This policy explains how MOAT Studio ("we", "us") uses cookies and similar technologies on moat.mov. By using the site you can choose whether to allow optional cookies through the consent banner.

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. They let a website remember your actions and preferences, and help us understand how the site is used. Some are essential; others are optional and only set with your consent.

Categories we use

Strictly necessary — required for the site to function and to remember your cookie choice. Always on.
Analytics — help us measure traffic and improve the site. Loaded only after you click "Accept".

Managing cookies

You choose analytics on or off via the banner on your first visit. To change your choice, clear this site's data in your browser (which removes the saved preference) and reload — the banner will appear again.

You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time. Blocking strictly necessary items may affect how the site works.
