Cookie Policy

Last updated: April 2026

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember your preferences, keep you logged in, and understand how the site is being used. This policy explains which cookies Player Portal uses and why.

2. How we use cookies

Player Portal uses a minimal set of cookies, focused on keeping the platform working and secure. We do not use advertising cookies, behavioural tracking cookies, or any cookies that build a profile of you or your child for marketing purposes.

3. Cookie categories

Essential cookies (always on)

These cookies are required for the platform to work. You cannot disable them without breaking the site.

  • sb-access-token · Supabase authentication
  • sb-refresh-token · Supabase session refresh
  • __stripe_mid, __stripe_sid · Stripe fraud prevention during checkout

Functional cookies (on by default, opt-out available)

These remember your preferences — e.g. dark mode, collapsed nav groups.

  • pp-theme · Your dark/light theme preference
  • nav-collapsed · Which sidebar sections you've collapsed

Analytics cookies (not currently in use)

We don't use analytics cookies at this time. If we add them in future, you'll be asked to opt in.

Advertising cookies

We do not use advertising cookies. We will never sell your data.

4. Third-party cookies

When you interact with certain features, our trusted providers may set cookies. These are essential to the function you're using.

  • Stripe — for secure payment processing and fraud prevention
  • Supabase — for authentication and session management

These providers have their own privacy policies and are contractually bound under our Data Processing Agreement.

5. Managing cookies

You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. Please note that disabling essential cookies will log you out and may prevent Player Portal from working properly.

6. Children's data

Player Portal is a platform used by adults (parents, coaches, academy admins) on behalf of children. Children do not directly interact with the platform, and we do not use cookies to track children or build profiles of them.

7. Updates to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we'll update the “last updated” date at the top and, if changes are material, notify you by email or in the dashboard.
