2. What are cookies?
Cookies are small pieces of information stored on your computer, smartphone, tablet or other device when you visit a website.
They can be used for purposes such as:
keeping a website secure;
enabling important website functions;
remembering preferences;
helping pages load and operate correctly;
understanding how visitors use a website; and
supporting analytics or other services.
The rules also apply to other technologies that store information on, or access information from, your device. These can include browser storage, scripts, tags, tracking pixels and similar technologies.
In this policy, we use the term “cookies” to refer collectively to cookies and similar storage or access technologies where appropriate.
3. How we use cookies
Mastered by Design uses cookies primarily to:
operate and secure the website;
maintain website stability and performance;
protect against fraud, attacks and misuse;
remember relevant privacy or cookie preferences;
understand website usage and performance where permitted; and
support services and functionality provided through Wix.
Our website is built and hosted using Wix.
Wix places certain essential cookies and similar technologies that are required for the website and Wix platform to function securely and reliably.
Depending on the services and integrations enabled on the website, other cookies may also be available for analytics, functional or other purposes.
4. Essential cookies
Essential cookies are used where they are necessary for the website to function, remain secure or provide a service you have requested.
These cookies do not require consent where an applicable exemption under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations applies.
Wix currently identifies core platform cookies including:
Cookie | Purpose | Typical duration |
XSRF-TOKEN | Helps detect fraudulent or unauthorised requests | Session |
hs | Legacy Wix security cookie | Session |
svSession | Security, stability and core website functionality | 12 months |
SSR-caching | Supports website rendering and performance | 24 hours |
TS* | Helps detect attacks and protect the website | Session |
bSession | Used to measure Wix system effectiveness | 24 hours |
fedops.logger.sessionId | Helps identify session errors and platform resilience issues | 12 months |
_wixAB3|* | Used by Wix for platform/site experiments | 6 months |
server-session-bind | API protection | Session |
client-session-bind | API protection | Session |
oAuthState | Session identification where relevant | Session |
wixSession | Security, stability and core website functionality | 12 months |
sec-fetch-unsupported | Identifies browser limitations relevant to website security features | Session |
The precise cookies used during an individual visit may depend on Wix functionality and may change as Wix updates its platform.
We will verify this list against the live website after launch.
5. Analytics cookies
We may use analytics technologies to understand how visitors use the Mastered by Design website.
Analytics can help us understand:
which pages are visited;
how visitors move around the website;
which content is most useful;
general device and browser information;
approximate traffic sources; and
how the website can be improved.
The website may use Wix Analytics for this purpose.
Where consent is required for analytics technologies, they will not be intentionally activated until you have allowed the relevant category through the website's cookie controls.
We do not currently use analytics information to make significant decisions about individual visitors.
6. Functional cookies
Functional technologies may be used to provide features or remember preferences that improve the way the website operates.
Where a functional technology is not strictly necessary and does not fall within another applicable exemption, it will be controlled in accordance with the website's cookie-consent settings.
At present, Mastered by Design does not intentionally use unnecessary third-party functionality that tracks visitors for unrelated purposes.
7. Marketing and advertising cookies
Mastered by Design does not currently intentionally use behavioural advertising technologies or advertising trackers such as Meta Pixel for targeted advertising.
If marketing or advertising technologies are introduced in future, this Cookie Policy and the website's consent configuration will be reviewed and updated.
Advertising technologies that require consent will not be intentionally activated before the required consent has been obtained.
8. Custom-coded website features
Parts of the Mastered by Design website use bespoke HTML, CSS, JavaScript and WebGL-based visual components.
These components are primarily used to provide the site's design, animation and interactive experience.
Custom code does not automatically mean that tracking takes place.
If any custom component stores information on your device or accesses information already stored there, it falls within the same cookie and storage-access rules described in this policy.
We will review the live website after launch to confirm whether any custom-coded component uses browser storage or similar technologies that require additional disclosure.
9. Cookie consent and your choices
The website uses Wix's privacy and cookie-consent functionality to provide information about cookies and allow you to control non-essential categories where required.
When you first visit the website, you may be asked to make choices about the use of non-essential cookies.
Depending on the configuration available, you may be able to:
accept available cookie categories;
reject non-essential cookies;
enable or disable particular categories; and
change your preferences later.
Your choices may be recorded so that the website can respect them on future visits.
10. Changing or withdrawing your choices
You can change your cookie choices using the Cookie Settings / Privacy Settings control provided on the website.
Where processing relies on consent, withdrawing your consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing that took place before you withdrew it.
If we make significant changes to the cookies or similar technologies we use, we may ask visitors to make their choices again.
11. Cookies and statistical purposes
UK law allows certain storage and access technologies to be used without prior consent where their sole purpose is to collect statistical information about how a website or online service is used so that it can be improved, provided the applicable legal conditions are satisfied.
Where this exemption is relied upon, visitors must be given clear information and a simple and free means of objecting.
Mastered by Design will only rely on this exemption where the technology and its use genuinely satisfy the applicable legal requirements.
Otherwise, analytics or similar non-essential technologies will remain subject to the website's consent controls.
12. Third-party services
Some website functions are provided or supported by third-party service providers.
Our principal website platform provider is Wix.
A third-party service may place or access its own cookies when the relevant functionality is used and where legally permitted.
The precise cookie set can depend on:
which website features are enabled;
which third-party integrations are installed;
the visitor's cookie choices;
browser and device behaviour; and
changes made by the relevant service provider.
We therefore review the website periodically to identify cookies and similar technologies currently in use.
Where a third party processes personal information, further information is provided in our Privacy Policy.
13. Managing cookies through your browser
Most web browsers allow you to view, delete or block cookies through their settings.
You can generally configure your browser to:
delete stored cookies;
block particular cookies;
block third-party cookies;
block all cookies;
clear cookies when the browser closes; or
notify you when websites attempt to store cookies.
Blocking essential cookies may cause parts of the website to stop working correctly.
Browser settings are separate from the cookie choices provided through the Mastered by Design website.
14. How long cookies remain on your device
Some cookies are session cookies and are deleted when you close your browser.
Others are persistent cookies and remain for a defined period unless you delete them earlier.
The duration depends on the particular cookie.
The typical durations for Wix's currently identified core essential cookies are shown in section 4.
Other cookies and technologies are retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for their stated purposes and in accordance with the settings of the relevant provider.
15. Post-launch cookie verification
Because this policy is being prepared before the Mastered by Design website is publicly launched, the site's final live cookie behaviour will be checked after publication.
The live review will include, where practical:
cookies present before consent;
cookies present after consent;
Wix Analytics behaviour;
third-party scripts or integrations;
browser storage used by custom-coded components; and
the effectiveness of the site's cookie-consent controls.
If the live website uses cookies or similar technologies that are not accurately described in this policy, the policy will be updated accordingly.
16. Changes to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time, including where:
website functionality changes;
new integrations are introduced;
cookies or similar technologies change;
analytics arrangements change;
a service provider changes its technologies; or
legal or regulatory requirements change.
The Last updated date at the top of this page will indicate when this policy was most recently revised.
Where a significant change affects choices previously made by visitors, we may request updated cookie preferences.
