behavioural tracking across other websites, or social media integrations.
4. Managing your preferences
You can manage cookies directly through your browser’s settings. Most browsers allow you to view stored cookies, delete them, and prevent new ones from being set. You can also use private or incognito browsing modes which discard most cookies when you close the window.
Disabling strictly necessary cookies may cause parts of our site, such as the privacy notice or the contact form, to behave unexpectedly.
5. Retention
Each cookie has its own expiry date. The cookie we use to remember that you have accepted the privacy notice expires after twelve months. Browser session cookies are removed automatically when you close the browser.
6. Updates
We may update this Cookies Policy if we introduce new tools, retire existing ones, or where law requires us to do so. The “last updated” date above shows when this page was last revised.
7. Questions
If you have any questions about how we use cookies, contact us at community@flushzypurge.world or visit our studio at 34 River St, South Yarra VIC 3141, Australia.
