Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Bixitly Limited ('Company', 'we', 'us', and 'our') uses cookies and similar technologies on our website at https://bixitly.com('Website'). It explains what these technologies are, how we currently use them, and your rights to control our use of them.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners in order to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Bixitly Limited) are called 'first-party cookies'. Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called 'third-party cookies'. Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g. advertising, interactive content, and analytics). The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognise your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.

What cookies and storage does Bixitly currently use?

At the effective date of this Cookie Policy, our Website does not set any first-party cookies. We do not use local storage or session storage on our Website to identify or track visitors.

However, our Website displays certain content served from third-party services, which may attempt to set cookies or use similar technologies on your device:

Cookies we expect to use in the future

As we develop and launch our full product (including user accounts, token purchases, payment processing, and integrations with streaming platforms such as Twitch, YouTube, and Kick), we expect to introduce additional cookies and similar technologies. Specifically, our Service will likely use:

• Strictly necessary cookies for session management, authentication, and security
• Functional cookies for user preferences and account state
• Third-party cookies from payment processors (Stripe), streaming platform OAuth providers (Twitch, YouTube, Kick), and hosting and infrastructure providers (Vercel)

When new cookies are introduced, we will update this Cookie Policy accordingly and, where required by applicable law (including the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations), present a Cookie Consent Manager that allows you to accept or reject non-essential cookies before they are set on your device.

Why do we use cookies?

We do not currently use cookies on our own Website. Once we deploy cookies as part of our full product, some will be required for technical reasons in order for our Service to operate (referred to as 'essential' or 'strictly necessary' cookies), and others will enable us to enhance the user experience, maintain user accounts, and process payments securely.

How can I control cookies?

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. When we deploy cookies that require consent, you will be able to exercise your cookie rights by setting your preferences in our Cookie Consent Manager. The Cookie Consent Manager will allow you to select which categories of cookies you accept or reject. Essential cookies cannot be rejected as they are strictly necessary to provide you with our services.

In the meantime, you can control third-party cookies that may be set when our Website loads embedded content (such as the YouTube thumbnail image) by adjusting your browser settings to block third-party cookies. Most modern browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) restrict third-party cookies by default.

How can I control cookies on my browser?

As the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser to browser, you should visit your browser's help menu for more information. The following is information about how to manage cookies on the most popular browsers:

• Chrome
• Internet Explorer
• Firefox
• Safari
• Edge
• Opera

In addition, most advertising networks offer you a way to opt out of targeted advertising. If you would like to find out more information, please visit:

• Digital Advertising Alliance
• Digital Advertising Alliance of Canada
• European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance

What about other tracking technologies, like web beacons?

Cookies are not the only way to recognise or track visitors to a website. We may use other, similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called 'tracking pixels' or 'clear gifs'). These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enables us to recognise when someone has visited our Website or opened an email including them. This allows us, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within a website to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to the website from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to improve site performance, and to measure the success of email marketing campaigns. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and so declining cookies will impair their functioning.

Do you serve targeted advertising?

We do not currently serve targeted advertising on our Website. Third-party services that we embed (such as YouTube) may set advertising-related cookies on your device for their own purposes. Information about controlling these is set out above.

How often will you update this Cookie Policy?

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Please therefore revisit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.

The date at the top of this Cookie Policy indicates when it was last updated.
