Cookie Policy
Last Updated: February 2025
We use tracking technologies on flowportalcom.com to make your browsing experience better. This policy explains what these technologies do, why we use them, and how you can manage them. We're based in Busan, serving clients across South Korea and internationally with mobile app UX/UI design services.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device. They help sites remember things about your visit — like your preferences or which pages you looked at. Most modern websites use them because they make the web work more smoothly.
Think of cookies as digital sticky notes. When you visit our site, we might leave a note on your browser saying "this person prefers dark mode" or "they were looking at our portfolio." Next time you come back, we can read those notes and adjust accordingly.
Types of Tracking We Use
We categorize our tracking technologies into four main types. Each serves a different purpose in how our website functions and improves.
Essential Cookies
These keep the site working. Without them, basic features won't function properly. They handle things like security, load balancing, and keeping you logged in as you move between pages.
What They Do:
Session management, security tokens, form submissions, and basic site navigation. You can't really turn these off without breaking the site.
Functional Cookies
These remember your choices and preferences. They're not strictly necessary, but they make your experience much better by personalizing how the site works for you.
What They Do:
Language preferences, display settings, previously viewed projects, and customized interface options you've selected during past visits.
Analytical Cookies
These help us understand how people use our site. We look at which pages get visited most, where people spend time, and what content resonates with our audience.
What They Do:
Track page views, measure time on site, identify popular content, monitor traffic sources, and help us improve our design portfolio presentation.
Marketing Cookies
These track your activity across different sites to build a profile of your interests. They help us show you relevant content and measure how effective our outreach is.
What They Do:
Remember which services you viewed, track interaction with our content, and help us understand which marketing channels bring visitors to our site.
How We Actually Use These
Let's get specific. When you visit flowportalcom.com, here's what happens behind the scenes:
- Your browser settings get remembered so you don't have to reset preferences every visit
- We track which portfolio pieces get the most attention to understand what resonates
- Contact form data gets temporarily stored so you don't lose information if something goes wrong
- We measure how long people spend reading our case studies to improve content
- Navigation patterns help us redesign confusing page layouts
Managing Your Preferences
You have control over which cookies you accept. Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through their settings menu. Keep in mind that blocking essential cookies might break some site functionality.

Data Retention
Different cookies stick around for different lengths of time. Session cookies disappear when you close your browser. Persistent cookies can last anywhere from a few days to a couple of years, depending on their purpose.
| Cookie Type | Duration | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Session | Until browser closes | Maintain active session |
| Preference | 1 year | Remember settings |
| Analytics | 2 years | Track usage patterns |
| Marketing | 90 days | Campaign tracking |
Third-Party Services
Some cookies come from external services we use. Analytics platforms, hosting providers, and content delivery networks might place their own tracking technologies. We only work with services that respect user privacy and comply with data protection standards.
We regularly review which third-party services we use and remove any that don't meet our standards. If you have questions about a specific service, reach out to us directly.
Updates to This Policy
Technology changes. Privacy standards evolve. We update this policy when we need to reflect those changes. The date at the top shows when we last revised it.
Major changes get announced through our site, but you should check back periodically if you want to stay informed about how we handle tracking.
