Last Updated: October 1, 2026
1. What This Page Covers
This Cookie Policy explains the cookies and similar browser storage used on fantasygolfbag.com, which is operated by Mathews Capital Management, LLC under the name Fantasy Golf Bag. It should be read with our Privacy Policy. Cookies are small text files a site stores in your browser. Cookies set by us are “first-party”; cookies set by another company whose code runs on our pages are “third-party.”
2. Cookies You Can Turn Off: Analytics
These are used to understand how the Site is used. They are on by default. If you choose Decline or turn Analytics off in Cookie Settings (see section 6), we clear these cookies and the tools stop loading on later pages. Microsoft Clarity may finish recording the page you are on, and stops from the next page.

|---|---|---|---|
_ga, _ga_<id> | Google Analytics | Counts visits and records which pages and features are used. | Up to 2 years |
_clck, _clsk | Microsoft Clarity | Session replay and usage measurement: records clicks, scrolling and page views so we can see how pages are used. Clarity may also set other identifiers (such as CLID and MUID). | _clck up to 1 year; _clsk 1 day |
3. Cookies Needed to Run the Site

4. Usage Measurement We Run Ourselves
We also measure our own product usage with first-party cookies. They hold a random identifier, not your name or email, but if you create an account we connect the earlier activity to it. These are not controlled by the Analytics setting above; to limit them, block cookies for this site in your browser.

Other browser storage. The Site also uses your browser’s local storage for settings kept only on your device, such as your theme, display preferences, saved selections and dismissed notices. This information is not sent to us.
6. Changing Your Preferences
A notice appears the first time you visit. Choosing “Got it” accepts analytics, and Decline or the Customize panel lets you turn Analytics off. To change your choice later, use the Cookie Settings link at the bottom of any page. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings, but some parts of the Site, such as signing in, will not work without the cookies in section 3.
