Last updated March 20, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Bold and Code, Inc. ("Company," "we," "us," and "our") uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit the website at https://www.patentia.online ("Website"). It explains what these technologies are and why they are used, as well as your rights to control their use.
In some cases cookies may be used to collect personal information, or information that becomes personal information if combined with other information.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners in order to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.
Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Bold and Code, Inc.) are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., advertising, interactive content, and analytics). The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.
Why Are Cookies Used?
First- and third-party cookies are used for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for the Website to operate, and these are referred to as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. Other cookies enable tracking and targeting the interests of users to enhance the experience on the Website. Third parties serve cookies through the Website for advertising, analytics, and other purposes. This is described in more detail below.
How Can I Control Cookies?
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie rights by setting your preferences in the Cookie Consent Manager. The Cookie Consent Manager allows you to select which categories of cookies you accept or reject. Essential cookies cannot be rejected as they are strictly necessary to provide you with services.
The Cookie Consent Manager can be found in the notification banner and on the Website. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use the Website though your access to some functionality and areas of the Website may be restricted. You may also set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies.

What About Other Tracking Technologies, Like Web Beacons?
Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. Other similar technologies may be used from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called "tracking pixels" or "clear gifs"). These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enables recognition when someone has visited the Website or opened an email including them. This allows, for example, monitoring the traffic patterns of users from one page within a website to another, delivering or communicating with cookies, understanding whether you have come to the website from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, improving site performance, and measuring the success of email marketing campaigns. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and so declining cookies will impair their functioning.
Do You Serve Targeted Advertising?
Third parties may serve cookies on your computer or mobile device to serve advertising through the Website. These companies may use information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services that you may be interested in. They may also employ technology that is used to measure the effectiveness of advertisements. They can accomplish this by using cookies or web beacons to collect information about your visits to this and other sites in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services of potential interest to you. The information collected through this process does not enable them to identify your name, contact details, or other details that directly identify you unless you choose to provide these.
How Often Will This Cookie Policy Be Updated?
This Cookie Policy may be updated from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies used or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Please revisit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about the use of cookies and related technologies.
The date at the top of this Cookie Policy indicates when it was last updated.
