Cookie Policy
What This Site Uses
Bent Over Club uses essential browser storage only. We do not use advertising cookies, tracking pixels, or third-party analytics. Your browsing is not monitored or profiled.
Storage We Use
These are localStorage entries, not cookies in the technical sense. They never leave your browser and are never sent to any server. They exist solely to remember your preferences and poll votes between visits.
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
boc-theme | localStorage | Remembers your light/dark mode preference | Persistent |
boc_holmes_pardon_voted | localStorage | Remembers your Holmes pardon poll vote | Persistent |
boc_microsoft_google_voted | localStorage | Remembers your Microsoft/Builder.ai poll vote | Persistent |
boc_adobe_billion_voted | localStorage | Remembers your Adobe/Figma poll vote | Persistent |
Third-Party Services
Cloudflare — This site is served via Cloudflare Workers. Cloudflare may set a __cf_bm cookie for bot protection. This is a strictly necessary security cookie and does not track your browsing activity. See their privacy policy.
Google Fonts — We load typefaces (Bebas Neue, Pacifico, Montserrat) from Google Fonts. Google may log font requests. See their privacy policy.
Beehiiv — Our newsletter subscription form is provided by Beehiiv. When embedded on our site, Beehiiv may set cookies for form functionality. See their privacy policy.
What We Do Not Do
- We do not run Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or any advertising network.
- We do not sell, share, or transmit your personal data.
- We do not fingerprint your browser.
- We do not set first-party cookies.
- All poll votes are stored in your browser only — no data is sent to our servers.
Your Rights
Under GDPR (EU), CCPA (California), and similar regulations, you have the right to know what data is stored and to delete it. Since we only use localStorage, you can clear it anytime via your browser settings (Settings → Clear browsing data → Cookies and site data). This will reset your theme preference and poll votes.
Future Changes
If we ever introduce advertising, analytics, or any non-essential cookies, we will update this policy and implement a cookie consent banner before activation.
