This Cookie Policy explains how IABET LLC (“IABET”) uses cookies and similar technologies when you use our mobile application and website.
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small data files stored on your device. In the context of a mobile app, we use similar technologies such as local storage, secure storage, and device identifiers to provide the same functionality as traditional browser cookies.
2. Essential Cookies
These are required for the Service to function and cannot be disabled:
- Authentication tokens: keep you signed in securely (Clerk)
- Session data: maintain your active session state
- Security tokens: prevent CSRF and other attacks
- Preferences: language, theme, odds format
3. Analytics Cookies
We use analytics to understand usage patterns and improve the Service:
- Segment: routes optional product analytics events when you enable analytics in the app
- PostHog: optional product analytics, feature adoption, and masked session replay when you enable analytics in the app
When enabled, analytics may be associated with your IABET account so we can understand feature usage, debug issues, and improve the Service. We mask text input fields and images in session replay.
4. Third-Party Technologies
Our service providers may use their own tracking technologies. These are governed by their respective privacy policies:
- Sentry (error monitoring)
- OneSignal (push notifications)
- Adapty (subscription entitlement management)
- Google AdMob (in-app advertising for non-paying tiers — see Section 5)
5. Advertising Identifiers (Google AdMob)
The IABET mobile application shows advertisements to users on free or trial tiers via Google AdMob. Users on paid subscription tiers do not see ads.
For ad delivery, frequency capping, measurement, and fraud prevention, AdMob accesses the mobile advertising identifier (IDFA on iOS, Android Advertising ID on Android) along with device, app, and ad-interaction metadata. This identifier is distinct from a cookie — it is provided by your operating system and can be reset or limited at any time:
- iOS: Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking. Personalized ads also require explicit consent via the App Tracking Transparency (ATT) prompt the first time the app needs to track.
- Android: Settings > Google > Ads > “Delete advertising ID” or “Opt out of Ads Personalization.”
EEA, UK, and Switzerland users: The app uses Google's User Messaging Platform (UMP) — a Google-certified Consent Management Platform — to obtain your consent before any personal data is processed for ad personalization. If you do not consent, you will only see non-personalized (contextual) ads. You can change your choice at any time from within the app.
Subscribing to a paid tier removes ads entirely. For more on how Google handles this data, see policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites and policies.google.com/technologies/ads. To manage Google ad personalization across all Google services, visit adssettings.google.com.
6. Data Retention
Session cookies are deleted when you close the app. Persistent cookies (such as login tokens and preferences) are retained for up to 12 months or until you manually clear app data from your device.
7. Your Choices
You can manage cookies and similar technologies through:
- Your device's privacy settings
- The IABET app's notification preferences
- The IABET app's analytics preference in Settings
- Clearing app data from your device settings
- Contacting us to opt out of optional analytics tracking
Disabling essential cookies may prevent the app from functioning properly.
