Cookie Policy

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember information about your visit — such as your login status and preferences — and are widely used to make websites function correctly and provide a better experience.

2. How We Use Cookies

BAP uses cookies and similar technologies to:

• Authenticate users and maintain secure sessions

Most browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can:

• View and delete existing cookies

4.3 Impact of Disabling Cookies

Disabling essential cookies will affect platform functionality. For example:

5. Other Tracking Technologies

5.1 Local Storage

We may use HTML5 local storage to temporarily preserve form data, improving your experience when creating or editing events.

5.2 Session Replay

We use Sentry's session replay to understand user interactions and identify technical issues. Session replays are configured to exclude sensitive information such as payment details and passwords.

6. Do Not Track

Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" feature that signals to websites that you prefer not to be tracked. There is currently no industry standard for responding to these signals. As such, BAP does not currently respond to Do Not Track signals.

7. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal or operational reasons. Material changes will be communicated by posting an updated policy on the platform with a new "Last Updated" date.
