Cookie Policy

Revision dated August 11, 2025

This Cookie Policy explains how Sole Proprietor “Purtov Alexander Nikolaevich” (hereinafter — we, the SP) uses cookies and similar technologies on the website and in the Service https://bot-market.net (the Service). This document supplements our Personal Data Processing Policy.

1. What cookies and similar technologies are

Cookies are small text files saved by your browser or device when you visit a website. They make it possible to recognize your browser, maintain a session, remember settings, ensure security, and perform measurements.

By “similar technologies” we also mean SDKs (in mobile apps), pixels/web beacons, localStorage/IndexedDB, device identifiers, as well as server-side analytics technologies.

2. Categories of cookies we use

• Strictly necessary — provide the Service’s basic functions: sign-in/authentication, security, request routing. Without them, the Service will not operate.
• Functional — remember your settings (language, region, interface preferences) and improve convenience.
• Analytics — help us understand how the Service is used (traffic, events, stability) so we can improve the interface and performance. For this we use Google Analytics and Yandex Metrica.

We do not use behaviorally targeted advertising on third-party platforms via cookies on this site.

3. Google Analytics and Yandex Metrica

For analytics we use:

• Google Analytics — sets, in particular, _ga (up to 2 years), _ga_<container-id> (up to 2 years), _gid (24 hours), _gat (1 minute). These cookies help distinguish users, rate-limit requests, and measure interactions.
• Yandex Metrica — may set _ym_uid, _ym_d, _ym_isad, _ym_visorc, ymex, yandexuid, yuidss (retention ranges from a session to 1–2 years). These cookies are used for statistics, anti-fraud, and, when enabled, features such as “Webvisor” (recording and playback of user sessions to improve UX).

Exact names and retention periods may change at the providers’ discretion. Analytics data may be processed on providers’ servers (including outside your jurisdiction) under their data processing and protection terms.

4. Opting out of cookies on the site

We do not provide an interface to selectively disable cookies on the site. Use of the Service is only possible if you accept our cookies (both strictly necessary and analytics/functional).

If you do not agree to the use of cookies, you can delete or block them in your browser settings (see Section 5). In this case, the Service may be unavailable or significantly limited. If you wish to completely opt out of this site’s cookies, please leave the site and do not use the Service.
