Cookies, storage and you

Cookie banners are usually where honesty goes to hide, so here's ours in plain words: this site stores a handful of flags in your own browser — your age answer, your cookie choice and, if you make one, a nickname.

That's the whole list. No ad pixels, no cross-site trackers, no analytics empires.

The Cookie Policy page spells it out formally, but the summary really is that short.

One thing we will keep repeating, because it matters: the points here are make-believe. They exist to give a round some shape and a session some momentum, nothing more. If you ever find play stops feeling light, the responsible gaming page lists organisations that are genuinely worth talking to.

Behind the scenes, most of our time still goes into small maintenance: nudging pixels, rewording a confusing line, fixing the odd rough edge on mobile. None of it is glamorous, and all of it is the difference between a site that feels cared for and one that does not.
