Cookie Policy
Last updated: March 23, 2026
Our Approach to Cookies
We keep things simple — on and off the court. The SimpleScore website uses only the bare minimum cookies required for our site to function. We do not use cookies for advertising, behavioral tracking, or analytics.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device to remember preferences or maintain session state. They are a standard part of how the web works and are used by virtually every website you visit.
Cookies We Use
The only cookies on our site are strictly necessary cookies set by our hosting infrastructure. These are required for the website to operate correctly:
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| __next* | Set by our web framework (Next.js) to handle page routing and caching. Contains no personal data. | Session |
| __vercel* | Set by our hosting provider to route requests and protect against abuse. Contains no personal data. | Session |
Cookies We Do Not Use
- Analytics cookies: We do not use Google Analytics, Hotjar, Mixpanel, or any other analytics platform that tracks your behavior.
- Advertising cookies: We do not run ads on our site or use retargeting pixels from Facebook, Google, or any ad network.
- Social media cookies: We do not embed social media widgets that set their own tracking cookies.
Third-Party Links
Our site contains links to Amazon.com where you can purchase The SimpleScore. When you click through to Amazon, their site will set its own cookies according to their privacy notice. We have no control over cookies set by third-party websites.
Managing Cookies in Your Browser
You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling all cookies may affect how our website functions. Here is how to manage cookies in common browsers:

Changes to This Policy
If we begin using additional cookies in the future — for example, if we add analytics to improve the site — we will update this page and, where required, ask for your consent before setting non-essential cookies.
