Cookie policy
The small set of cookies and similar storage Fanrig uses, and how to control them.
Last updated
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small files a website stores in your browser. Similar technologies include local storage and session storage. We use them sparingly and never for third party advertising.
2. Strictly necessary
These are required for the service to work and cannot be switched off.
- Creator invite: when you open an invite a creator sent you to join as a creator, remembers for 30 days which creator invited you, so the referral program you came through can credit them when your application is approved (fanrig_invite). It holds only the invite reference and the time, signed so it cannot be changed.
- Session cookie: keeps you signed in. Expires after 14 days or when you log out.
- Second factor cookies: a short lived sign in challenge (5 minutes) while you enter an authenticator code, and the confirmation that the second factor was completed for the session.
- Device cookie: a random identifier that lets us recognize a new device and warn you about sign ins you might not have made. Kept for 400 days.
- Age confirmation cookie: remembers for 12 months that a visitor confirmed being 18 or older in front of age restricted content.
- Security tokens: protect forms against cross site request forgery and detect abusive traffic.
- Payment provider cookies set by Stripe on its own checkout pages to prevent fraud.
- Cookie choice: remembers whether you accepted all cookies or only the necessary ones. Kept for 12 months.
3. Creator tracking links (only with your consent)
When you open a creator's tracking link and accept all cookies, we remember for 30 days which link brought you here, so the creator sees how many sign ups and purchases each link produced. The cookie holds only the link reference and the time of the click, signed so it cannot be changed. Clicks on tracking links are counted on our server without any cookie, whatever you choose.
- fanrig_link: the creator tracking link that brought you. Kept for 30 days.
4. Functional
Remember preferences such as collapsed sections, the last tab you viewed and whether you dismissed a notice. Stored in your browser only and never sent to our servers.
5. Analytics
We do not use third party analytics or advertising cookies and we do not sell browsing data. Visits to creator tracking links are counted on our server without cookies.
6. Your choices
On your first visit a notice lets you accept all cookies or only the necessary ones. Your choice is remembered for 12 months, and you can change it at any time with the button at the top of this page or the Cookies link in the footer. Choosing only necessary cookies removes the tracking link cookie. You can also delete or block cookies in your browser settings; blocking the session cookie signs you out.
