This page explains the cookies Rival Radar uses on rivalradar.me. We keep this deliberately short, because we keep our actual cookie use short: we use only strictly necessary cookies to run the service. We don't use analytics, advertising, or cross-site tracking cookies of any kind, and we don't show a cookie consent banner, because strictly necessary cookies don't legally require one.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
sb-*-auth-token | Keeps you signed in between visits. | Up to 400 days, or until you log out. |
sb-*-auth-token-flow-* | Set only while you're signing in with Google or clicking a password-reset or confirmation email link. It verifies that step completes securely. | Deleted automatically once sign-in completes, or on your next visit. |
rr_last_seen | Set while you're signed in. It holds no value at all: its presence simply tells us we've already noted that you were here this hour, so we don't write that down again on every page you open. It doesn't identify you and nobody else can read it. | One hour. |
If you upgrade to a paid plan, you're taken to Stripe's own checkout page to enter payment details. Stripe may set its own cookies at that point, on stripe.com, not on rivalradar.me. That's covered by Stripe's own privacy policy, not this one.
Our front page shows badges from the directories Rival Radar is listed on, and each badge picture is loaded from that directory's own site: Product Hunt, BetaList, Saas Hunt, PostYourStartup, Noonlaunch and Sell With Boost. Asking those sites for a picture lets them see the request, and some of them sit behind Cloudflare, which sets a short-lived security cookie on their own domain. Nothing is set on rivalradar.me, nothing tracks you across our pages, and no badge is loaded anywhere else on the site.
You can block or delete cookies at any time through your browser's settings. Since the cookies above are strictly necessary, blocking them will sign you out and prevent you from logging back in. There's no optional cookie to switch off instead.
If we ever change what cookies we use, for example if we add analytics in the future, we'll update this page and, where legally required, introduce a proper consent mechanism first.
