How Club Routes uses cookies

Club Routes is run by Gear Labs Marketing Ltd. This page covers clubroutes.com and every club page on Club Routes, such as yourclub.clubroutes.com.

Optional cookies: only if you say yes

The cookie banner lets you accept or reject each kind of optional cookie. Nothing is sent to Google or LinkedIn until you choose, and we use Google's Consent Mode so each tool only runs with the permission you gave it.

Analytics

On clubroutes.com, on club pages and in the committee portal, we use Google Analytics to see how people use Club Routes. For example, which pages are visited, which routes are opened, how often GPX files are downloaded and which portal screens committees use. This helps us improve the platform and show clubs how their page is used.

Google Analytics is provided by Google, which doesn't store your IP address. Read how Google uses information from sites that use its services.

Advertising (clubroutes.com only)

On clubroutes.com, we use the LinkedIn Insight Tag. It lets us show Club Routes adverts on LinkedIn to people who have visited. LinkedIn sets its own cookies for this, some lasting up to a year; see LinkedIn's cookie table. Club pages never carry advertising tags.

Storage the site needs

Club pages remember a few settings on your device, such as your cookie choice, your watch app, the map style you picked. These stay on your device and aren't used to track you. If you sign in to a Club Routes account, a sign-in cookie (cr_member, up to 90 days) keeps you signed in across clubroutes.com and club pages, with a second cookie (cr_in, the same length) that only says someone is signed in, so a club page saved for use without signal never shows your details once you've signed out. Club committees sign in to the portal with the same account and cookie; portal access needs a sign-in from the last 30 days. These cookies are needed for signing in, so they don't need your consent.

So club pages work with weak or no signal, your phone also keeps a copy of the club page, the club's calendar and routes, and the map software and letters it needs. If you're signed in, it keeps your own details too (the dates you're going to and the routes you've starred), and any taps made with no signal until they can be sent. These copies stay on your device, are only used to show the page, and are replaced each time you visit with signal. Your own details are removed when you sign out; clearing this site's data in your browser removes everything.

Changing your choice

Your choice is remembered on your device, separately for each web address. On this site your current choice is: not made yet.

If you're signed in to a Club Routes account, your analytics choice is also saved to your account, with the date and the wording you saw, so you're only asked once: club pages, clubroutes.com and the Club Routes app use it on any device where you're signed in. You can change it at any time in Settings › Privacy, and the change applies everywhere you're signed in.

On a club page, you can also use the Cookies link at the bottom of Settings. You can clear cookies in your browser's settings at any time.
