Cookie Policy

Last updated on Jul 05, 2026

Quick answer: Tennis Ladder uses essential cookies only — the ones that keep you signed in. Our analytics are self-hosted and cookieless. No advertising or cross-site tracking cookies, so there's no cookie banner to click.

Cookies we set

All of these are essential — the app can't sign you in without them:

Cookie What it does
tl_auth Keeps you signed in to your account
tl_session Keeps organisers signed in to the admin area
tl_player Remembers your player link on this device

They are HTTP-only, secure, and never used for tracking or shared with anyone.

Local storage

The app stores small preferences on your device (for example notification snoozes and display settings). These never leave your device.

Analytics

We use self-hosted, privacy-friendly analytics (no cookies, no personal identifiers, no data sold or shared) purely to see which features are used.

Support chat

If you open the in-app support chat, our self-hosted support system sets a session token so your conversation stays connected. It loads only when you open the chat — never on normal page loads.

Managing cookies

Because we only use essential cookies, there's nothing to opt in or out of — blocking them in your browser will simply sign you out. For anything else, see our Privacy Policy.
