Cookie Policy
GoodBetIQ and its partners · GoodBetIQ.com
Effective Date: 2026-08-05
This Cookie Policy explains how GoodBetIQ uses cookies and similar browser storage, what each one does, and how you can control them. It supplements our Privacy Policy.
1. What We Use
Cookies are small files stored by your browser. We also use browser local storage, which works in a similar way. We group them into four categories: strictly necessary, functional, analytics, and marketing.
Strictly necessary
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| sb-<project>-auth-token | GoodBetIQ (Supabase auth) | Keeps you signed in and authorises requests to your account data. | Local storage until sign-out |
| gbiq_consent_v1 | GoodBetIQ | Stores your cookie choices so we do not ask again. | Local storage, 12 months |
| __cf_bm / cf_clearance | Cloudflare | Bot detection, abuse prevention, and site security. | Session to 30 minutes |
| __stripe_mid / __stripe_sid | Stripe | Fraud prevention during checkout. Set only when you open a payment session. | 30 minutes to 12 months |
Functional
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| gbiq_prefs / odds-format keys | GoodBetIQ | Remembers preferences such as odds format (American or decimal), region, and recent selections. | Local storage until cleared |
| gbiq_ref | GoodBetIQ | Stores a partner referral code when you arrive through a referral link, so the referring partner can be credited if you sign up or subscribe. Contains a partner code only, no advertising identifiers. | Local storage, 90 days |
Analytics and advertising
None are currently active. GoodBetIQ does not run advertising or cross-context behavioural advertising cookies today. The only referral storage we use is the gbiq_ref entry listed above, which credits a partner for a sign-up and is not used to profile you or track you across other sites. If we add analytics or advertising, we will list them here and load them only after consent where consent is required.
2. Do You Have to Accept Cookies?
No. Strictly necessary cookies are required to sign in, take payment, and keep the site secure, so they cannot be switched off. Everything else is optional and the Service works without it.
In the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom we ask for your consent before setting any non-essential cookie, and you can reject all of them. In the United States, analytics and marketing stay off unless you opt in, and we honour the Global Privacy Control browser signal as an opt-out.
3. Managing Your Choices
You can change or withdraw consent at any time using the button below or the Cookie preferences link in the site footer. You can also clear the gbiq_consent_v1 entry in your browser's local storage, or block and delete cookies in your browser settings.
4. Changes and Contact
We update this policy whenever our cookie use changes and revise the effective date above.
