Cookie Policy
Effective date: 12 July 2026.
This Cookie Policy explains how Okpa Hunters uses cookies and similar technologies to recognise you when you visit our Service. It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them. Terms defined in our Privacy Policy have the same meaning here.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, remember your preferences, and provide reporting information. Similar technologies include localStorage, sessionStorage, and pixel tags.
2. Categories of cookies we use

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Authentication, session security, CSRF protection, load balancing. | sb-*-auth-token, __cf_bm | Session – 7 days | Legitimate interest (essential) |

3. We do not use advertising cookies
Okpa Hunters does not run behavioural advertising, does not sell your personal information, and does not use third-party ad-tracking pixels.
4. How to control cookies
- In-app: Analytics cookies are set only after you accept them. You can withdraw consent at any time from your account settings.
- Browser: Most browsers allow you to refuse or delete cookies via their settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent you from signing in.
- Do Not Track: We currently do not respond to DNT signals because there is no consistent industry standard for what to do; we honour your explicit consent choice instead.
5. Changes
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. The "Effective date" above will reflect the latest version.
