How we use cookies on Vasari
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device. They let a site remember things about your visit — like your preferences or how you navigate. Some cookies are essential to make a site work; others are used for analytics or marketing.
Cookies we use
We try to use as few cookies as possible. Our site is built on Squarespace, so most cookies below are set by Squarespace. The tables list them by category.
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are needed for the site to work properly. You can’t turn them off, and they don’t identify you personally.

Marketing cookies (only with your consent)
We don’t currently set any marketing cookies. If we add marketing tools in future, we’ll update this notice and only set them with your consent.
Your choices
When you first visit, our cookie banner asks whether you’re happy for us to set non-essential cookies. You can:
- Accept all — turn on every category.
- Reject non-essential — only strictly necessary cookies will be set.
- Manage preferences — choose which categories you accept.
You can change your choice at any time via the “Cookie settings” link in the footer, or block and delete cookies in your browser settings.
Third parties
Some cookies are set by third parties (for example, Squarespace or Google Analytics). Those providers are responsible for their own cookies — you can find Squarespace’s cookie reference in their help centre and Google’s in their privacy policy.
