Cookie basics
Cookies are small data files a website may ask your browser to store and send back during later visits. They can support sessions, remember preferences or measure activity.
Cookies are separate from cached files, bookmarks and downloaded pages. Browsers can also hold information through storage features that are not cookies.

Essential
Features that need no cookies
Menus, FAQ sections, filters, calculators and checklists operate in your browser without a lasting identifier or account session.
The informational login guide does not access an account. Any external provider session follows that provider’s own cookie policy.
Analytics
Measurement and advertising
Mate includes no analytics platform, remarketing code or advertising tracker. Opening a page does not call an external font host, image service or tracking pixel.
A website you open through an external link may set cookies under its own policy and your browser preferences.

Common questions
Mate cookies policy FAQ
Can Australian players read Mate pages without accepting cookies?
Yes. These pages do not set cookies and do not require a consent choice to view the information.
Why might my browser still show cached Mate files?
Caching keeps website files available for faster loading. It is separate from cookies and can be managed in browser settings.
Will Mate remember my checklist selections?
Selections last while the page remains open and reset after a reload. They are not saved in browser storage.
Does Mate’s cookies policy cover linked websites?
No. Each external destination controls its own cookies and privacy practices. Read that site’s policy before continuing.

Mate cookies policy for Australian players
What the Mate cookie policy covers
Cookies are small files or related data that a website can place in a browser or device. They may remember settings, support a session or show how visitors use pages.
The information published for Mate does not provide an itemised cookie register or identify the purpose, lifespan or provider of each cookie. Check the current policy and any notices displayed on the site for the latest detail.
Possible Mate cookie categories
Websites often group cookies into broad types, but those groups do not confirm that Mate uses every type. The current Mate policy or consent notice is the right source for identifying cookies and third parties.
Typical groups include:
- Essential cookies may support navigation, core tools or a working session.
- Preference cookies may retain language, display or other choices.
- Analytics cookies may record visits and page usage.
- Advertising cookies may personalise or measure promotional activity.
Managing Mate cookies through a browser
Most browsers let you view, block or erase cookies from privacy or site-data menus. Labels differ by device, so search for Cookies, Site data or Privacy.
Common browser options include:
- Open settings and locate the privacy or site-data section.
- Review saved Mate data and remove its cookies if you want to clear them.
- Block every cookie or only third-party cookies where your browser provides that choice.
- Use private browsing when you do not want site data retained after the session.
If cookies are blocked
Deleting or blocking cookies can change how a website works. You might need to enter details again, and some functions may behave differently.
If Mate shows a cookie banner or preference tool, review it before changing browser-wide settings. Browser controls manage stored data but may not undo consent recorded through the site’s own tool.
Mate cookies, privacy and security
Cookie choices are distinct from other privacy and security measures. Mate states that it uses 128-bit encryption, but that does not identify cookies or guarantee how personal information is handled.
Read the current Mate privacy and cookie information and review any consent choices shown during a visit. Australian players should check browser privacy settings regularly, especially on shared devices. If a cookie is not described, its purpose and retention period are not confirmed.
