Cookie Policy
Last updated: May 2026
1. What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember information about your visit — such as your preferences or consent choices — so you don't have to repeat them each time. This policy also covers similar technologies including local storage, session storage, and tracking pixels, which we use for the same purposes.
2. Why We Use Cookies
We use cookies to keep Tinta Entera running correctly, remember your preferences (such as your cookie-consent choice and the age-gate confirmation), and understand at an aggregate, anonymous level how visitors use our games. We use Cloudflare Web Analytics as our analytics provider — it is privacy-preserving and does not use tracking pixels or store IP addresses.
3. Categories of Cookies We Use
| Category | Purpose | Examples | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Keep the site functional: session handling, security, age-gate, consent preference storage. | __age_ok, __cc_v1 | Session to 12 months |
| Performance / analytics | Anonymous traffic measurement to help us improve the site and games. No personal data is stored. | __cf_bm (Cloudflare Bot Management) | Up to 30 days |
| Functional | Remembers UI preferences: volume settings on game widgets, mascot animation preference. | localStorage keys set by game widgets | Up to 12 months |
| Advertising / targeting | The site may include third-party advertising cookies from Google Ads and Microsoft Advertising when a visitor arrives via a paid campaign. These cookies help measure campaign effectiveness. Providers: Google, Microsoft. | Google Ads conversion cookies; Microsoft UET tag | Up to 13 months |
4. Lawful Basis (UK GDPR + PECR)
Strictly necessary cookies are set on the basis of legitimate interests (keeping the site operational) and do not require your consent. All other cookie categories — performance, functional, and advertising — are set only with your explicit consent, which you provide via the cookie banner on your first visit. Consent is freely given, specific, and withdrawable at any time. Withdrawing consent does not affect any processing that took place while consent was active.
5. How to Manage Your Cookies on Tinta Entera
When you first visit the site, a banner invites you to "Accept all" cookies or choose "Essential only." Your choice is saved in your browser's local storage under the key __cc_v1. To change your preference later, clear that key using your browser's developer tools (Application → Local Storage), or use the browser-level controls described in the next section. Refreshing the page after clearing the key will show the consent banner again.
6. How to Manage Cookies in Your Browser
Each browser provides its own tools for viewing and deleting cookies. Instructions for the most common browsers:
7. Third-Party Cookies and Services
- Cloudflare: Provides CDN, security, and privacy-preserving analytics. Cloudflare may set
__cf_bmfor bot management. See Cloudflare's Cookie Policy. - Google: When you arrive via a Google Ads campaign and have consented to advertising cookies, Google's conversion-measurement cookies may be set. See Google Cookies Policy.
- Microsoft: When you arrive via a Microsoft Advertising campaign and have consented, Microsoft's Universal Event Tracking (UET) tag may be loaded. See Microsoft Privacy Statement.
8. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control
We honour the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. If your browser sends a GPC header, we treat it as a withdrawal of consent for analytics and advertising cookies — only strictly necessary cookies will be set. We do not currently act on the older DNT (Do Not Track) header, as it lacks a consistent technical standard, but GPC is our implemented opt-out mechanism.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable law. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the latest revision. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
