Cookies on MAKERSTREET

Cookies are small text files a website asks your browser to keep. We use a few of them. None of them target ads, none of them follow you off our site. This page lists every cookie MAKERSTREET sets, what it does, how long it lives, and how to flush them.

What we use, by category

Strictly necessary — always on

Two small flags. One remembers that you passed the age gate so we don't pop it on every page. The other remembers your cookie pick (Essential only, or Accept all) so we don't pop the banner on every visit. Both are session-scoped or last 12 months at most. If you block these, the site stops working as intended.

Functional — only if you signed in

A login token tied to your account, used to keep your session alive while you spin. It expires in 30 days unless you tick "remember me" — in which case it sticks around for 90. Logging out wipes it on the spot.

Analytics — opt-in

A self-hosted counter. Tells us "this many people opened the game page yesterday" without pinning the number to a specific person. No cross-site tracking, no third-party network. You opt in by tapping Accept all on the banner. Decline and we count nothing.

Third-party cookies

None by default. We don't run an ad network, we don't embed Facebook pixels, we don't pull in Google Tag Manager. The only outside service the page touches is Google Fonts, which serves font files but doesn't set tracking cookies for that purpose.

Changing your mind

• Open the cookie banner from the small print in the footer to re-pick.
• Or wipe site data from your browser settings — that resets every flag we set.
• Most browsers also offer a "block third-party cookies" toggle. Doesn't affect us.

If you want it on paper

Email us and we'll send a current cookie inventory as a plain text file. We update this page when something changes, but a snapshot is sometimes useful for compliance audits or just for your own records.
