Last updated: August 8, 2026

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site function correctly, remember your preferences, and — on some sites — track activity for analytics or advertising. This policy explains which cookies VSAF uses and why.

2. Cookies We Use

CookieTypePurposeDuration
vsaf_sessionStrictly necessaryKeeps you signed in to your member account after loginExpires after 30 days or on logout
vsaf_cookie_consentStrictly necessaryRemembers that you accepted or dismissed the cookie notice, so it doesn't reappear every visit12 months

VSAF does not use advertising cookies, third-party marketing trackers, or cross-site tracking of any kind.

3. Do We Use Analytics?

At this time, VSAF does not run third-party analytics (such as Google Analytics) on this site. If this changes in the future, this policy will be updated in advance, and — where required by law — your consent will be requested before any analytics cookie is set.

4. Third-Party Services

Some pages on our site may embed content or connect to third-party services (for example, VATSIM's public data feed for the live map, or Discord for our community server). These services may set their own cookies under their own privacy and cookie policies, which VSAF does not control. We recommend reviewing:

5. Managing Cookies

Strictly necessary cookies (session and consent cookies) cannot be disabled without affecting core site functionality, such as staying logged in.

You can control or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings. Most browsers let you:

  • View what cookies are stored and delete them individually
  • Block cookies from specific sites or all sites
  • Block third-party cookies specifically
  • Clear all cookies when you close the browser

Note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent parts of the site (such as the member login area) from working correctly.

6. Consent

By continuing to use this website after dismissing or accepting our cookie notice, you consent to the use of the strictly necessary cookies described above, in accordance with applicable law.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or for legal reasons. Material changes will be announced on the site before they take effect.

This Cookie Policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains in full how VSAF collects, uses, and protects member data.
