This policy explains what cookies are, which ones ventastudio.com.au uses, and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which covers how we handle personal information more broadly.

1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site (or third-party services it uses) remember information about your visit — like how you got there and what pages you viewed — so it can work properly and be improved over time.
2. Types of cookies we use
We keep things simple and only use cookies for analytics — we don't run advertising or retargeting pixels on this site.
- Analytics cookies — help us understand how visitors use the site (pages viewed, general location, device type) so we can improve it. Set by Google Analytics.
- Functional cookies — set by third-party tools we embed, like Calendly, to make their features work correctly when you use them on our site.
We don't use strictly necessary cookies for core site functionality beyond what your browser needs to load the page, since the site itself doesn't require a login or shopping cart.
3. Cookies used on this site
| Cookie | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga, _ga_* | Google Analytics | Distinguishes unique visitors and tracks site usage in aggregate. | Up to 2 years |
| _gid | Google Analytics | Distinguishes visitors for short-term reporting. | 24 hours |
| Calendly session cookies | Calendly | Enables the booking widget to function when you schedule a call. | Session / varies by Calendly |
4. Third-party cookies
Some cookies are set by services we embed rather than by us directly — currently Google Analytics and Calendly. These providers may use the data collected via cookies for their own purposes, governed by their own privacy and cookie policies:
5. Managing or disabling cookies
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. Most browsers let you block cookies entirely, block third-party cookies only, or clear existing cookies. Blocking analytics cookies won't prevent you from browsing the site or contacting us — it just means we won't see your visit in our analytics.
Since we don't use marketing or advertising cookies, there's nothing to opt out of on that front.
6. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy if the cookies or tools we use change. The "last updated" date at the top of this page will always reflect the most recent revision.
