This page explains how Scarlett Media Lab uses cookies and similar browser storage on scarlettmedialab.com.
At the moment, we do not use analytics cookies, advertising cookies, retargeting pixels, or social media tracking cookies. The cookie consent system exists so that non-essential features can be controlled properly, including if analytics are added in the future.
// 01. HOW CONSENT WORKS
On your first visit, our cookie panel lets you accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or manage individual categories.
Your consent choice is stored in your browser so the site can remember your preference. We do not currently use it to create a server-side consent record. You can change your choice at any time using Cookie settings in the site footer.
Policy version: 2026-06-03. If we make material changes
to what we store or how cookie categories work, we may ask you to confirm your choices again.
// 02. COOKIE CATEGORIES

Analytics cookies are optional and off by default. Scarlett Media Lab does not currently use analytics cookies.
Marketing cookies are optional and off by default. Scarlett Media Lab does not currently use marketing, advertising, retargeting, or social media tracking cookies.
