Last updated: 26 April 2026
1. What are cookies?
- Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember you and your preferences.

Local storage data stays on your device and is not sent to our servers. It is cleared when you clear your browser data.
6. Managing your cookie preferences
- When you first visit MyRacingPath, you will see a cookie consent banner asking you to accept or reject non-essential cookies. Both options are equally prominent.
- You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the “Cookie Settings” link in the footer.
- You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies.

For accounts identified as belonging to users under 18:
- Only strictly necessary and functional cookies are used by default.
- Advertising and behavioural tracking cookies are never used.
- Analytics cookies require explicit parental consent.
