Cookie Policy

Last updated: 20 May 2026
Effective date: 20 May 2026

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your web browser when you visit a website. They are used to remember information about your visit, such as your language preference or whether you have accepted certain types of tracking. Similar technologies (such as local storage, pixels, and HTTP-only identifiers) are used for analogous purposes and are covered by this Policy.

This Cookie Policy explains which cookies and similar technologies are used on cr8d.co (the "Site"), who sets them, and how you can manage your consent. It complements our Privacy Policy.

2. Categories of cookies we use

The cookies and similar technologies on the Site fall into four categories. The first category is required for the Site to work; the others are loaded only with your consent, expressed through the cookie banner displayed on your first visit.

2.1 Strictly necessary

Required for the Site to function. These include the cookie used to remember your cookie-consent choice itself and the cookie used to remember the language you have selected. You cannot disable strictly necessary cookies through the cookie banner; you can refuse them by disabling cookies in your browser, but the Site may not function correctly.

2.2 Functional

Improve your experience but are not strictly necessary — for example, remembering display preferences. Loaded only with your consent.

2.3 Analytics

Help us understand how visitors use the Site in aggregate, so we can improve content and design. Loaded only with your consent.

2.4 Advertising / Marketing

Enable the Site to serve advertisements that are relevant to you and to measure how effectively ads are performing. Loaded only with your consent. Where consent is withheld, advertisements may still be served in non-personalised form, based only on the page you are viewing.

3. How to manage your cookie choices

You can:

• Click "Cookie preferences" in the footer of any page on the Site to open the cookie preferences modal at any time. You can enable or disable any non-strictly-necessary category.
• Click "Do not sell or share my personal information" in the footer (for California residents and others with comparable rights) — this opens the same preferences modal.
• Configure your browser to refuse cookies or to alert you when a cookie is being set. See your browser's help documentation:
  • Chrome
  • Firefox
  • Safari
  • Edge

Note that disabling cookies in your browser is broader than disabling them on the Site and may affect your experience on other sites.

4. Cookies set on this Site

The following tables list cookies and similar technologies known to be set on the Site, by category. Third-party cookies may be updated by the third party that sets them; please consult the linked privacy policies for the most current information.

4.1 Strictly necessary

4.2 Functional

No cookies currently set in this category. Listed for completeness; future features may introduce functional cookies, in which case this Policy will be updated.

4.3 Analytics

4.4 Advertising / Marketing

4.5 Third-party embedded content

When the Site embeds video from YouTube (which it does on article pages), YouTube may set its own cookies on your device when the embed loads. These include:

CR8D does not control YouTube cookies. They are governed by Google's own privacy policy and cookie policy. If you have refused marketing cookies via our cookie banner, the YouTube embed will use YouTube's "Privacy Enhanced Mode" where available, which limits the cookies set by the embed.

5. Similar technologies

In addition to cookies, the Site uses:

• Local storage and session storage in your browser, set by the cookie consent library and by analytics / advertising tags, for purposes equivalent to those of the cookies listed above.
• Web beacons (1x1 transparent images) and tracking pixels used by analytics and advertising tags to measure delivery and engagement.

These technologies are covered by the consent categories above on the same basis as cookies.

6. International data transfers

The third-party services listed in the tables above may transfer data outside the UK or European Economic Area. Such transfers are subject to the safeguards described in our Privacy Policy.

7. Changes to this Cookie Policy

We update this Cookie Policy when the cookies on the Site change, or when applicable law changes. The "Last updated" date at the top indicates the most recent revision.
