This Cookie Policy explains how Soundswire LLC ("Betcut", "we", "our" or "us") uses cookies and similar technologies on the website at betcut.app (the "Site"). It complements our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal data more broadly.
We use only strictly necessary cookies. We do not use advertising cookies, tracking pixels, social plugins, session-replay tools, or third-party analytics on the Site. If you create an account, your browser will store an authentication cookie so you stay signed in. That is essentially it.
What we use, exactly
We classify cookies and similar storage by purpose. Here is every category we use, with no exceptions:
- Strictly necessary — authentication. When you sign in, our authentication provider sets a session cookie so we know who you are on subsequent requests. Without this cookie, you cannot stay signed in.
- Strictly necessary — security. Our edge provider (Cloudflare) sets cookies that help detect and block malicious traffic, prevent CSRF, and keep the Site available. These cookies do not identify you personally and are required for the Site to function safely.
- Strictly necessary — preferences. We use a small piece of local storage to remember whether you already dismissed our cookie notice, and your theme preference. This data never leaves your browser.
That is the full list. We do not use:
- Advertising or marketing cookies.
- Cross-site tracking pixels.
- Social-media share trackers (Facebook, X, LinkedIn).
- Third-party analytics on the Site (Google Analytics, etc.).
- Session-replay tools that record your screen or keystrokes.
- Fingerprinting libraries.
The iOS App is separate
This Cookie Policy covers only the Site at betcut.app. The Betcut iOS App does not use web cookies — it uses native secure storage for authentication. Product analytics inside the App are handled by PostHog with the limits described in our Privacy Policy, and you can disable them at any time from Settings → "Help improve Betcut".
Legal basis (EEA / UK)
Under the EU ePrivacy Directive and UK PECR, strictly necessary cookies do not require prior consent because they are essential for a service the user has explicitly requested (signing in, security, or remembering a preference). Because we use only strictly necessary cookies, we do not present a consent wall on the Site. We do, however, show a brief informational notice that links here so you always know what is happening.
How to control cookies
You can clear or block cookies through your browser settings at any time. Specific instructions:
If you block strictly necessary cookies, you may not be able to sign in or keep an account session active. There is nothing to block on the marketing pages — they work without cookies.
Do-Not-Track and Global Privacy Control
Because we do not engage in cross-context behavioral advertising or sale of personal information, our practices already align with Do-Not-Track and Global Privacy Control signals. We respect those signals where they apply.
Changes to this policy
If we ever introduce a new cookie category — for example, opt-in product analytics on the Site — we will update this page first, revise the "Last updated" date, and present a proper consent UI before any non-essential cookie is set. We will not retroactively enable cookies you did not agree to.
