Our Approach to Cookies

We keep cookies to a minimum.

Like most websites, videopainter.art uses a small number of cookies so the site works properly and remembers your choices. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which kinds we use, and how you can control them. It works together with our Privacy, Consent & Confidentiality Policy, which explains how we handle your personal information and your images.

In this policy, “we,” “us,” “our” and “Video Painter” mean the Video Painter business operated by Todd Bluewater. “You” means anyone visiting or using the website.

Our guiding principle is simple:

Your Browser. Your Data. Your Choice.

1. What Cookies Are

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your computer, phone or tablet when you visit. They let the site recognize your device, keep features working from page to page, and remember settings you have chosen.

Some cookies are set by us. Others may be set by third-party services that provide features on our site. This policy also covers similar technologies, such as browser local storage, that serve the same purposes.

2. Session & Persistent Cookies

Cookies are either session cookies or persistent cookies.

• Session cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser.
• Persistent cookies stay on your device for a set period, or until you delete them, so the site can remember you on a later visit.

We use both types, for the purposes described below.

3. Cookie Categories We Use

The cookie banner on our website groups cookies into four categories. Only Necessary cookies are active by default. The other categories are used only if you allow them.

• Necessary
• Functional
• Analytical
• Advertisement

4. Necessary Cookies

Necessary cookies are required for the website to work. They keep the site secure, help prevent fraud and spam on our forms, keep pages loading correctly, and remember the cookie choices you make in our banner. If our online shop is enabled, they also keep the contents of your shopping bag as you move between pages.

Because the site cannot function properly without them, these cookies cannot be turned off in our cookie banner. They do not track you across other websites.

5. Functional Cookies

Functional cookies remember choices you make on the site, such as preferences and settings, so you don’t have to set them again each time you visit. We use them only with your consent.

6. Analytical & Advertisement Cookies

Analytical cookies help us understand how visitors use the website, such as which pages are viewed most, so we can improve it. Advertisement cookies help measure the results of our marketing and may be used to show relevant ads on other platforms.

These cookies may be set by third-party providers and may be linked to a pseudonymous identifier for your device. We use them only if you choose to allow them in our cookie banner. If you decline, they are not set.

7. Your Consent & Cookie Preferences

When you first visit videopainter.art, our cookie banner lets you accept all cookies, reject all optional cookies, or choose category by category.

You can change your mind at any time. Use the cookie settings icon shown on the website to reopen your preferences, update your choices, or withdraw consent. Your new choices take effect from that point forward.

Rejecting optional cookies will not stop you from browsing our gallery, reading about our sessions, or requesting a consultation.

8. Managing Cookies in Your Browser

You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. If you block all cookies, some parts of the website, such as forms and your saved cookie choices, may not work properly.

Your browser’s help pages explain how to manage cookies:

• Google Chrome: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/32050
• Mozilla Firefox: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/delete-cookies-remove-info-websites-stored
• Apple Safari: https://support.apple.com/guide/safari/manage-cookies-and-website-data-sfri11471/mac
• Microsoft Edge: Settings > Cookies and site permissions
• Phones and tablets: see your device’s browser settings, usually under Privacy or Site Settings

9. Third-Party Sites & Social Media

Our website links to our profiles on YouTube, X, Facebook and Instagram, and testimonials may link to models’ own social media pages. When you follow those links, the other sites may set their own cookies under their own policies. We do not control those cookies, so please review the cookie and privacy policies of any site you visit.

10. Cookies & Your Private Images

Cookies never store your photographs, session images or artwork. Session images are handled only as described in our Privacy, Consent & Confidentiality Policy, and are never shared, exhibited or sold without your written consent.

11. Current Cookie List

The table below lists the cookies currently identified on our website, by category. It updates as our cookie consent system detects and classifies cookies.

12. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy when our website, services or legal requirements change. The “Last Updated” date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised. If we begin using a new type of optional cookie, we will ask for your consent before it is used.

13. Contact Video Painter

If you have any questions about this Cookie Policy or how we use cookies, please contact us.
