Note: This Cookie Policy covers the tracking technologies currently in use on botriders.com. When a cookie consent mechanism is implemented (recommended before live payment activation), this policy must be linked to and surfaced in the consent banner. Placeholder values in [BRACKETS] need owner confirmation.
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites work, remember your preferences, and provide information to website owners.
Similar technologies — such as pixel tags, web beacons, and local storage — work in a similar way and are covered by this policy.
These cookies are required for the website to function. They cannot be disabled in our systems, and no consent is required to set them.

Google Analytics data is processed by Google LLC (USA). Google applies Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) for data transfers from the EU/EEA to the USA. For more information, see Google's Privacy Policy.
We have configured Google Analytics with IP anonymisation enabled to reduce the identifiability of traffic data.
We do not currently use functionality cookies beyond the essential cookies listed above. If this changes, this policy will be updated.
We do not currently use marketing or advertising cookies.
You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Instructions for common browsers:
Disabling essential cookies may prevent some features of the website from working correctly.
You can prevent Google Analytics from collecting your data by installing the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on.
We do not currently use Facebook Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag, or other third-party advertising pixels. If we add these in the future, we will update this policy and request your consent as required.
For visitors from the EU/EEA, we are required to obtain your consent before setting analytics cookies. We are implementing a cookie consent banner to meet this requirement.
Until the consent banner is implemented, please use the browser opt-out tools above if you do not wish analytics cookies to be set.
We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in our use of tracking technologies or applicable law. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date.
