Cookie Policy
Last updated: 31 August 2026
This policy reflects how Cirkle actually operates today but has not yet completed legal review. Details highlighted in the text below are still pending and will be finalised before this policy is considered final.
1. Introduction
This Cookie Policy explains how Cirkle uses cookies and similar technologies on our website at cirkl3.com and in our mobile application. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
3. What Cirkle actually uses today
Cirkle currently uses strictly necessary cookies only.
We do not currently run advertising cookies, cross site tracking, or third party analytics on the Platform.
Strictly necessary cookies
| Purpose | Set by | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Keeping you signed in and maintaining your session | Clerk, our authentication provider | Without these you would be signed out on every page and could not buy a ticket or manage an event |
| Session security and protection against request forgery | Clerk and our own application | Protects your account from unauthorised use |
| Remembering interface preferences such as light or dark mode | Cirkle | Keeps the interface consistent for you |
These cookies are necessary for the Platform to work. They cannot be switched off through a preference control, because without them core functions such as signing in, buying a ticket, or scanning a pass at a gate would fail. You can block them in your browser settings, but the Platform will not function correctly.
Mobile application
Our mobile application does not use browser cookies. It stores your authentication session in your device's secure storage, and caches your tickets on your device so that your entry pass can be displayed even when there is no network connection at a venue. Cached ticket data stays on your device and is removed when you sign out or delete the app.
Payment pages
When you pay, you are directed to a payment page hosted by Paystack. Paystack sets its own cookies on that page, governed by Paystack's own policies. We do not control them.
4. If this changes
If we introduce analytics, performance measurement, or marketing technologies in future, we will update this Policy before doing so, and where the law requires consent we will ask for it and provide controls to manage your choices.
6. Third party links
The Platform may link to third party websites, including organiser and vendor social media pages. We are not responsible for their cookie or privacy practices.
7. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy. The current version is always published on the Platform with its revision date.
