Cookie Policy for The Spinners Mill Studio

Last Updated: June 23, 2026

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, improve your browsing experience, and provide reporting information to the site owners.

2. How We Use Cookies

The Spinners Mill Studio partnership uses cookies primarily because our website platform, Squarespace, requires them to function reliably. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies to follow you across the internet.

We use cookies for the following purposes:

  • Essential & Functional Cookies: These are strictly necessary so you can navigate our site, use our contact forms, and submit studio booking requests. Without these, parts of our website wouldn't work.

  • Analytics & Performance Cookies: If you accept them, these cookies collect information about how visitors use our site (for example, which pages are visited most often). This helps us understand what content is useful and how we can improve the website experience. This data is aggregated and completely anonymous.

3. The Cookies Used on Our Site

Because we host our website on Squarespace, the specific cookies placed on your browser fall into two main categories:

  • Essential Security Cookies (like 'Crumb'): These are temporary session cookies that disappear the moment you close your browser. They are strictly necessary to make sure our contact and booking forms are secure and protected against spam.

  • Basic Analytics Cookies (like 'ss_cid' and 'ss_cpvisit'): These are persistent cookies that stay on your device for a set period (ranging from 30 minutes to 2 years). They simply count how many unique visitors come to our site and which pages are popular, helping us understand how our website is being used.

4. How You Can Control Cookies

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject non-essential cookies.

  • Our Cookie Banner: When you first visit our website, a banner will appear asking for your consent. Analytics cookies will only be dropped if you click "Accept."

  • Your Browser Settings: You can set or change your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies entirely. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our website, though your access to some functionality and areas of our site may be restricted.

5. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons.
