What Are Cookies
Welcome to Sugar Rush. Like most online services, our website, SugarRush.com, uses cookies and similar technologies. Cookies are small text files that are downloaded to your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide reporting information to the owners of the site. They allow a website to remember your actions or preferences over time.
Cookies can be persistent or session cookies. Persistent cookies remain on your personal computer or mobile device when you go offline, while session cookies are deleted as soon as you close your web browser. We use both session and persistent cookies for the purposes set out below.
How We Use Cookies
Sugar Rush uses cookies for several important reasons. These include the proper functioning of our website, enhancing your user experience, personalising content, analysing site traffic, and for marketing purposes. By understanding how you interact with our platform, we can continually improve our services and tailor them to your preferences. We use cookies responsibly and transparently, always with your privacy in mind.
Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the Sugar Rush website to function correctly. Without them, you would not be able to use our site, log in to your account, or access secure areas. They enable core functionalities such as security, network management, and accessibility. For example, essential cookies help us maintain your login session as you move between different pages on SugarRush.com, preventing you from having to log in repeatedly. They also help us detect and prevent fraudulent activity. Because these cookies are vital for the operation of our services, they cannot be switched off in our systems.
- Purpose: To provide you with services available through the Sugar Rush website and to enable you to use some of its features. They help to authenticate users and prevent fraudulent use of user accounts.

Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with Sugar Rush by collecting and reporting information anonymously. This data allows us to see which parts of our website are most popular, how long users spend on certain pages, and if they encounter any errors. By gathering this information, we can identify areas for improvement, optimise our content, and enhance the user experience on SugarRush.com. These cookies do not identify you personally.
- Purpose: To understand how users engage with our website, track website performance, and identify areas for improvement.
- Type: Persistent Cookies

Functional Cookies
Functional cookies allow Sugar Rush to remember choices you make, such as your username, language preference, or region. They provide enhanced, more personal features. For example, if you customise aspects of the website, these cookies help us recall those preferences on your next visit. The information these cookies collect may be anonymised, and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites. They make your experience on SugarRush.com more convenient and tailored.
- Purpose: To remember your preferences and choices, providing a more personalised experience.
- Type: Persistent Cookies

Marketing and Advertising Cookies
Marketing and advertising cookies are used to deliver advertisements more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. These cookies are usually placed by our advertising partners with our permission. They remember that you have visited SugarRush.com and this information may be shared with other organisations, such as advertisers. This means that after you have visited our website, you may see advertisements about Sugar Rush on other sites you visit.
- Purpose: To deliver relevant advertisements, track advertising campaign performance, and understand user interests.
- Type: Persistent Cookies
- Administered by: Sugar Rush and third-party advertising partners
Third-Party Cookies
In addition to our own cookies, Sugar Rush also uses various third-party cookies to report usage statistics of the website, deliver advertisements on and through the website, and so on. These cookies are set by a domain different from SugarRush.com and are often used for cross-site tracking, re-targeting, and analytics. For example, we might use services like Google Analytics to help us understand how our site is being used, or social media plugins that allow you to share content. We carefully select our third-party partners and require they adhere to strict privacy standards. We have no access to or control over these cookies once we have given permission for them to be set.
How Long Cookies Last
The duration for which a cookie remains on your device depends on whether it is a session or persistent cookie. Session cookies are temporary and are typically deleted from your device once you close your web browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period, which can range from a few minutes to several years, or until you delete them manually. The expiry date of each persistent cookie is usually specified within the cookie itself. For example, some functional cookies might last for a few months to remember your language preference, while certain analytics cookies could persist for a couple of years to track returning visitors to SugarRush.com.
Managing and Disabling Cookies
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. However, please be aware that disabling cookies may impact the functionality and features available on Sugar Rush. For example, you may not be able to log in, save your preferences, or use some of our services if cookies are disabled.
You can manage cookies in common browsers as follows:
- Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and security > Site Settings > Cookies and site data.
- Mozilla Firefox: Options > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data.

Do Not Track
Some web browsers incorporate a "Do Not Track" feature that signals to websites you visit that you do not want your online activity tracked. Currently, Sugar Rush does not respond to "Do Not Track" signals. This is because there is no universal standard for how websites should interpret or respond to these signals. We continue to monitor developments in this area and may implement a standard once it is established. In the meantime, you can manage your cookie preferences directly through your browser settings as outlined in the "Managing and Disabling Cookies" section above.

Sugar Rush may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Cookie Policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this policy. We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy periodically for any changes. Changes to this Cookie Policy are effective when they are posted on this page. Your continued use of SugarRush.com after any such modifications constitutes your acceptance of the revised Cookie Policy.
