Cookie Policy
Last updated: November 17, 2025
1. Good news: we don't use cookies!
At Origin Studio, we've made the deliberate choice not to use cookies on our website. We believe in a privacy-respecting approach and have implemented alternative solutions to analyze our site usage without compromising your privacy.
2. What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on your computer or mobile device when you visit it. Cookies allow the site to remember your actions and preferences over a period of time.
Common types of cookies:
- Essential cookies: necessary for site operation
- Performance cookies: analyze site usage
- Marketing cookies: track your online activity
- Third-party cookies: placed by external services
3. Our cookie-free approach
Instead of using cookies, we've opted for Umami Analytics, a modern and privacy-friendly web analytics solution that:
✅ Works without cookies ✅ Automatically anonymizes all data ✅ Does not track individual users ✅ Does not share data with third parties ✅ Is GDPR-compliant without requiring a consent banner ✅ Respects browser "Do Not Track" settings
4. What we collect (without cookies)
Through Umami Analytics, we only collect aggregated and anonymous data:
- Pages visited
- Visit duration
- Country of origin (based on anonymized IP address)
- Device type (computer, mobile, tablet)
- Browser type
- Operating system
This data helps us understand how our site is used and improve it, while fully respecting your privacy.
5. Local Storage
Our site may use browser local storage (localStorage) to improve your experience, for example to remember your language preferences. This data is stored only on your device and is never transmitted to our servers.
6. Third-Party Services
We do not integrate third-party services that use cookies (such as Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, etc.). The only external services are:
- Umami Analytics: Cookie-free analytics
- Infomaniak: Web hosting in Switzerland
7. Browser Settings
Even though we don't use cookies, you can configure your browser to block all cookies if you wish. Here's how:
Chrome: Settings > Privacy and security > Cookies Firefox: Options > Privacy and security > Cookies Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Cookies Edge: Settings > Privacy > Cookies
8. Do Not Track
We respect your browser's "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. If you have enabled DNT, Umami Analytics will not collect any analytics data from your visit.
9. Modifications to this Policy
If we decide to use cookies in the future, we will update this policy and clearly inform you. We will always continue to favor privacy-friendly solutions.
