1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They're widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, and to provide information to the site's owners. Similar technologies, such as pixels, local storage, and fingerprinting, are used for comparable purposes; we refer to all of these collectively as "cookies" throughout this Policy.
2. How we use cookies
Digital Adventures (https://digitaladventures.com.au) uses cookies to:
- Make the site work correctly (for example, maintaining session state for the contact form)
- Remember preferences you have explicitly set
Where cookies collect personal information, we handle that information in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles. See our Privacy Policy for full detail.
2.1 Current cookie usage
The Services set strictly necessary cookies. These are required for the site to function, including remembering your cookie choice, and do not require your consent under Australian law.
We also use Microsoft Clarity, an analytics tool that shows us how visitors use the site (for example through heatmaps and session replay) so we can improve it. Clarity sets non-essential cookies. We load Clarity, and it sets those cookies, only after you accept through our cookie banner. If you reject, or have not yet made a choice, Clarity does not load and its cookies are not set.
We do not use marketing or advertising cookies.
3. Your cookie choices
3.1 How consent works
When you first visit the Services, we show a cookie banner. You can:
- Accept, which lets Microsoft Clarity load and set its analytics cookies
- Reject, which keeps Clarity and its cookies off
Strictly necessary cookies are always set, because the site cannot function without them, and do not require consent. We remember your choice in a da-consent cookie so we do not ask again on every visit.
To change your choice later, use the Cookie settings link in the site footer to reopen the banner. To remove cookies already stored on your device, including any set by Microsoft, clear cookies and site data through your browser (Section 3.2).
3.2 Browser controls
Most browsers let you see, block, or delete cookies directly in their settings. Blocking all cookies may affect the functionality of the Services.
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Safari: Settings → Privacy
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security
- Edge: Settings → Privacy, search and services
3.3 Opt-out tools
For specific advertising cookies:
- YourOnlineChoices Australia,
youronlinechoices.com.au(operated by the Australian Association of National Advertisers) - Digital Advertising Alliance,
optout.aboutads.info - Network Advertising Initiative,
networkadvertising.org/choices
3.4 Do Not Track
Some browsers send a "Do Not Track" signal. There is currently no industry standard for how sites should respond to this signal, and the Services do not change behaviour based on it. To control non-essential cookies, reject them in our cookie banner, or use your browser controls (Section 3.2) and the opt-out tools (Section 3.3).
4. Types of cookies we use
4.1 Strictly necessary (currently in use)
Required for the Services to function. You cannot opt out of these. On this site they are limited to:
- Preventing cross-site request forgery (CSRF) on the contact form
- Maintaining short-lived session state for the contact form submission
4.2 Performance and analytics (in use, with consent)
Help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. We use Microsoft Clarity for heatmaps and session replay. These cookies are set only after you accept them through our cookie banner. See Section 5 for the specific cookies and Section 6 for Microsoft's policies.
4.3 Functional (not currently set)
Remember preferences you have explicitly chosen, for example a preferred language. We do not currently use these on the Services.
4.4 Marketing and advertising (not currently set)
Help measure the performance of marketing and, where relevant, deliver more relevant content. Common examples include LinkedIn Insight Tag, Google Ads conversion tracking, and Meta Pixel. We do not currently use these on the Services. Any future addition will be disclosed here, will require your consent, and direct marketing sent as a result of data collected by such cookies will comply with the Spam Act 2003 (Cth) and include a clear unsubscribe mechanism in every message.

We do not control the cookies these third parties set. Please refer to their policies for details.

10. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or to comply with legal requirements. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. If a future change introduces non-essential cookies, we will show a cookie preferences banner and obtain consent before those cookies are set.
