Cookies Policy

This Cookies Policy explains what cookies are, how we use cookies and similar technologies on Apex Perks, and how you can manage your preferences.

We do not use advertising cookies. We use storage that is strictly necessary for the website to work and, with your consent where required, Google Analytics cookies to measure how the website is used.

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to website owners.

Cookies can be "persistent" or "session" cookies. Persistent cookies remain on your device after you close your browser, while session cookies are deleted when you close your browser.

We use the following types of cookies on our website:

• Essential Cookies: We do not set any essential cookies ourselves. Our content delivery network, Cloudflare, may set a strictly necessary security cookie (such as __cf_bm, 30 minutes) to protect the website against bots. Such cookies do not require consent.
• Local and Session Storage: We store your votes (24 hours) and display preferences (rank, platform, region, 7 days) in your browser's local storage so the website can remember them, and your detected country and a technical analytics marker in session storage, deleted when you close the tab. This data stays on your device and is not used to track you.
• Analytics Cookies (Google Analytics 4): the _ga and _ga_<ID> cookies distinguish visitors and sessions so we can measure audience, popular pages, and feature usage. They last up to 13 months. In the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, they are only set if you accept them. Without consent, Google Analytics still loads but only receives cookieless pings (Google Consent Mode): no cookie is set on or read from your device.
• Consent Choice: your cookie choice is stored in your browser's local storage for 6 months, so we do not ask you again on every visit.

You have several options to manage or disable cookies. However, please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of our website.

Analytics Cookies:

You can accept or reject analytics cookies at any time with the "Update consent preferences" link in the footer of every page. If you reject them, existing Google Analytics cookies are deleted.

Browser Settings:

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can set your browser to refuse cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent. However, if you disable cookies, some features of our website may not function properly.

How to manage cookies in popular browsers:

• Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
• Mozilla Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
• Safari: Settings → Privacy → Manage Website Data
• Microsoft Edge: Settings → Privacy, search, and services → Cookies and site permissions

Cookies and similar storage can be either session or persistent:

• Session Storage: Your detected country and a technical analytics marker, deleted when you close the tab. We do not use session cookies.
• Persistent Cookies and Storage: Google Analytics cookies (up to 13 months, only with your consent where required), your votes (24 hours), display preferences (7 days), and cookie choice (6 months).

Local storage data expires automatically after the durations above, and you can delete it at any time through your browser settings.

We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the new Cookies Policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date.

We encourage you to review this Cookies Policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies.
