Cookie Policy
Last updated: 3 November 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Studio Azul (Lisalotte van Os) uses cookies and similar technologies on www.azulthestudio.com, what they are used for and how you can manage your choices. Please read it together with our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device (computer, tablet or phone) when you visit it. They allow the website to remember information about your visit, such as your preferences, and help it work properly. Some cookies are set by us (first-party cookies); others are set by external services that we use or embed on our pages (third-party cookies).
How we use cookies
We only place cookies that are strictly necessary for the website to work without asking. All other cookies are only used after you have given your consent through the cookie banner. We group cookies into the following categories:
- Necessary – essential for the website to work, for example to keep the site secure and to remember your cookie choices. These cannot be switched off.
- Functional – enable additional features, such as embedded interactive maps, and remember your preferences.
- Statistics – help us understand, in aggregate, how visitors use the website (pages visited, time spent) so that we can improve it.
- Marketing – used by third-party services embedded on the website (e.g. videos or social media content) and to understand which channels bring visitors to us.
Until you accept a category, any embedded content that depends on it (for example maps, videos or social media posts) stays blocked and is replaced by a notice.
