Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how RigLoot (rigloot.com) uses cookies and similar technologies, what categories of cookies we set, which third parties are involved, and how you can control or withdraw your consent. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember your actions and preferences over time. We also use similar technologies such as local storage, pixels and software development kits (SDKs), which we refer to collectively as "cookies" in this policy. Cookies can be "first-party" (set by RigLoot) or "third-party" (set by our partners), and either "session" (deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent" (kept for a defined period).

2. Categories of cookies we use

We group the cookies on RigLoot into three categories:

• Strictly necessary cookies. These are required for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are used for core functionality such as page navigation, security, load balancing and remembering your cookie choices. These cookies do not require consent because the site cannot work without them.
• Analytics cookies. These help us understand how visitors interact with RigLoot by collecting information in aggregate — for example which pages are most popular and how visitors move through the site. We use this to improve our content and layout. Where required by law, these cookies are only set after you consent.
• Advertising cookies. These are set by us and by our advertising partners to display ads, to measure ad and affiliate performance, and to show you more relevant advertising based on your interests (personalised advertising). They may also limit how often you see an ad. Where required by law, these cookies are only set after you consent.

3. Third-party cookies

Because RigLoot is funded by display advertising and by affiliate and CPA offer links, some cookies are set by third parties rather than by us directly. These include:

• Analytics providers that measure traffic and audience behaviour.
• Advertising networks and exchanges that serve and measure display ads on our pages.
• Affiliate and CPA networks that set a tracking cookie when you click an offer link, so that a resulting action (such as a sign-up or purchase) can be attributed to RigLoot.

These third parties process data under their own privacy and cookie policies, over which we have no control. Key partners we work with include [Advertising / analytics / affiliate partners — TODO], and we recommend reviewing their policies:

• Google Privacy & Terms: policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
• Your Online Choices (EU ad preferences): youronlinechoices.eu
• Network Advertising Initiative (US opt-out): optout.networkadvertising.org
• Digital Advertising Alliance (US opt-out): optout.aboutads.info
• Additional partner policies: [Links to specific ad/affiliate partners — TODO]

4. How to manage or withdraw your consent

You are in control of non-essential cookies. You can manage your choices in the following ways:

• Our consent tool. When you first visit RigLoot you are presented with a cookie banner where you can accept or reject analytics and advertising cookies. You can reopen this tool at any time via the "Cookie settings" link in our footer to change or withdraw your consent.
• Browser settings. Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through their settings. Note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may stop parts of the site from working.
• Industry opt-outs. You can opt out of interest-based advertising from many partners using the industry tools listed in section 3 above.
• Global Privacy Control (GPC). Where supported, we honour recognised opt-out signals such as GPC for the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information.

Withdrawing consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before you withdrew it.

5. How long cookies last

The lifespan of a cookie depends on its type and purpose. Session cookies expire when you close your browser, while persistent cookies remain for a defined period, which can range from a few days to [maximum cookie duration — TODO] depending on the provider. Affiliate tracking cookies typically last for the attribution window set by each network.

6. Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy as our use of cookies evolves or as the law changes. The "Last updated" date above shows when it was last revised. Please check back periodically.
