Cookie & Tracking Policy
Effective date: 15 July 2026
Provider: GigPigs Pty Ltd, trading as iD Comedy, Stand Up Sydney and GigPigs, and operator of The Comedy (thecomedy.com.au) and Live Stand Up Comedy (livestandupcomedy.com).
This policy explains how we use cookies and similar technologies on our websites and apps, and how you can control them. It works alongside our Privacy Policy.
1. What are cookies and similar technologies?
Cookies are small files stored on your device. We also use similar technologies such as pixels/tags, local storage, and software development kits (SDKs) in our mobile app. We group them by purpose:
- Essential — needed to run the Services: logging you in, keeping your session, securing the site, remembering items in a cart/checkout. These can't be switched off.
- Preferences — remember choices like theme, language or region.
- Analytics — help us understand how the Services are used so we can improve them.
- Advertising / measurement — help us measure and improve advertising, including the Meta pixel and Meta's Conversions API.
2. The Meta pixel and Conversions API
We use the Meta pixel (in the browser) and the Conversions API (server-to-server, via our Signals Gateway) to measure how our ads perform — for example, whether an ad led to a ticket purchase — and to help show relevant ads. This may involve sharing limited event data with Meta (such as a purchase and its value, and hashed identifiers like your email). Where an organiser has connected their own Meta pixel to their event, purchase events for that event may also be shared with that organiser's pixel.
You can learn about and control Meta's use of this data in your Meta ad settings, and limit browser-based tracking using the controls in section 4.
3. Analytics and other providers
We may use analytics tools to understand usage (pages/screens viewed, general location, device type). These help us fix problems and improve the Services. Where required, we only load non-essential analytics after you consent.
4. Your choices
- Consent banner: where shown, you can accept or decline non-essential cookies and change your choice later.
- Browser controls: most browsers let you block or delete cookies. Blocking essential cookies may break parts of the Services.
- Device/app controls: your device settings let you limit ad tracking (e.g. iOS "Allow Apps to Request to Track", Android ad settings).
- Marketing: you can opt out of marketing emails/SMS at any time (see the Privacy Policy).
Declining non-essential cookies won't stop you using the core Services, but some features and personalisation may not work as well.
5. Changes
We may update this policy as our tools change. We'll post the updated version with a new effective date.
