How WrestleMatics uses cookies and similar technologies.

This Cookie Policy is issued by WRESTLEMATICS LTD, trading as WrestleMatics.

For personal information handling, see the Privacy Policy. For platform rules, see the Terms of Use.

Cookies are small files stored on a device by a browser. Similar technologies can include local storage, session storage, pixels, tags, SDKs, device identifiers and server-side logs.

Some technologies are necessary to provide a website securely. Others are optional and may be used for analytics, advertising, personalisation, embedded content or ecommerce.

In this policy, references to cookies include similar technologies unless the context makes clear otherwise.

WrestleMatics is currently an open beta for Talent profiles, Promoter pages, Event hubs, event discovery, account-based workspace access with public self-serve sign-up, limited UK fan merch checkout and contact links. Public listing pages are generated from approved public data and reviewed before publication.

Public pages do not currently use behavioural analytics, advertising cookies, retargeting pixels or social tracking pixels.

When you arrive via an entity referral link or ambassador lane invite link, WrestleMatics may set first-party httpOnly attribution cookies so an approved sign-up can be linked to the correct referrer or lane even if the query string is lost during Clerk sign-up. These cookies are operational, not used for advertising, and are described in section 8 below.

The guest cart may use browser local storage on wrestlematics.com to remember line items until checkout. When Sentry is enabled, session replay is limited to /app workspace routes for reliability monitoring. Signed-in workspace users may receive strictly necessary Clerk session cookies. Fan checkout redirects to Shopify, where Shopify's own cookies may apply. Plus checkout and Stripe Connect flows may use Stripe-hosted pages with Stripe's own cookies.

If optional analytics or advertising tools are introduced later, WrestleMatics should update this policy and add any consent controls required at that point.

Workspace access uses Clerk accounts and WrestleMatics database records. Public self-serve sign-up is available during the open beta.

When you sign into the workspace, Clerk may set strictly necessary session cookies or similar technologies needed to keep you authenticated and to protect account access.

WrestleMatics may also set first-party cookies such as wm_legal_acceptance and wm_welcome_done to remember that you accepted the current policies or completed the welcome flow. Optional onboarding prompts may use short-lived dismiss cookies such as wm_post_intake_setup_dismiss or wm_starter_pack_dismiss. When site holding mode is enabled before launch, wm_holding_bypass may be set for authorised preview access.

Workspace users may also be asked to accept the current Terms of Use and Privacy Policy before continuing.

Event and promoter directory map/list modules can remember the selected view mode in browser local storage using keys such as wm-events-view-mode and wm-home-view-mode.

The guest cart uses browser local storage key wm-guest-cart-v1 on wrestlematics.com to remember cart line items until checkout or until you clear browser storage.

Google Maps loads only after you choose map view and accept the inline consent prompt. That consent choice is stored locally in wm-google-maps-consent so the map is not loaded without your approval.

In the workspace, CardBuilder may store unsaved event card segment drafts locally using keys such as wrestlematics-card-draft:{eventId} until you publish, discard or clear browser storage.

If a visitor has a rights or listing concern, they can email support@wrestlematics.com instead.

WrestleMatics runs entity referral links and ambassador lane invite links during the open beta. If you visit with referralEntityId, ref or lane query parameters, or arrive through a sign-up redirect that contains those values, WrestleMatics may set first-party httpOnly cookies on wrestlematics.com.

The current attribution cookie names are wm_attr_referrer_entity_id (referring entity), wm_attr_lane (ambassador lane code) and wm_attr_src (attribution source type). They are set on a first-touch basis: an existing cookie is not overwritten by a later visit.

These cookies are kept for up to 90 days so attribution can survive the sign-up journey, welcome flow and policy acceptance steps where the original query string may be dropped. At welcome and intake submit, the values may be copied into your WrestleMatics user profile for referral Account Credit, ambassador programme records and fraud checks.

They are operational cookies used to run referral and ambassador programmes described in our Terms of Use. They are not used for advertising, behavioural profiling, retargeting or cross-site tracking.

WrestleMatics does not currently use a sitewide cookie consent banner for these first-party operational cookies. Transparency is provided through this Cookie Policy and our Privacy Policy. A separate inline consent prompt is still used before Google Maps loads.

WrestleMatics configures Sentry in instrumentation-client.ts. When NEXT_PUBLIC_SENTRY_DSN or SENTRY_DSN is set, the client SDK initialises across the site so errors can be reported from public pages and the workspace.

Session replay is enabled through Sentry replayIntegration() with masking settings intended to reduce sensitive capture. WrestleMatics only starts replay on /app routes through lib/sentry/replay-scope.ts. A sample of /app sessions may be recorded in full and other /app sessions may buffer replay data that is sent when an error occurs.

When a visitor leaves /app, replay is stopped so public browsing is not recorded. Clerk user identification in Sentry is also attached on /app routes only, through the workspace layout, Clerk proxy middleware and related server context. WrestleMatics sends an internal user identifier only — not email addresses or usernames.

Server-side Sentry in sentry.server.config.ts and sentry.edge.config.ts captures backend errors but does not use browser session replay.

When a visitor checks out from the WrestleMatics guest cart, they are redirected to Shopify for payment, order confirmation and fulfilment processing. WrestleMatics is the seller of record for fan merch sold through the WrestleMatics store.

Shopify may set its own strictly necessary cookies or similar technologies on Shopify's domain according to Shopify's own service behaviour, terms and privacy notice.

WrestleMatics does not control Shopify's cookie choices after you leave wrestlematics.com for checkout.

Plus subscription checkout, workspace bulk merch checkout and Stripe Connect seller onboarding may use Stripe-hosted pages or embedded Stripe components.

Stripe may set its own strictly necessary cookies or similar technologies on Stripe's domain according to Stripe's own service behaviour, terms and privacy notice.

WrestleMatics does not control Stripe's cookie choices on Stripe-hosted pages.

WrestleMatics provides a Report a problem widget on all pages. It does not set cookies or similar technologies on wrestlematics.com.

Information is sent to WrestleMatics only when you submit a report. See the Privacy Policy for what may be included.

Blocking some technologies may affect workspace sign-in, guest cart persistence, third-party content or map loading.

If WrestleMatics later adds optional analytics, advertising or preference cookies, the site should provide an appropriate consent mechanism where required by applicable law.

Where an inline consent prompt is used, such as for Google Maps, WrestleMatics aims to load the relevant tool only after you make that choice.

This Cookie Policy may be updated as WrestleMatics adds more features, such as broader workspace access, expanded merch workflows, seller payouts, subscription billing or analytics.

The latest version will be published on this page with the updated date shown near the top.

This Cookie Policy is governed by the laws of England and Wales, without prejudice to mandatory rights available to you under applicable law.

Email hello@wrestlematics.com if you have a question about cookies, workspace sign-in, privacy or tracking on the open beta.
