Cookie Policy

Last updated: 6 June 2026 · Version 1.0

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar technologies SportSweeps uses, why we use them, and how you can control them. Read together with our Privacy Policy.

1. What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small text file stored on your device by your browser when you visit a website. Some cookies are required for the site to function, others are optional and used for analytics or marketing. Similar technologies include localStorage, sessionStorage and pixels - we treat them under the same rules.

2. How we categorise cookies

Strictly necessary - always on. Without these, signing in or paying would not work. No consent required under GDPR / ePrivacy.
Analytics - optional. Help us understand product usage in aggregate. Off by default.
Marketing - optional. Currently not in use by SportSweeps. Off by default.
