Cookie Policy

Last updated: 20 October 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how outdoors.live ("we", "us", "our") uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website or use our mobile application (the "Platform"). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site function, remember your preferences, and provide information to the site owners. Similar technologies such as local storage and pixels serve comparable purposes.

2. Types of cookies we use

Strictly necessary cookies

These are essential for the Platform to work. They keep you signed in, secure your session, and remember your language preference. The Platform cannot function properly without them, so they do not require consent.

Functional cookies

These remember choices you make (such as your preferred language or region) to provide a more personalized experience.

Analytics cookies

These help us understand how visitors use the Platform — which pages are visited and how the service performs — so we can improve it. We use Google Analytics (Google Ireland Ltd.) for this purpose. They collect information in an aggregated form and are set only if you accept cookies in our consent banner.

Marketing cookies

These are set only with your consent. We use the Meta Pixel (Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd.) to measure the effectiveness of our advertising on Facebook and Instagram and to build audiences for those ads. The pixel records the pages you visit and actions such as creating an account, subscribing to race alerts, or saving a race, and shares this with Meta, which may link it to your Facebook or Instagram account. See Meta's cookie policy for details.

3. Third-party cookies

Some features rely on third-party services (for example, Google Analytics, the Meta Pixel, embedded video players or live-streaming providers) that may set their own cookies. We do not control these cookies; please refer to the relevant third party's cookie policy.

4. How long cookies last

Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device until they expire or you delete them.

5. Managing cookies

When you first visit the Platform we ask whether you accept analytics and marketing cookies. If you decline, none of them are set. You can withdraw or change your choice at any time by deleting the cookie_consent cookie in your browser; the banner will then appear again. You can also control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers let you block or remove cookies, or alert you when a cookie is set. Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies may prevent parts of the Platform from working correctly.

6. Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. The latest version will always be available on this page with an updated "Last updated" date.
