The short version
- Necessary cookies keep you signed in and secure, and remember your language. They're always on.
- Analytics cookies are optional and only set if you accept them.
- Marketing cookies are optional too: they include the advertising pixels an organiser adds to their own event page.
- Change your choice at any time with Cookie settings in the footer of any page.
01The cookies we use
This policy covers eventolinks.com and every EventoLinks event page on the web, run by TUNEDGRID SAS.
| Kind | What for | Kept for |
|---|---|---|
| Necessary | Signing in, keeping your session safe, remembering a checkout or a waiting-room turn in progress, your language and the choices you made here | Your session, or up to 12 months |
| Analytics (optional) | Counting visits and finding problems, in aggregate | Until you turn analytics off or clear this site's data, and never longer than your choice applies |
| Marketing (optional) | Measuring the ads and links that brought you here, including an organiser's own pixels on their event page | Set by each ad platform |
Cookies by name
| Name | Stored as | Kind | Set by | What it does | Kept for |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| __Host-el_session | Cookie | Necessary | EventoLinks | Keeps you signed in. Sealed, readable only by our server, sent only over secure connections and only to eventolinks.com, never to other sites or subdomains | 30 days, renewed while you use it; removed when you sign out |
| __Host-el_console | Cookie | Necessary | EventoLinks | Keeps an operator signed in to the operator console, on its own subdomain. Set for operators only | Until the browser closes; removed when the operator signs out |
| el_lang | Cookie | Necessary | EventoLinks | Remembers the language you picked in the footer, so the site's pages open in it. Set only when you pick a language; it holds only the language's code | 12 months, or until you pick another |
| el.cookie-choice | Browser storage | Necessary | EventoLinks | Remembers your cookie choice and the version of this policy it was made on, so you aren't asked on every page | Until we ask again, 12 months after you choose or sooner when this policy changes |
| el.auth.return | Browser storage, this tab only | Necessary | EventoLinks | Remembers where to bring you back while you sign in with Google or Apple | Until you're signed in, or the tab is closed |
| el.terms-notice.seen | Browser storage, this tab only | Necessary | EventoLinks | Remembers that you've seen the notice of changing terms, so it shows once | Until the tab is closed |
| el.signup.source | Browser storage, this tab only | Necessary | EventoLinks | Remembers where this visit came from (the campaign tags in the link and the site that sent you), so it can be kept with your account if you sign up. It reaches us only when you create an account, and is then kept only with that account | Until the tab is closed |
| eventolinks.directions.app | Browser storage | Necessary | EventoLinks | Remembers the map app you chose under Directions (Apple Maps, Google Maps or Waze), so the button opens it straight away next time. It holds only the app's name and is never sent to us. Change map app under Directions changes it | Until you clear this site's data |
| el.door.installation-id | Browser storage | Necessary | EventoLinks | On a phone used to scan at the door, a random id that keeps it the same door device each time the door link is opened | Until you clear this site's data |
| el.voter-token | Browser storage | Necessary | EventoLinks | A random token that lets you find and change your vote on a date poll without an account | Until you clear this site's data |
| el_unlock_codes_… | Browser storage, this tab only | Necessary | EventoLinks | Carries the code you typed on an event page to its checkout, so the code never travels in a link | Until the tab is closed |
| el_queue_… | Browser storage | Necessary | EventoLinks | Keeps your place in an event's waiting room if you close the page and come back | Until you clear this site's data |
| el_queue_turn_… | Browser storage, this tab only | Necessary | EventoLinks | Keeps the turn the waiting room gave you until you reach the checkout | Until the turn ends, or the tab is closed |
| ph_…, __ph… | Browser storage | Analytics | PostHog, for EventoLinks | Count visits and find problems, in aggregate: pages as patterns, never an event's or a person's address, and the steps that matter. Set only after you accept analytics; turning analytics off erases them | Until you turn analytics off or clear this site's data |
| The organiser's pixels | Set by each ad platform | Marketing | The ad platforms the organiser chose, named in Cookie settings on that page | Measure the organiser's ads: page view, tickets picked, checkout started, purchase or sign-up | Set by each ad platform |
Browser storage works like a cookie but stays on your device; it's listed here too. A test checks this list against the names the site's code sets, and fails the build of a release if one is missing or no longer used.
Some pages also load Cloudflare Turnstile, which checks you're not a bot on sign-in and public forms, and Google Maps, on event pages and in the event editor. They receive your connection's address and browser details from your device, under their own privacy policies, such as the Google Privacy Policy.
02Your choice
The first time you visit, you choose which optional cookies to allow: Only necessary, Accept all or Choose. Until you choose, only necessary cookies are set and no organiser pixel loads. You can change it at any time with Cookie settings in the footer. Turning them off never stops a page, a checkout or a ticket from working.
When an event page has an organiser's tracking pixels, the choice names them, so you know exactly what you allow.
We keep a record of your choice as proof of consent: the choice, the version of this policy shown to you, the time, a keyed fingerprint of your connection's address (never the address itself) and your browser. We ask you again 12 months after you choose, or sooner when this policy changes. The record is kept for 13 months, so it covers the whole time your choice applies, and is linked to your account when you're signed in. Read more in the privacy policy.
03In the apps
The iOS and Android apps don't use cookies. They keep your sign-in in the phone's secure storage, and a copy of the guest list on devices used at the door and the box office, encrypted, so check-in works offline. They don't track you across other apps or websites.
