Cookie Policy

Last Updated: November 12, 2025

1. What Are Cookies and Local Storage?

"Cookies" are small text files stored on your browser by a website. "Local Storage" is a similar, more modern technology that allows websites to store small amounts of data in your browser without sending it back to the server on every request.

At RedPine Playhall, we primarily use Local Storage for essential site functions, as we do not have user accounts or complex tracking needs.

2. How We Use These Technologies

We use local storage and cookies for the following purposes:

Category 1: Strictly Necessary

These are essential for the website to function. They cannot be switched off.

  • Age Verification (Local Storage): We use an item called `ageVerified` to store your "18+" confirmation. This prevents us from showing you the age-gate overlay on every page load and on future visits.
  • Cookie Consent (Local Storage): We use an item called `cookieConsent` to store your acceptance of our cookie banner. This prevents the banner from appearing on every page.

Category 2: Performance & Analytics (Optional)

These allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site.

  • Analytics Cookies: We may use a third-party service like Google Analytics to collect anonymous usage data. This helps us understand what games are popular and how to improve the site. This data is aggregated and does not personally identify you.

3. Your Consent

By clicking "Accept" on our cookie banner, you consent to our use of these non-essential analytics cookies. Strictly necessary local storage items do not require consent as they are essential for site operation (e.g., to remember you are an adult).

4. How to Manage Cookies and Local Storage

You can control and/or delete cookies and local storage as you wish. You can delete all cookies that are already on your computer and you can set most browsers to prevent them from being placed.

  • Clear Local Storage: You can clear your browser's local storage through your browser settings (often found under "Clear Browsing Data" or "Site Settings").
  • Manage Cookies: Most web browsers allow some control of most cookies through the browser settings. To find out more about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set, visit www.aboutcookies.org or www.allaboutcookies.org.

Please note that if you clear your local storage, you will be asked to verify your age and accept the cookie banner again on your next visit.

5. Changes and Contact

We may update this policy from time to time. For any questions, please see our Privacy Policy or contact us at [email protected].
