Cookie policy

1. What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small file that a website stores in your browser to remember information about your visit (preferences, session, statistics and so on).

2. Does this site use cookies?

No. Espurna Studio installs no analytics, tracking, advertising or social media cookies. We do not use Google Analytics or anything like it, and we do not build browsing profiles. That is why you will not see a cookie banner: there is nothing to consent to.

This applies to this site. The demo builds you can open from here (espurna.studio/demos/…) are independent sites with their own behaviour: see section 5.

2 bis. A counter, and exactly what it counts

This site runs its own counter, on its own server, to know how many people reach each part of the page. It is not a cookie and nothing like one: it stores nothing in your browser.

All that is stored, and this is literally all of it, is a daily total:

It does not store your IP address —not in full, not truncated, not hashed— nor your browser, your language, where you came from, the time of day or any identifier. It does not store anyone’s path either: the steps are added up separately, so those numbers cannot tell you “this person did this and then that”. We know 143 arrived and 4 wrote in; we do not know who, and there is no way to find out afterwards.

That is why there is still no banner: with no personal data there is no consent to ask for (GDPR, art. 4.1). And that is why there is nothing there you could ask us to delete: no row in it is yours.

3. Strictly necessary cookies

Where strictly necessary, the site may use a technical cookie required for it to work correctly or securely. Cookies of this kind are exempt from the consent requirement under current legislation and are not used to track you.

We do store one value in your browser’s local storage (espurna.viaje.completo): the date you finished the journey through the solar system. It does exactly one thing — if you come back, the transitions run faster so you don’t have to sit through the whole film again — and it expires after 30 days. It is not a cookie, it never reaches the server, it holds no identifier and it is not used for measurement or profiling. You can remove it by clearing the site’s data in your browser.

And if you press «Stop the motion» in the header, a second value is stored (espurna.movimiento.parado) to remember that choice on your next visit and not animate the scene again unless you ask for it. It is a plain «yes», with no date and no identifier, and it disappears as soon as you turn the animation back on or clear the site’s data.

4. Third-party services

On this site, fonts and every other asset are served from our own domain, with no calls to external servers that could install cookies (the demo builds in section 5 are a separate case). The site is hosted by Hostinger, which may log technical server data (such as your IP address) for security and operational purposes, never for advertising.

5. The demo builds (/demos/)

From this site you can open several demo builds, which load in a new tab under espurna.studio/demos/…. They are samples of our work using fictional brands and they run independently, so it is worth knowing that the following does happen there:

None of this is used to profile you or for advertising, and it does not affect browsing this site: it only happens if you open a demo.

6. How to manage cookies

Even though this site installs no non-essential cookies, you can set your browser to block or delete any cookie at any time from its privacy settings (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge and so on).

If we ever add analytics or third-party cookies, we will update this policy and ask for your consent beforehand.
