OpenPaparazzi Ltd – Cookie Policy
Last Updated: 08 June 2025 | Effective Date: 08 June 2025
At OpenPaparazzi Ltd, we like to be upfront – and that includes our use of cookies. Cookies aren’t just tasty treats; in the digital world, they’re small data files stored on your device that help us enhance your experience, understand how our platform is used, and show you content that matters.
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them on our website and app, and how you can manage your preferences in line with the UK GDPR and ePrivacy Directive.
(1) What Are Cookies?
Cookies are tiny text files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website or use an app. They’re widely used to make websites work efficiently and to provide reporting information. Some cookies are essential for our site to function properly. Others help us improve your experience.
(2) Types of Cookies We Use
We use the following categories of cookies:
Strictly Necessary Cookies – These are essential for the website to function (e.g., to log in, access secure areas, or make payments). They cannot be switched off.
Performance Cookies – These help us understand how users interact with our Platform, so we can improve it. Data is anonymised.
Functional Cookies – These remember your preferences (like language settings) to enhance functionality and personalization.
Targeting/Advertising Cookies – These are used to deliver adverts more relevant to you and to measure ad campaign effectiveness.
(3) Cookie Consent and Control
We use a cookie management tool (likely via Squarespace or a compatible CMP integration) that allows you to:
Accept all cookies
Reject non-essential cookies
Manage cookie preferences via a preferences panel
You’ll see a cookie banner when you first visit our site. You can update your preferences at any time by clicking the "Cookie Settings" link in the footer.
Consent records are stored securely, and you can withdraw consent at any time.
(4) Third-Party Cookies
We may use third-party cookies in the future to help us understand platform usage, deliver advertising, or improve functionality. These cookies would be placed by services integrated into our site, and we will update this policy and the cookie preferences tool accordingly if and when they are introduced.
(5) Retention Periods
Cookies have different lifespans:
Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser.
Persistent cookies remain until they expire or you delete them manually.
Our CMP regularly scans and updates our cookie list. You can view the current list via the cookie preferences tool.
(6) Managing Cookies in Your Browser
Most web browsers allow control over cookies through settings. You can block or delete cookies using your browser settings.
(7) Updates to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in law or our use of cookies. Any significant changes will be communicated via the cookie banner or on this page.
