Cookie Policy

As stated in our Privacy Policy, a cookie is a piece of data contained in a very small text file that is stored in your browser or elsewhere on your hard drive. Cookies allow Unsplash to identify your device as you navigate our website or your account. This makes navigating and interacting with our website or your account more efficient, easy and meaningful for you.

By themselves, cookies do not identify you specifically. Rather, they recognize your web browser. So, unless you identify yourself specifically to Unsplash, like signing into your account, we won’t know who you are just because you visited our website.

Do not track

Some browsers allow a “do not track” (DNT) setting that requests that a web application disable its tracking of an individual user. When you choose to turn on the DNT setting in your browser, your browser will send a special signal to websites, analytics companies, ad networks, plug-in providers, and other web services you encounter while browsing to stop tracking your activity. To set up DNT, you can visit the All About DNT page. If you do choose to set up DNT, please note that it could impact the functionality of our website.

Disabling a cookie or category of cookie does not delete the cookie from your browser, you will need to do this yourself from within your browser, you should visit your browser's help menu for more information.
