Cookies & storage
Your choices for Instagram and information saved in this browser.
Last updated: 7 October 2026
Your choice
Instagram is the only optional embedded service currently loaded by this website. It stays blocked unless you choose Allow Instagram cookies. Reject optional cookies leaves it blocked. The site, video and fighter applications work with either choice. You can still open a post directly on Instagram; visiting that site is subject to its own policies.
What is stored or accessed?
| Item / provider | Purpose and choice | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| unity.privacy.v1 Unity local storage | Remembers your Instagram choice, notice version and date. Necessary to honour the privacy settings you request; no advertising identifier. | Up to 183 days. Checked and renewed only when you make a choice. |
| unity.fighter-application.v1 Unity local storage | Contains the form details you explicitly choose to save. Used only to provide your requested draft, never saved automatically. Delete saved draft is available on the application page. | 30 days from the latest save; removed when the application page next checks it, or earlier when you delete or successfully submit the matching draft. |
| Cloudflare security | Cloudflare may use necessary cookies, including __cf_bm or cf_clearance if the corresponding bot/challenge protections are used. Used for security, not marketing; their presence depends on the protections applied to a request. | According to the cookie and Cloudflare configuration; see Cloudflare’s cookie reference. |
| Instagram / Meta | Optional embeds may use cookies and other identifiers for displaying posts, tracking, personalisation and advertising. Meta’s cookies vary with login, browser and service configuration. Only loaded after your explicit permission. | Varies by Meta cookie. See Meta’s current cookie information. |
Change or withdraw permission
Choose Cookie settings in any page footer, then Reject optional cookies to withdraw Instagram permission. Where Instagram has loaded, the page refreshes to terminate its scripts. We cannot remove cookies set on Instagram’s separate domain: use your browser’s site-data controls or Meta’s settings to delete those. Rejection prevents this site from loading further Instagram embeds. Earlier data sent to Meta cannot be recalled through this control.
Your choice is remembered for 183 days unless you change it sooner or clear browser storage. If the purposes or providers change, we will ask again. If browser storage is unavailable, a choice applies only to the current page; future pages start with Instagram blocked.
Other services
Our video and fonts are self-hosted. There is no optional analytics or advertising tag currently installed. Cloudflare processes requests to deliver and secure the website and provides traffic reports without a separate analytics beacon. The application form contacts FormSubmit only when you send your application, with browser credentials omitted; this does not enable Instagram cookies. The enquiry preparation form does not contact an external delivery service.
For form recipients, retention and your data rights, read the privacy notice. Questions can be sent to unityfightingchampionship@hotmail.com.
