Cookie Policy

At Blur, we believe in clarity and transparency when it comes to collecting and processing data about you. This page is designed to inform you about our cookie practices and explain how you can manage them.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files sent to or accessible from your web browser or device memory. A cookie typically contains the domain name (Internet address) from which the cookie originated, the "lifetime" of the cookie (i.e., when it expires), and a randomly generated unique number or similar identifier. A cookie may also contain information about your device, such as user settings, browsing history, and activities performed while using our services.

Are there different types of cookies?

First-party and third-party cookies

There are first-party cookies and third-party cookies. First-party cookies are placed on your device directly by us. For example, we use first-party cookies to adapt our website to your browser's language preferences and to better understand the use of our website. Third-party cookies are placed on your device by our partners and service providers.

Session and persistent cookies

There are session cookies and persistent cookies. Session cookies last only until you close your browser. We use session cookies for a number of reasons, including to learn more about your use of our website during a single browser session and to help you use our website more efficiently. Persistent cookies have a longer lifespan, beyond the current session. These types of cookies can be used to facilitate quick access to our website, for analytical purposes, and for other reasons, described below.

What about other tracking technologies, such as web beacons and SDKs?

Other technologies such as web beacons (also called pixels, tags, or clear gifs), tracking URLs, or software development kits (SDKs) are used for similar purposes as cookies. Web beacons are small graphic files containing a unique identifier, which allow us to recognize when someone has visited our service or opened an email we sent them. Tracking URLs are custom-generated links that help us understand where traffic to our web pages comes from. SDKs are small pieces of code included in apps, which work like cookies and web beacons.

For simplicity, in this Cookie Policy, we also refer to these technologies as "cookies."

To achieve these goals, we may also link cookie information to other personal information we hold about you.
