Similar technologies — including pixels, local storage objects, and session storage — work in a comparable way and are referred to collectively as "cookies" throughout this Policy.
This Website, https://giovanni-becagli1234.stoodio.io, is operated by Giovanni Becagli1234 and powered by Stoodio (STOODIO LTD). Both Giovanni Becagli1234 and Stoodio may set cookies on this Website, as described in Section 4.

For visitors accessing this Website from the European Economic Area, the EU ePrivacy Directive (2002/58/EC) as implemented in the relevant member state also applies.
Under these laws, we are required to obtain your consent before placing any cookies on your device that are not strictly necessary for the Website to function. We do this via the cookie consent banner displayed when you first visit the Website.
3. Categories of Cookies We Use
3.1 Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are essential for the Website to operate and cannot be switched off. They do not require your consent. They are typically set in response to actions you take, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in a form.
- Without these cookies, the Website cannot function correctly.
- They do not store any personally identifiable information beyond what is strictly required for the session.

These cookies collect information about how visitors use the Website — for example, which pages are visited most often, how long visitors spend viewing individual artworks, and how visitors arrived at the Website. This information is used to improve the Website and to generate the performance insights available to Giovanni Becagli1234 via the Stoodio dashboard.
These cookies are also used by Stoodio, in its capacity as an independent data controller, to generate platform-wide analytics and market intelligence, as described in Section 9 of the Privacy Policy. Stoodio's use of this data is governed by Stoodio's own privacy policy at stoodio.io/privacy.

3.3 Functional cookies
These cookies allow the Website to remember choices you make (such as your cookie consent preferences) and provide enhanced, more personal features. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to the Website.

- Accept all cookies (strictly necessary, analytics, functional, and marketing where applicable).
