🌶️ 1. What’s This All About?
You’re here because you clicked “accept” or you’re suspiciously curious—and we respect that.
So here’s the deal:
What are “Trackers”?
Trackers are the behind-the-scenes tech wizards that help us know if you’re new here, coming back for more, or just stalking us from the shadows.
They include:
- Cookies (the crunchy browser kind, not the chocolate chip kind)
- Scripts, pixels, and local storage—fancy terms for tools that track your interaction with our site.
We call them all “Trackers,” because, honestly, who has time to say “cookie-like technologies” 47 times?
Why We Use ’Em
Because we care about your experience and our conversions. Simple as that.
Our Trackers help us:
- Keep the site running smoother than a fresh jar of salsa
- Personalise what you see and how you see it
- Track what’s working, what’s not, and where you dropped off (so we can fix it)
- Serve you spicy content, not lukewarm leftovers
No creepy business. Just high-functioning pixels doing their job.
Your Consent = Your Call
The first time you hit our site, we ask you to opt in or out of the cookie fiesta.
And don’t worry—you can change your mind anytime. Like… any time.
Just hit the cookie settings in our footer, or holler at us at privacy@blabb.studio, and we’ll wipe the digital slate clean.
🔥 2. Types of Trackers We Use
Not all cookies are baked the same. Here’s the lowdown on what’s in our tech pantry:
First-party vs. Third-party: Who’s Cookin’?
- First-party Trackers: Set and managed by us (Blabb). They’re here to make your experience smoother and sassier—like saving your preferences or remembering your login.
- Third-party Trackers: These are the +1s we invite to the party—tools from our partners (think Google, YouTube, etc.). They help with maps, videos, analytics, and more. We don’t always control their full recipe, but we vet ’em hard.
Technical / Essential Cookies
These are your ride-or-die cookies.
Without them, the site would glitch harder than a frozen margarita machine in July.
They:
- Keep you logged in
- Save cookie preferences
- Power basic site functionality
You can’t turn these off unless you love chaos.
Experience-Enhancing Trackers
Think of these as the guac on your burrito—not required, but definitely better with them.
They help:
- Load videos and interactive maps
- Let you engage with embedded content
- Keep things smooth and personalised
Rejecting these might make things feel a little... dry.
Analytics & Performance Cookies
These cookies don’t sleep. They’re constantly crunching numbers to help us improve.
They track:
- What pages you visit
- How long you stick around
- What buttons you smash or ignore
Helps us figure out what’s hot and what’s not—so we can serve you better stuff.
💼 3. Trackers in Action (With Examples)
You’ve met the trackers. Now see them in their natural habitat, doing what they do best:
Tag Management Tools
Example: Google Tag Manager
These are the digital DJs behind the scenes—spinning scripts, managing tags, and making sure everything runs in sync.
They:
- Load the right scripts at the right time
- Help us keep tracking smooth, organised, and up-to-date
- Don’t collect personal info themselves, but play nicely with tools that do
Embedded Content
Example: Google Maps, YouTube widgets
These widgets let you interact with outside tools without leaving our site.
Like when you see a map or video directly on our page? That’s a tracker-enabled dance.
They:
- Pull in media from other platforms
- Might track you even if you don’t click (thanks, algorithms)
- Boost UX but come with their own cookie baggage
Analytics
Example: Google Analytics 4
These are our data chefs. They whip up reports on how you use the site—no names, just vibes.
They:
- Measure page visits, clicks, bounce rates
- Use anonymised IPs to keep it chill
- Help us optimise what’s working and toss what’s not
We don’t share your identity—we just want to know what’s hot and what flops.
⚙️ 4. Managing Your Preferences
We believe in spicy design and spicy consent.
You call the shots. Here’s how:
Your Consent, Your Rules
The first time you swing by Blabb’s site, you’ll get a sweet little pop-up asking what you’re cool with.
Like a digital handshake—with options.
From there, you can:
- Accept all cookies and party with us
- Decline the extras and keep it strictly business
- Choose your own adventure with category-level controls
Opting Out of Third-Party Tracking
Wanna ghost our data partners? You can.
Each third-party tool we use (like Google Analytics) offers their own opt-out settings. You’ll find direct links in our full cookie policy, or just hit up their privacy pages.
We can’t control how they handle data, but we make it easy for you to tell them “no thanks.”
Got Questions or Just Feeling Curious?
If something in this cookie stew feels off, unclear, or too nerdy—drop us a line.
We’re always down to explain things in plain, spicy terms.

🧽 5. How to Clean Up Your Cookies
Sometimes you just need to start fresh. Whether you're tidying up or cutting ties, here’s how to Marie Kondo your browser:
Clean Up via Browser Settings
Every browser is a little different, but most let you:
- See what cookies are hanging out on your device
- Block new cookies from being set
- Delete the old ones with a single click
- Set custom preferences for specific websites
Here’s where to go depending on your flavour:
Heads-up: Deleting cookies might log you out, reset site preferences, and remove all that juicy personalisation we lovingly built for you. Worth it? Your call.
Controlling Tracking in Mobile Apps
Mobile’s got its own vibe. Want to stop trackers in your apps?
Try this:
- Go to your device settings
- Look for Privacy or Tracking
- Disable ad personalisation or tracking permissions
Simple. Clean. Done.
🚫 6. What Happens If You Block Trackers?
Look, we get it. Not everyone wants to be tracked. You're the main character, and privacy is your plot twist.
But just so you know—blocking trackers does come with trade-offs.
What You Might Lose:
- Saved preferences? Gone. Back to square one every visit.
- Login sessions? You’ll be typing in your password like it’s 2008.
- Embedded content? Might not load at all (hello, blank maps and ghosted YouTube vids).
- UX polish? Some pages might act weird, slow down, or look a little broken.
We’ve built our site to work with or without cookies, but if you block all the good stuff, it’s kinda like ordering tacos with no toppings.
Your experience, your choice—but don’t say Blabbio didn’t warn you. 🌶️😉
🕵️ 7. Who’s Responsible for Your Data?
When it comes to tracking tech, data collection, and privacy, we own our side of the salsa. But we’ve also got third-party amigos in the mix—so here’s how it all shakes out:
Blabb Studio = The Data Boss
We’re the ones running this site, setting most of the cookies, and choosing the tools that do the tracking. Legally speaking, we’re your Data Controller.
Questions? Concerns? Love notes?
privacy@blabb.studio
We’re happy to explain things or delete your data like it never existed.
Third-Party Tools = Their Own Thing
Some of the tools we use (like Google Analytics or embedded content platforms) set their own trackers and collect data independently.
We don’t control:
- How they process your data
- How long they store it
- What they do with it after you leave our site
Want the full scoop? Check their privacy policies directly—we always link to them in this doc.
📖 8. Definitions for the Curious (and the Lawyers)

A third-party we work with (like Google) who processes your data on our behalf—but under our rules.
