Cookie Policy

Last updated: 2026-04-17. This page describes how pirateschestplay.com uses cookies and similar technologies.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, and pixel tags. They help the site remember state, measure traffic, or support security.

2. Why we use them

On pirateschestplay.com, cookies and local storage may be used to: keep the interface working after you confirm the age gate; remember lightweight UI preferences; distribute load and protect against abuse; and (where enabled) collect anonymous or aggregated statistics about page views and errors.

3. Categories we use

Strictly necessary. Required for basic operation—for example remembering that you passed the age confirmation for your current session or storing a session token if we introduce accounts. The site may not function correctly if you block these.

Functional. Optional helpers such as language or display choices. If you decline them, core free play should still work but some conveniences may reset between visits.

Analytics and performance. Help us see which sections are used, how long pages take to load, and whether errors occur. We aim to configure these tools to reduce identifying detail where possible.

4. Third-party cookies

Some features may load content or scripts from other domains (for example analytics or embedded resources). Those third parties set their own cookies under their policies. We list major categories above; specific vendor names may change as we update infrastructure.

5. How long they last

Session cookies expire when you close the browser. Persistent cookies may remain for days or months depending on purpose—for instance a long-lived preference versus a short security token. Analytics cookies often use industry-standard lifetimes set by the provider.

6. Your choices

Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through settings. You can also use private browsing mode to limit persistence. Blocking all cookies may break the age gate flow or game state until you adjust settings.

7. Do Not Track

There is no uniform legal standard for "Do Not Track" signals. We currently treat DNT as one input among many and prioritize applicable privacy laws and transparent settings in our Privacy Policy.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy when we add vendors, change cookie names, or adopt new practices. The date at the top indicates the latest revision. Continued use after updates means you accept the revised description.
