Cookie Policy

Last Updated: June 10, 2025

Our Privacy Policy explains our principles when it comes to the collection, processing, and storage of your information. This policy specifically explains how we and our partners deploy cookies, as well as the options you have to control them.


What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small pieces of data, stored in text files, that are stored on your computer or other device when websites are loaded in a browser. They are widely used to "remember" you and your preferences, either for a single visit (through a "session cookie") or for multiple repeat visits (using a "persistent cookie"). They ensure a consistent and efficient experience for visitors, and perform essential functions such as allowing users to register and remain logged in.

Cookies may be set by the site that you are visiting (known as "first party cookies"), or by third parties, such as those who serve content or provide analytics services on the website ("third party cookies").

How We Use Cookies

We use cookies for a limited number of purposes:

  • Required / Functional cookies: Some cookies are necessary for technical reasons — for example, to keep you logged in, to remember your cookie preferences, and to enable secure payment processing through Stripe.
  • Analytics cookies: We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to understand how many visitors our websites receive and to gather general usage statistics. This data is anonymized and does not personally identify you.

We do not use cookies for advertising, marketing, or tracking your activity across third-party websites.

Some cookies are set only if you are a registered user (so you don't have to log in every time), while others are set whenever you visit one of our websites, irrespective of whether you have an account.

Where We Place Cookies

We set cookies on our websites, including:

  • grippedapp.com (production)
  • grippedapp.dev (staging / non-production)

Types of Cookie

The table below explains the types of cookies we use on our websites and why we use them.

Category of Cookies Why We Use These Cookies
Required These cookies are essential for our websites and services to perform basic functions and are necessary for us to operate certain features. These include those required to allow registered users to authenticate and perform account-related functions, store preferences set by users such as cookie consent preferences, and ensure our services are operating properly and securely.
Analytics These cookies allow us to optimize performance by collecting anonymized information on how users interact with our websites, including which pages are visited and how many visitors we receive. We use Cloudflare Web Analytics for this purpose. This data is aggregated and does not identify you personally.

Examples of Cookies We Set

Below are examples of the cookies set by Gripped, with explanations of their purpose. Please note that this is not an exhaustive list, but rather aims to be representative.

Required Cookies

Cookie Purpose
__stripe_sid / __stripe_mid Set by Stripe for processing payments and to aid in fraud detection.
gripped_session Authentication cookie used to identify logged-in users and maintain their session.
gripped_cookie_consent Remembers the state of visitor acceptance to the cookie banner. Only set when the visitor makes a choice.
XSRF-TOKEN Security cookie used to prevent cross-site request forgery attacks.

Analytics Cookies

Cookie Purpose
_cf_chl_opt / _cfuvid Set by Cloudflare for analytics and security purposes. Used to count visitors and understand general usage patterns. Data is anonymized.

Controlling Cookies

Visitors may wish to restrict the use of cookies or completely prevent them from being set. Most browsers provide ways to control cookie behavior — such as the length of time they are stored — either through built-in functionality or by utilizing third party plugins.

If you disable cookies, please be aware that some features of our service may not function correctly (for example, you may not be able to log in or complete a payment).

To find out more on how to manage and delete cookies, visit aboutcookies.org. For more details on your choices regarding use of your web browsing activity for interest-based advertising, visit youronlinechoices.eu (EU based) or optout.aboutads.info (US based).

On a mobile device, you may also be able to adjust your settings to limit tracking.

Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by email or by posting a notice on our website prior to the change becoming effective.
