Cookie Policy

Every cookie this site sets, what it is for, and how to switch it off. No advertising cookies, and nothing sold or shared with ad networks.

The short version

We use cookies for three things: keeping you signed in, remembering your preferences, and counting visits so we know which parts of the site are worth improving.

We do not run advertising cookies. We do not sell your data, and we do not share it with ad networks. If that ever changes, this page changes first and you will be asked again.

You are asked before anything optional is set, and you can change your mind at any time from your profile.

Who this applies to

This policy is between you and Daniel Newman Racing Ltd, who own and run danielnewmanracing.com. It covers the website only. What we do with personal data more broadly is set out in our Privacy Policy, and the two should be read together.

What a cookie is

A cookie is a small text file the site asks your browser to keep. It lets one page remember something from the last one, which is how you stay signed in when you move around the site.

A cookie on its own usually says nothing about who you are. Some of ours are tied to your account once you sign in, and where that happens it is handled under the Privacy Policy.

The three kinds we use
KindWhat it is forCan you refuse?
EssentialSigning in, staying signed in, and keeping your session attached to the right account. Without these you cannot log in.No, the site cannot work without them
PreferencesRemembering choices you have already made, such as your currency or whether the sidebar is open.Yes
AnalyticsCounting visits and seeing which pages get used, so we know what to fix, and recording how you found us so we know which of the places we talk about DNR are worth the effort. Site usage is reported in aggregate. How you found us is kept against your account if you have one, so that we can tell which sources bring people who stay. Never sold, never shared, never used to advertise to you.Yes

There is no fourth kind. We do not set advertising or targeting cookies.

Every cookie we set

This is the full list. If you find one on the site that is not here, tell us and we will either explain it or remove it.

Essential

CookieWhat it does
clerk_db_jwtProves you are signed in. Set by Clerk, who handle our accounts and logins.
__sessionKeeps you signed in as you move between pages. Also Clerk.
selectedPartnerIdRemembers which company you are working under, if you belong to more than one.

Preferences

CookieWhat it does
dnr-themeRemembers whether you chose light, dark, or to follow your system.
userCurrencyRemembers the currency you want prices shown in.
sidebar_stateRemembers whether you left the dashboard sidebar open or collapsed.
dnr_refRecords which creator's link brought you here, so they get credited if you subscribe. Holds a public creator code and nothing about you. Expires after 90 days.
dnr_ref_seenNotes that your visit has already been counted for that creator, so refreshing the page does not count twice. Expires after 90 days.

Analytics

CookieWhat it does
_gaGoogle Analytics. Tells repeat visits apart from new ones.
_ga_*Google Analytics. Holds the current visit, so a session is not counted as several.
_gidGoogle Analytics. Same job as _ga, over a single day.
dnr_acqRecords how you first found us and what brought you back most recently, for example a link from a video or a search. We use it to understand which of the places we talk about DNR actually reach people. It holds the campaign details from the link you followed and the name of the site that referred you, never the full address you came from. If you create an account, this is saved against it so we still know months later. Set by us, never shared with anyone, never used to advertise to you. Expires after 90 days.

These are only set once you accept analytics. Until then Google Consent Mode holds the Google ones back, and dnr_acq is not written at all.

Turning them off

Change your mind whenever you like from your profile. Preferences and analytics can both be switched off there.

You can also block or delete cookies in your browser. Every browser does this differently, so its own help pages are the best guide, and aboutcookies.org covers the general ground.

Blocking the essential ones will stop you signing in, because the site has no other way to tell who you are. Blocking the rest simply means the site forgets your preferences between visits.

If this policy changes

We update this page when the cookies change, and the date at the top tells you when that last happened. If we ever add a kind of cookie we do not use today, advertising above all, we will ask for your consent again rather than rely on consent you gave for something else.
