Cookie Policy

Last updated: 23 September 2026

We use a small number of cookies — no third-party advertising or tracking cookies. Here is exactly what each one does.

1. Session cookie

Keeps you signed in as you move between pages. Expires when your browser session ends or after a period of inactivity. Strictly necessary — the site cannot function without it.

2. CSRF token cookie

A security cookie that protects forms (registration, profile updates, payments) from being submitted by malicious third-party sites on your behalf. Strictly necessary.

3. Referral code cookie

If you arrive via a member's referral link (a URL containing ?ref=CODE), we set a cookie remembering that code for 90 days, so it's still applied automatically if you come back later to finish signing up. If a referral cookie is already set, a new referral link you visit will not overwrite it — the first link you followed is the one that counts. You can clear this at any time by clearing your browser's cookies for this site, or by manually removing the referral code shown on the registration form before submitting it.

4. Remember me cookie

Set only if you tick "Remember me" at login, so you stay signed in across browser restarts. You can remove it by logging out.

5. Controlling cookies

Every modern browser lets you view, delete, or block cookies from its settings. Blocking the strictly necessary cookies above will prevent you from signing in.
