Cookie Policy

The cookies and similar technologies we use on summitbadminton.com, and how you can control them.

Last updated: [DATE LAST REVIEWED] · Version: draft for review

Draft — not yet legally reviewed. This Cookie Policy is a good-faith working draft. It has not been reviewed by a qualified legal professional and must not be relied upon until it has been. The exact cookie names, durations and any analytics/consent-banner requirements must be confirmed by the operator. Items in [SQUARE BRACKETS] are placeholders to complete.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies (such as local storage and service-worker caches) work in comparable ways. We use them to keep you signed in, to remember preferences, and to make the Platform work reliably.

2. The cookies we use

Strictly necessary

Session / authentication cookie — keeps you signed in securely as you move between pages. The Platform cannot function without it, so it is not subject to consent.
Security tokens — used to protect forms and sign-in [CONFIRM CSRF / SECURITY COOKIE NAMES].

Functional

Web-push subscription — if you opt in to push notifications, your browser stores a subscription so we can deliver alerts (e.g. new messages). You can revoke this in your browser/site settings at any time.
Service-worker cache (PWA) — stores parts of the app shell on your device so the installed app loads quickly and works offline. This is local storage on your device, not a tracking cookie.

Analytics / marketing

We currently [do / do not] use analytics or marketing cookies. [IF USED: list provider(s), purpose, duration, and the consent mechanism — a consent banner is required before non-essential cookies are set.]

3. Third-party services

Some pages load resources from third parties (for example, fonts and the Bootstrap/Bootstrap Icons libraries from a CDN, and images from Cloudinary). These providers may set their own cookies or log requests under their own policies. See our Privacy Policy for the processors we use (Render, Resend, Cloudinary, web-push and our AI provider).

4. Managing cookies

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings, and you can disable push notifications via your browser or operating system. Blocking the strictly-necessary session cookie will prevent you from signing in. [IF A CONSENT BANNER IS USED, describe how to change your choices here.]

5. Changes & contact

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Questions: info@summitbadminton.com.
