1. Cookies and similar technologies
Cookies are small pieces of information stored or read by the browser. Technologies such as localStorage can serve similar purposes. Rules distinguish technical tools required for requested functionality from non-technical tools used for analytics, profiling or marketing.
2. Technical tools currently used
| Name | Purpose | Indicative duration |
|---|---|---|
sais_session | Technical HttpOnly cookie maintaining the customer authenticated session. | Up to 14 days |
sais_admin | Technical HttpOnly cookie maintaining an admin session. | Up to 12 hours |
sportsocial_locale | Technical/preference cookie shared across SportSocial.ai subdomains, with supporting localStorage, remembering the chosen language. | Up to 12 months; localStorage remains until browser storage is cleared |
ss_cookie_consent_v1 | Technical cookie/localStorage shared across subdomains to record cookie choices and avoid unnecessary repeated prompts. | Up to 6 months before re-evaluation |
3. Optional analytics
Only after Analytics consent, SportSocial.ai uses first-party acquisition-funnel measurement. It records a pseudonymous visitor identifier, UTM source/medium/campaign, referrer domain, landing page and key funnel steps such as viewing or starting registration. No Analytics events are sent when Analytics is refused. Optional marketing tools are not enabled in the current configuration.
4. Optional-tool controls
Non-technical tools remain disabled by default. The consent interface supports accepting, rejecting or customising optional purposes, and Analytics does not send events before the relevant choice.
5. Change your choices
You can revisit cookie choices at any time through “Cookie preferences” in the footer. Withdrawal applies prospectively.
6. Browser controls
You can also delete cookies and local storage through browser settings. Disabling technical session cookies can prevent access to authenticated areas.
