Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how BlendLab uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website at blendlab.net and any related sites or applications we operate (collectively, the “Site”). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

Cookies are widely used to make websites work, remember preferences, improve performance, and understand how visitors use a site. By continuing to use our Site, you agree to the use of cookies in accordance with this policy (subject to your browser settings and any consent mechanisms we provide).

1. What are cookies and similar technologies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, pixels, and scripts that store or access information on your device.

First-party cookies are set by us; third-party cookies are set by partners we use (for example, analytics or advertising providers). We describe both below.

2. How we use cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

Strictly necessary

To enable core functionality — such as security, load balancing, authentication (where applicable), and remembering cookie consent choices.
These cookies are typically required for the Site to operate and may not be disabled through our tools without affecting functionality.

Functional and performance

To remember preferences (such as language or region) and to measure performance so we can improve speed and reliability.

Analytics

To understand how visitors navigate the Site — for example, page views, traffic sources, and approximate geography — aggregated where possible.
We may use services such as Google Analytics (or equivalent) subject to their terms and our privacy practices.

Marketing and advertising

Where you have consented or where permitted by law, we may use cookies to measure advertising effectiveness, attribute conversions, and deliver relevant ads on our Site or third-party platforms.
Third-party advertising partners may set their own cookies subject to their policies.

3. Third-party services

We may integrate third-party tools that set cookies. Examples include analytics and advertising platforms (such as Google Analytics and Google Ads). These providers may process data in accordance with their privacy policies. We encourage you to review those policies and use opt-out tools they provide where available.

4. Session and persistent cookies

Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain for a defined period or until you delete them. Retention periods vary by cookie type and purpose; marketing cookies may persist longer than strictly necessary cookies.

5. Your choices

You can control cookies through your browser settings — including blocking or deleting cookies. Most browsers accept cookies by default; you can change this in the help or settings menu.

If you disable certain cookies, parts of the Site may not function correctly (for example, login or preference storage). Where we use a cookie consent banner or preference center, you may update your choices there.

You can also use industry opt-out mechanisms for interest-based advertising where available in your region.

6. “Do Not Track” signals

There is no universally accepted standard for how browsers communicate “Do Not Track” signals. We do not currently respond to all such signals in a uniform way; we rely on applicable law, consent mechanisms, and cookie controls described above.

7. Updates to this Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in technology, law, or our practices. The “Last updated” date will be revised accordingly. Material changes may be highlighted on the Site.
