Cookie Policy

1. What Are Cookies and Similar Technologies?

Cookies are small text files that websites you visit send to your browser and that are stored on your device. They help websites remember information about your visit, such as your preferences, session state, and how you interact with pages. This makes repeat visits easier and the Service more useful to you.

We also use similar technologies that serve a comparable function, including:

• Web beacons (pixel tags): Small transparent images embedded in pages or emails that allow us to count visits and understand usage.
• Local storage: Browser-based storage that lets us persist data (such as preferences) on your device beyond a single session.
• Unique identifiers: Identifiers used by apps and devices to distinguish your device for purposes like advertising and analytics.

In this policy, "cookies" refers to cookies and all of the similar technologies listed above.

First-party cookies are set by the website you are visiting (gamefabricator.top). Third-party cookies are set by a domain other than the one you are visiting — for example, cookies set by our advertising or analytics partners.

2. How We Use Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes, consistent with Google's cookie framework:

a. Functionality

To provide, maintain, and improve the basic functions of our Service. This includes remembering your choices and preferences (such as language or display settings), storing session information (such as items in a list or cart), and executing tasks you request. Without these cookies, some features may not work correctly.

b. Security

To ensure the security of our Service, authenticate users, prevent spam, fraud, and abuse, and track service disruptions. These cookies help protect your interactions with the Service and ensure that requests during a browsing session come from you.

c. Analytics

To understand how users interact with our Service, measure audience engagement, collect website statistics, and improve Service content, quality, and functionality. This data may be collected through our own analytics tools or through third-party analytics providers such as Google Analytics.

d. Advertising

To display and serve advertisements, limit the number of times you see the same ad, measure advertising performance, and — where you have not opted out — show personalized ads based on your browsing activity. We may use Google advertising products (such as Google AdSense and Google Ads) that set cookies on your device for these purposes. See Section 5 below for opt-out options.

e. Personalization

To display personalized content and functionality, provide more relevant results and recommendations, and tailor your experience based on your interests, search history, and browsing behavior. When personalization is disabled, content may still be influenced by contextual factors such as your approximate location, language, device type, and the page you are currently viewing.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

The table below describes the main categories of cookies used on our Service, their purposes, and example durations. Exact cookie names and durations may vary depending on the third-party services integrated at any given time.

4. Third-Party Cookies

We may allow third-party service providers to set cookies on our Service. These providers include, but are not limited to:

• Google Analytics — for understanding how visitors use our site (traffic, engagement, page performance).
• Google AdSense / Google Ads (DoubleClick) — for serving advertisements and measuring ad performance.
• Google Tag Manager — for managing and deploying measurement and marketing tags.

Third-party cookies may be set through domains such as google.com, doubleclick.net, googlesyndication.com, googleadservices.com, and our own partner domain. These providers have their own privacy and cookie policies, and we encourage you to review them.

5. Managing Cookies and Opt-Out Options

You have several options for controlling, managing, and disabling cookies. Please note that disabling certain cookies may reduce the functionality of the Service, such as preference persistence, session continuity, and performance optimization quality.

a. Browser Cookie Settings

Most browsers allow you to manage cookie settings, block specific cookies, and clear existing cookies. You can usually find these options under "Settings" → "Privacy" or "Security". Here are direct help links for popular browsers:

• Google Chrome: How to manage cookies in Chrome
• Mozilla Firefox: Cookie settings in Firefox
• Apple Safari: Manage cookies in Safari
• Microsoft Edge: Cookie settings in Edge

b. Google Ads Personalization Opt-Out

If you wish to opt out of personalized advertising served by Google, you can use the following official Google links:

• Google My Ad Center (Turn off personalization): https://myadcenter.google.com/personalizationoff
• Google Policies — How Google uses information from sites that use Google services (Partner Sites): https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
• Google Ad Settings (manage ad personalization): https://adssettings.google.com
• Google Advertising Cookies (detailed list): https://business.safety.google/adscookies/

Opting out of personalized ads does not mean you will stop seeing ads — it means the ads you see will be less relevant to your interests. You may still see ads based on contextual factors such as the content of the page, your approximate location, or your search query.

c. Google Analytics Opt-Out

If you wish to opt out of Google Analytics tracking across all websites, you can install the official browser add-on provided by Google:

• Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout

d. Industry Opt-Out Tools

You may also use industry self-regulatory opt-out tools to control interest-based advertising:

• Digital Advertising Alliance (US): aboutads.info/choices
• Your Online Choices (EU): youronlinechoices.com
• Network Advertising Initiative: thenai.org/opt-out

e. Mobile Device Advertising IDs

If you access the Service from a mobile device, you can manage advertising identifiers in your device settings:

• Android: Settings → Privacy → Ads → Reset advertising ID or Delete advertising ID
• iOS: Settings → Privacy & Security → Apple Advertising → Turn off Personalized Ads

f. Incognito / Private Browsing

Using your browser's incognito or private browsing mode (such as Chrome Incognito) will delete cookies, site data, and browsing history from your device after you close the session. However, this does not prevent third-party services from collecting data while you browse — it only limits what is stored on your device after the session ends.

6. Cookie Consent

Where required by applicable law (such as the EU ePrivacy Directive, the UK PECR, or Brazil's LGPD), we will seek your consent before setting non-essential cookies. You may withdraw your consent at any time by adjusting your cookie preferences or browser settings as described in Section 5 above. Withdrawing consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.

7. Applicable Laws and Regulations

Our use of cookies complies with applicable data protection and electronic privacy laws, including:

• EU GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation, Regulation (EU) 2016/679): Requires a legal basis for processing personal data via cookies and mandates clear consent for non-essential cookies.
• ePrivacy Directive (Directive 2002/58/EC, as amended): Requires informed consent before storing or accessing information on a user's device, including via cookies. Implemented nationally across EU member states.
• UK PECR (Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003): UK implementation of the ePrivacy Directive, requiring consent for non-essential cookies.
• Brazil LGPD (Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados, Law No. 13,709/2018): Requires a legal basis (typically consent) for processing personal data through cookies and grants data subject rights including access, deletion, and withdrawal of consent.
• US CCPA / CPRA (California Consumer Privacy Act / California Privacy Rights Act): Provides California residents the right to know what personal information is collected via cookies, request deletion, and opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
• COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act): Imposes restrictions on collecting personal information (including via cookies) from children under 13 without verifiable parental consent.

8. Children's Privacy

Our Service is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required for digital consent in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly use cookies to collect personal information from children without verifiable parental consent. If you believe a child has provided information through our Service, please contact us and we will take steps to delete such information.

9. Third-Party Links

Our Service may contain links to third-party websites that are not operated by us. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the cookie practices of third-party sites. We strongly encourage you to review the cookie policies of any third-party websites you visit.

10. Updates to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legal requirements, or our business practices. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page and, where required by law, provide prominent notice. Your continued use of the Service after changes become effective means you acknowledge the updated cookie practices.
