Scout - Legal
Cookie Policy
Effective 08.07.2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Epic House SIA uses cookies and similar technologies on https://www.scoutgo.app and https://www.scoutgo.app. It complements the Privacy Policy and is published in compliance with Article 5(3) of the EU ePrivacy Directive 2002/58/EC, as transposed into Latvian law (where Epic House SIA is established) and into the national law of every EU/EEA Member State where the Service is offered.
1. What are cookies?
A “cookie” is a small text file that a website stores on your device. We also describe under this policy localStorage, sessionStorage, IndexedDB and any similar device-storage technology, since EU data-protection authorities treat them under the same rules.
2. The cookies we use
We use only strictly-necessary cookies. They cannot be disabled because the Service does not work without them. Under EU law (ePrivacy Directive Art. 5(3)), strictly-necessary cookies do not require your prior consent.
| Cookie / item | Purpose | Duration | Party |
|---|---|---|---|
| Session cookie | Keeps you signed in | Session + 7 days rolling | First-party |
| CSRF-protection cookie | Protects sign-in forms against cross-site request forgery | Session | First-party |
| Payment-provider checkout cookies | Set only during our payment provider’s checkout; prevent payment fraud | Session + up to 1 year | Payment provider (third-party, only at checkout) |
On our website we do not use:
- Advertising or marketing cookies.
- Cross-site tracking technologies.
- Social-media share-button trackers.
- Analytics or measurement cookies.
Our website does not currently use analytics cookies. If we add website analytics in the future, we will update this policy and, where required by law, add a consent banner with granular opt-in choices. The Scout mobile apps do use first-party product analytics (not cookies) - see section 3.
3. Cookies and analytics in the mobile apps
The Scout iOS app does not use web cookies. It stores authentication tokens in the iOS Keychain.
The app uses first-party product analytics to understand how features are used and to find and fix bugs. Analytics events are keyed to a pseudonymous account identifier - we do not send your email or name to the analytics provider - and are hosted in the EU (Frankfurt), so this data stays within the EEA. We do not use this for advertising and we do not track you across other apps or websites; our App Store answers therefore declare “Data Not Used to Track You”. You can turn product analytics off at any time in Account → Privacy inside the app.
4. How to control cookies
- Most browsers let you delete cookies, block all cookies, or block cookies from specific sites. Doing so for our domain will prevent you from signing in.
- iOS also offers a “Limit Ad Tracking” / “Opt out of personalised ads” setting - it has no effect on Scout because we do not use ad IDs.
5. Changes
We will update this Cookie Policy whenever we add, change or remove a cookie. The version and effective date at the top will change. The current version is always available at https://www.scoutgo.app/cookies.
