COOKIE POLICY

Last updated May 17, 2026

Fight Swipe ("Fight Swipe," "we," "our," or "us") operates the website located at fightswipe.io (the "Platform"). This Cookie Policy describes the types of cookies and similar tracking technologies we deploy on the Platform, why we deploy them, and the choices available to you regarding their use.

Because our Platform is accessible to users of all ages — including minors under 18 who participate with verified parental or guardian consent — we take our data collection practices seriously and encourage all visitors to read this policy carefully. In certain circumstances, information collected through cookies may qualify as personal data, particularly when combined with other information we hold about you.

Understanding Cookies

A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your device (computer, tablet, smartphone, or other internet-enabled device) when you visit. Websites use cookies to remember information about your session, preferences, and activity, allowing them to function more effectively and deliver a more personalized experience.

We distinguish between two types of cookies:

  • First-party cookies are set directly by Fight Swipe and are used to support core platform functionality and improve your experience as you search for martial arts training and sparring partners.
  • Third-party cookies are placed by external services — such as analytics providers and advertising networks — that we have authorized to operate on our Platform. Those third parties may be able to recognize your device across multiple websites they serve.

Our Reasons for Using Cookies

Fight Swipe uses cookies to support a range of purposes. A subset of cookies are technically required — without them, core features of the Platform (such as secure login and session management) would not function. Beyond these necessary cookies, we also use cookies to analyze how users navigate the Platform, to measure the effectiveness of our outreach efforts, and to deliver advertising that may be relevant to your interests.

Each category is described in more detail in the section below.

You control whether non-essential cookies are placed on your device. When you first visit the Platform, you will be presented with a Cookie Consent Manager where you can accept or decline cookies by category. You may return to the Cookie Consent Manager at any time through the link available in the footer of our Platform.

Please be aware that essential cookies cannot be disabled through the Cookie Consent Manager — they are fundamental to delivering the services you have requested. Declining other categories of cookies will not prevent you from using the Platform, but certain features or personalized content may not be available to you. You may also manage cookies directly through your browser settings, as described below.

The specific cookies we currently deploy, organized by purpose, are listed in the following sections. Note that the cookies present on any given page may vary.

Essential Cookies

Essential cookies enable the fundamental operations of our Platform. They are used, for example, to maintain your authenticated session and to protect against unauthorized access to your account and personal data. These cookies are activated automatically and cannot be turned off through the Cookie Consent Manager.

Performance and Feature Cookies

These cookies support enhanced functionality and a better user experience on the Platform. They are not required for the Platform to operate in a basic sense, but without them, certain features — such as embedded video content demonstrating martial arts techniques — may not work as intended.

Analytics and Personalization Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our Platform. The data collected is primarily aggregated and used to identify trends in usage, assess the reach of our marketing, and tailor the Platform experience to better serve our community of martial arts practitioners.

Advertising Cookies

Advertising cookies allow us and our advertising partners to present promotional content that is more relevant to your interests. These cookies help ensure that advertisements are not repeated unnecessarily, that they render correctly, and that — where you have consented — they reflect topics aligned with your browsing activity.

Cookies Pending Classification

We occasionally deploy new cookies in the course of testing features or integrating new services. Some cookies may not yet have been fully reviewed and classified. We are actively working with the relevant providers to categorize these cookies and will update this policy accordingly.

Managing Cookies in Your Browser

All major web browsers include built-in tools for managing cookies. Settings and menus vary by browser, so we recommend consulting your browser's official help documentation for step-by-step guidance. For convenience, direct links to cookie management instructions for widely used browsers are provided below:

If you wish to opt out of interest-based advertising more broadly, the following industry organizations provide opt-out mechanisms:

Other Tracking Technologies

Cookies are one of several methods we and our partners may use to recognize visitors. We may also use pixel tags — also referred to as web beacons or clear GIFs — which are small, transparent image files embedded in web pages or email messages. When your device loads a page or opens an email containing a pixel tag, the tag transmits certain information (such as your IP address and device type) to us or to a third-party service.

Pixel tags help us understand navigation patterns within the Platform, confirm whether emails have been opened, attribute visits to specific advertising campaigns, and assess overall Platform performance. Where pixel tags rely on cookies to function, choosing not to accept those cookies will limit the effectiveness of the pixel tags as well.

Flash Cookies and Local Shared Objects

Our Platform may utilize Adobe Flash-based features that depend on Local Shared Objects (LSOs), commonly referred to as Flash cookies. LSOs can store data about your interactions with Flash content on our Platform, and may be used to support fraud prevention and maintain the integrity of our services.

Unlike standard browser cookies, Flash cookies are managed through Adobe's own settings rather than your browser. To restrict or remove Flash cookies, you may use the Website Storage Settings Panel or the Global Storage Settings Panel available through Adobe's website. These tools allow you to view, limit, and delete Flash-stored data.

Keep in mind that restricting Flash cookies may affect the performance of Flash-based content or functionality on the Platform and on other websites.

Interest-Based Advertising from Third Parties

We permit third-party advertising companies to place cookies and similar technologies on your device when you visit our Platform. These companies may collect data about your visits to our Platform and to other websites to build an interest profile and serve you advertisements that they believe are relevant to you. They may also use this data to measure how well their ads perform.

The information gathered for advertising purposes does not — on its own — enable these companies or us to identify you by name or contact details unless you have separately provided that information.

Updates to This Policy

We will revise this Cookie Policy as necessary to reflect changes in our cookie practices, the services we offer, or applicable legal requirements. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date displayed at the top of this page. We encourage you to check back periodically to stay informed.
