1. About This Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Ember and Motion uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit the website.

Ember and Motion is operated by Mr. Noire Co.

Cookies and similar technologies can be used to make a website function, remember preferences, support security, measure website usage and understand how visitors interact with the site.

UK rules require websites to provide clear information about cookies and similar technologies. Where consent is required, non-essential cookies should not be placed before that consent has been given.

2. What Cookies Are

Cookies are small text files stored on a device when a website is visited.

They can help a website recognise a device, remember preferences, maintain functionality and collect information about how the website is used.

Similar technologies may also be used to store or access information on a device, including pixels, local storage and related tracking technologies. UK rules can apply to these technologies in a similar way to cookies.

Strictly necessary functions

• Supporting website display or functionality preferences

Analytics

• Identifying which areas of the website are most useful

Third-party services

The exact cookies used may depend on the Squarespace features and third-party integrations enabled on the website.

4. Strictly Necessary Cookies

Some cookies are necessary for the website to function properly.

These may include cookies used for security, essential website operation, session management or services specifically requested by the visitor.

Under UK rules, consent is not generally required for technologies that are strictly necessary to provide a service requested by the user, although information about their use should still be provided.

5. Non-Essential Cookies

Non-essential cookies may include technologies used for:

• Analytics

• Measuring website usage

• Some third-party integrations

• Certain preference or functionality features

• Advertising or tracking, if introduced in the future

Where consent is required, these cookies should remain restricted until the visitor has made an appropriate choice through the cookie banner or preference controls.

6. Squarespace Cookies

The Ember and Motion website is built and hosted using Squarespace.

Squarespace may place cookies that support:

• Website functionality

• Security

• Analytics

• Visitor preferences

• Connected services and integrations

Some Squarespace cookies are necessary, while others may be non-essential depending on the feature involved.

Squarespace also notes that some third-party integrations may place their own cookies and may not always be fully controlled by Squarespace's cookie banner.

7. Analytics

The website may use Squarespace Analytics and, if enabled in future, other analytics services.

Analytics information may include:

• Pages visited

• Approximate visitor activity

• Referral information

• Device or browser information

• General website interaction data

Where analytics technologies require consent, they should not be activated until the visitor has made the appropriate choice. Squarespace provides controls to restrict some non-essential analytics cookies until consent is given.

8. Third-Party Services

The website may use or link to third-party services.

These may include services such as:

• Embedded video or media

• Google services

• Social platforms

• Payment providers

• Analytics providers

• Other integrations used to operate the website

These providers may use their own cookies or similar technologies.

Their use of information is governed by their own privacy and cookie policies.

9. Cookie Consent

When you first visit the website, you may be shown a cookie banner allowing you to:

• Accept cookies

• Decline non-essential cookies

• Manage cookie preferences

The available choices depend on the cookie settings configured on the site.

Squarespace supports cookie controls that can allow visitors to accept, decline or manage non-essential cookies.

10. Changing Your Cookie Preferences

You should be able to change or withdraw your consent as easily as you gave it.

Where the website provides a cookie preferences control, you can use it to review or update your choices.

You may also be able to manage cookies through your browser settings, including:

• Blocking cookies

• Deleting stored cookies

• Restricting third-party cookies

• Clearing cookies when the browser closes

The ICO provides guidance on browser-based cookie controls.

11. How Long Cookies Remain

Cookies may be:

Session cookies
These normally expire when the browser session ends.

Persistent cookies
These remain on the device for a defined period or until deleted.

The duration depends on the specific cookie and service involved.

Squarespace and third-party integrations may apply different retention periods to different cookies.

12. Changes to Cookie Use

If the website introduces new cookies, tracking technologies or purposes that materially change how visitor information is used, this Cookie Policy and the cookie consent settings should be reviewed and updated.

Where a new use requires consent, fresh consent may be needed.

13. Relationship With the Privacy Policy

This Cookie Policy should be read alongside the Ember and Motion Privacy Policy.

The Privacy Policy explains more broadly how personal information is collected, used, stored and protected.
