AstralnautStudios.com uses cookies, local storage, session storage, and similar technologies. Necessary technologies support sign-in, security, carts, checkout, load balancing, consent choices, and account features. Functional technologies remember non-essential preferences such as your language and whether you disabled non-essential animations. Analytics technologies (first-party only) measure use and performance and load only after you consent. Marketing technologies would enable advertising or cross-site tracking — none are currently deployed; the category exists so any future addition must pass the same consent gate before it can run.

Your controls
Necessary technologies cannot be disabled through the preference center because the Service cannot function without them. Functional, analytics, and marketing categories are opt-in and can be changed or withdrawn at any time. Withdrawal takes effect immediately: category cookies are removed where feasible and the associated scripts are unloaded. We honor the Global Privacy Control (Sec-GPC) browser signal — when present we automatically treat analytics and marketing as opted out and record that the choice was derived from GPC.
