Cookies Policy

1. Websites covered by this policy

This policy applies to East-Iron Golf websites and app pages, including:

• golf-tracker.co.uk
• golf.east-iron.com
• any related East-Iron Golf domains or subdomains we may use in future.

This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

2. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites work properly, remember choices, keep users logged in, understand how the site is used, and improve the user experience.

Similar technologies may include local storage, session storage, pixels, tags, scripts, and analytics tools.

3. How we use cookies

Strictly necessary cookies

These are needed for the website and logged-in app to work properly. For example, they help keep you logged in, maintain your session, protect the service, remember essential choices, and enable core app functionality.

Analytics cookies

These help us understand how visitors use the website and app, such as which pages are visited and how users move around the service. We use this information to improve East-Iron Golf.

Preference cookies

These may be used to remember choices you make, such as display preferences, cookie settings, or app preferences.

Marketing cookies

We may use marketing cookies or pixels in future to understand the effectiveness of our marketing or to show relevant adverts. These will only be used where we have the appropriate consent.

Embedded content and third-party services

Some pages may include content or services from third parties, such as analytics tools, video providers, payment providers, support tools, or embedded content. These third parties may set their own cookies or similar technologies.

4. Cookies we currently use

5. Strictly necessary cookies

Strictly necessary cookies are required for the website or app to function. These may include cookies used for:

• logging in and staying logged in;
• account security;
• session management;
• fraud prevention;
• remembering cookie choices;
• loading the app correctly;
• protecting forms and requests from misuse.

You cannot disable strictly necessary cookies through our cookie controls because the service may not work properly without them. You may be able to block them using your browser settings, but some parts of the website or app may stop working.

6. Analytics cookies

We use Google Analytics to understand how people use East-Iron Golf. This helps us improve the website, app, product features, user experience, and performance.

Analytics cookies may tell us things like:

• which pages are visited;
• how users move through the site;
• which features are being used;
• whether pages are working correctly;
• general device, browser, and approximate location information.

We do not use analytics cookies to directly identify you by name. Where required, analytics cookies will only be used with your consent.

7. Marketing and advertising cookies

We do not currently list any marketing or advertising cookies in the table above.

In future, we may use tools such as advertising pixels, conversion tracking, or remarketing tags from providers such as Google, Meta, TikTok, or similar platforms. These tools may help us understand whether our marketing is effective or show relevant adverts.

If we add these technologies, we will update this Cookies Policy and, where required, ask for your consent before using them.

8. Local storage and similar technologies

The East-Iron Golf app may also use browser storage technologies such as local storage or session storage. These can help the app remember temporary information, improve performance, or support logged-in functionality.

Examples may include:

• remembering app interface choices;
• storing temporary session information;
• supporting dashboard filters;
• improving page loading;
• remembering cookie preferences.

Where browser storage is used for non-essential analytics, marketing, or tracking, we will treat it in the same way as cookies and request consent where required.

9. Third-party services

We may use third-party services to help operate, measure, improve, or support East-Iron Golf. These may include:

• Google Analytics;
• Google Tag Manager;
• website hosting providers;
• payment providers;
• email providers;
• customer support tools;
• embedded media providers;
• advertising or marketing platforms.

These providers may set their own cookies or use similar technologies. Where this happens, their use of cookies is governed by their own policies as well as our use of their services.

10. Managing your cookie choices

You can manage cookies in the following ways:

• Cookie banner or cookie settings: where available, you can use our cookie banner or cookie settings page to accept, reject, or change your choices for optional cookies.
• Browser settings: most browsers allow you to block, delete, or restrict cookies.
• Google Analytics controls: Google provides tools and browser add-ons that allow users to opt out of Google Analytics tracking.

If you disable some cookies, parts of the website or logged-in app may not work as expected.

11. Changes to this Cookies Policy

We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time, especially if we add new features, analytics tools, marketing tools, app functionality, or third-party services.

When we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date above and, where required, ask you to review or renew your cookie choices.
