1. Introduction
Welcome to Ingat.co, accessible at https://ingat.co/.
This Cookies Policy explains how cookies and similar technologies may be used when you visit our website, why these technologies may be necessary, what types of information they may collect, and how you can manage your preferences.
Ingat.co is an online sports media platform that publishes sports news, match updates, analysis, features, and other sports-related content in English. Our coverage includes Football, Basketball, Tennis, Motorsport, Boxing & MMA, Baseball, Cricket, Golf, American Football, Rugby, Hockey, Athletics, Olympics, Esports, Sports Business, and Other Sports.
Like many online publications, Ingat.co may use cookies and similar technologies to maintain website functionality, understand visitor activity, improve the reading experience, and support advertising services.
Some of these technologies may be provided directly by us, while others may be operated by third-party service providers.
This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains our broader approach to personal information and data protection.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites may store on your browser or device when you visit a webpage.
They allow a website or a third-party service to recognize a browser, remember certain information, maintain preferences, or support specific functions during a visit or across multiple visits.
Cookies can serve different purposes. Some are necessary for a website to operate correctly, while others help website owners understand traffic patterns or support advertising activities.
Cookies may also differ in how long they remain on your device.
Session cookies are generally removed when you close your browser.
Persistent cookies remain on your device for a specified period or until you delete them manually or through your browser settings.
Cookies do not all work in the same way, and their purposes depend on the technology and service involved.
3. What Are Similar Technologies?
In addition to cookies, Ingat.co and its service providers may use other technologies that perform similar functions.
These may include:
- Pixels and web beacons: Small elements that may help measure page views, advertising impressions, or interactions.
- Local storage: Browser storage that can retain certain information beyond an individual page session.
- Advertising identifiers: Identifiers used by certain devices or services to support advertising-related functions.
- Analytics technologies: Tools that help measure website traffic, engagement, and performance.
The specific technologies used depend on the website’s configuration and the third-party services that are active at a given time.
For convenience, this policy refers to cookies and these related technologies collectively as “cookies and similar technologies” unless a distinction is necessary.
4. Why We Use Cookies
Cookies and similar technologies may be used on Ingat.co for several purposes.
4.1 Essential Cookies
Essential cookies support functions necessary for the website to operate or provide a service requested by a visitor.
Depending on our website configuration, these functions may include maintaining security, managing certain technical operations, preserving privacy preferences, and supporting basic website functionality.
These technologies are not intended primarily for advertising or behavioral analytics.
Where applicable law permits essential cookies to operate without consent, we use them only for purposes that qualify for that treatment. Any information processing associated with them remains subject to applicable privacy requirements.
4.2 Functional Cookies
Functional cookies may help remember selected preferences or settings to provide a more consistent experience.
Depending on the features available on Ingat.co, these may include preferences related to website functionality, language, or other user-selected settings.
If these technologies are not implemented on our website, this category may not be used.
4.3 Analytics and Performance Cookies
Analytics cookies help website operators understand how visitors use a website.
If analytics services are enabled on Ingat.co, these technologies may help us understand:
- Which articles and sports categories receive the most visits.
- How visitors arrive at our website.
- Which pages are viewed during a visit.
- How visitors navigate between articles.
- Whether users encounter technical errors.
- How website performance can be improved.
For example, aggregated analytics information may help us understand whether readers are more interested in football news, basketball coverage, motorsport updates, tennis tournaments, or other sports.
We use these insights to evaluate our content and improve the website’s usability.
Analytics services may process technical identifiers and usage information in accordance with their own terms, configuration, and applicable privacy requirements.
4.4 Advertising Cookies
Ingat.co may display advertisements through Google AdSense or other advertising networks.
Where applicable, advertising cookies and similar technologies may be used to support the delivery and measurement of advertisements, prevent invalid traffic, limit repetitive advertising, and provide other advertising-related functions.
Depending on the advertising provider, your location, applicable law, and your privacy choices, these technologies may also support personalized advertising.
Personalized advertising may use information about browsing activity or interactions with advertising services to help select advertisements that are more relevant to a user.
Not all advertising cookies are used for personalization. Some advertising functions may operate with limited or contextual information.
4.5 Security and Fraud Prevention
Cookies and similar technologies may help service providers detect suspicious activity, identify invalid advertising traffic, maintain service integrity, and protect against abuse.
The exact technologies used for these purposes depend on the relevant service provider and the website’s technical configuration.
5. Google AdSense and Third-Party Advertising
Ingat.co may use Google AdSense or other third-party advertising services to display advertisements and support the operation of our publication.
These providers may use cookies or similar technologies to serve advertisements, measure advertising performance, prevent fraud, or support other functions described in their respective policies.
Depending on the service, these technologies may be associated with information such as browser characteristics, advertising interactions, website activity, and technical identifiers.
The information collected and the purposes for which it is processed depend on the provider’s services, the settings enabled, the user’s location, and applicable law.
Personalized and Non-Personalized Ads
Personalized advertisements may be selected using information associated with a user’s interests or activity, where permitted and subject to applicable consent and privacy requirements.
Non-personalized advertisements may be selected primarily using contextual information, such as the content of the page being viewed, or other limited information required for advertising delivery and measurement.
Non-personalized advertising does not necessarily mean that no cookies or similar technologies are used. Some limited technologies may still be needed for functions such as measurement, security, or frequency control, depending on the service.
