Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Scoreline, operated by BROWNZ MEDIA SERVICES LTD (company number 17225531), uses cookies. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, to remember your session, and in some cases to analyse usage or serve advertising.

2. How we use cookies

We keep our use of cookies to the minimum needed to run the Service. We use a single strictly-necessary cookie to keep you signed in. We do not use analytics, advertising or third-party tracking cookies, and we do not use cookies to build a profile of you.

Because our only cookie is strictly necessary for the Service to function (it cannot work without keeping you logged in), it does not require consent under UK rules. That is why you do not see a cookie consent banner.

3. The cookie we use

Name	Purpose	Type	Expiry
connect.sid	Keeps you signed in by linking your browser to your secure server-side session.	Strictly necessary, first-party	Up to 30 days (or until you sign out)

This cookie is set as HttpOnly (it cannot be read by client-side scripts), with SameSite=Lax, and is marked Secure so it is only sent over HTTPS. It does not contain your personal data directly — it holds a random session identifier that maps to your session on our server.

4. Spectator views

The public scoreboard and table views used for streaming and venue display do not require you to sign in and do not set this cookie.

5. Managing cookies

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings, and set your browser to block them. Please note that if you block or delete our session cookie, you will not be able to stay signed in and core parts of the Service will not work.

6. Changes to this policy

If we introduce any new cookies in the future — for example optional analytics — we will update this policy and, where required, ask for your consent first. The "last updated" date above shows when it was last revised.
