This Cookie Policy explains how gainARK ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on gainark.com (the "Site"). This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function properly, work more efficiently, and provide information to site owners. Similar technologies include pixels, web beacons, and local storage, which we refer to collectively as "cookies" in this policy unless otherwise specified.
2. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies for the following purposes:
2.1 Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are essential for the Site to function and cannot be switched off. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as logging into the admin panel or setting your cookie preferences. They do not store any personally identifiable information beyond what is required for the Site to operate.
Examples on this Site:
- Session cookies that keep you logged in to the admin panel (set via Supabase Auth)
- A cookie consent preference cookie that remembers your choice so we don't ask again on every visit
2.2 Analytics cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the Site by collecting and reporting information anonymously or pseudonymously, such as which pages are visited most often and how long visitors stay.
Where enabled, we use:
- Google Analytics 4: collects usage data such as pages viewed, session duration, traffic source, and general device/browser information
- Google Tag Manager: a tag management system that may load Google Analytics or other measurement tags; it does not itself set tracking cookies but manages the deployment of tags that do
These tools may set cookies that persist for varying periods, typically up to 26 months, depending on the tool's default configuration.
2.3 Functionality cookies
These cookies allow the Site to remember choices you make, such as a preference, to provide enhanced, more personalized features. We currently use minimal functionality cookies beyond the cookie consent preference noted above.
2.4 Marketing and advertising cookies
We do not currently run third-party advertising or retargeting pixels on this Site. If this changes in the future, this policy will be updated accordingly, and consent will be requested in line with applicable law before any such cookies are set.
3. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on the Site are placed by third-party services we use, including:
| Service | Purpose | Provider Privacy Policy |
|---|---|---|
| Google Analytics | Website usage analytics | policies.google.com/privacy |
| Google Tag Manager | Tag management (no direct tracking itself) | policies.google.com/privacy |
| Supabase | Admin authentication session | supabase.com/privacy |
We do not control these third parties' cookies directly. We encourage you to review their respective privacy and cookie policies for full detail on their data practices.
4. Your Cookie Choices
4.1 Cookie consent banner
When you first visit the Site, you will see a cookie banner allowing you to accept our use of non-essential cookies. Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent, as they are required for the Site to function.
4.2 Browser controls
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings, including blocking cookies entirely, deleting existing cookies, or being notified when a cookie is set. Refer to your browser's help documentation for instructions:
- Chrome: chrome://settings/cookies
- Firefox: about:preferences#privacy
- Safari: Preferences > Privacy
- Edge: edge://settings/privacy
Note that blocking or deleting cookies may affect the functionality of certain parts of the Site, including the admin panel.
4.3 Google Analytics opt-out
You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking across all websites by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
4.4 Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" signal. There is currently no industry-standard approach to responding to such signals, and the Site does not currently alter its behavior based on Do Not Track signals. We rely instead on the cookie consent mechanism described above.
5. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies and technologies we use, or for legal or regulatory reasons. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.
