What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your preferences, keep you logged in, and understand how you use the platform. BSPrep uses a minimal set of cookies strictly necessary for functionality and anonymous analytics.
Essential Cookies
These cookies are required for the platform to function. They manage your login session via Supabase authentication — without them, you cannot stay signed in. These cookies are always active and cannot be disabled without breaking core platform functionality.
Analytics Cookies
We use Google Analytics 4 (ID: G-06EFDQ4LSM) to understand how visitors interact with BSPrep — which pages are most visited, how long sessions last, and where users come from. This data is aggregated and anonymised. No personally identifiable information is shared with Google through this integration.
Performance Cookies
Vercel Analytics collects anonymous page load performance data to help us improve site speed and reliability. This data contains no personally identifiable information and is used solely for technical optimisation.
Search & Webmaster Tools
Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools are used to monitor how BSPrep appears in search engine results. These are site-level tools and do not place tracking cookies on your device or collect personal user data.
No Advertising Cookies
BSPrep does not use advertising networks, retargeting pixels, or third-party marketing cookies. We do not track you for ad targeting purposes, and we do not sell or share your browsing data with advertisers.
Cookie Duration
Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies (such as authentication tokens) may last up to 7 days or until you sign out. Analytics cookies set by Google Analytics may persist for up to 2 years in accordance with their default configuration.
Managing Your Cookies
You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings at any time. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Note that disabling essential cookies will prevent you from staying logged in to BSPrep. Disabling analytics cookies will not affect your ability to use the platform.
