Cookie Policy
How GameFinder.pro uses cookies and browser storage.
1. Current use
GameFinder.pro uses storage needed to provide requested functions, remember user choices and operate a privacy-minimised first-party daily visitor counter. We do not use advertising, external analytics, social-media tracking or third-party tracking cookies.
2. Cookies
| Name | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
GAMEFINDERSESSID | Keeps the user signed in, protects forms and connects account actions to the correct browser session. | Strictly necessary | Browser session |
gamefinder_language | Remembers whether English or German was selected. | Preference | Up to one year |
GFDAILYVISITOR | Prevents the same browser from being counted more than once in the daily first-party visitor total. Its random value changes every calendar day and is stored in the database only as a one-way hash. | First-party audience measurement | Until the next midnight in Europe/Berlin |
3. Local browser storage
The selected language is also stored locally under gamefinder.language.v1. Game preferences, settings and local results may be stored in the browser so the requested experience can continue on that device. This data is not automatically sent to us merely because it exists in local storage. It normally remains until the website replaces it or the user clears browser data.
4. Legal basis and consent
Storage strictly necessary to deliver a function requested by the user is used without optional consent where permitted by law. Preference storage remembers an explicit language or settings choice. The daily counter is operated by GameFinder.pro itself, does not create a profile across days and does not send its identifier to an external provider.
5. Planned third-party services
Google advertising, YouTube, Facebook, other advertising services and external visitor-counter services are being considered but are not currently loaded by this website. Before any non-essential external service is activated, we will add an appropriate consent manager, block that service until a valid choice has been made where required, provide service-specific details here and in the Privacy Policy, and make it possible to withdraw consent.
For users in US states with applicable privacy laws, any future sale, sharing or targeted-advertising processing will also receive the required notices and opt-out controls, including recognition of legally required preference signals where applicable. We do not currently sell or share personal information for targeted advertising. Canadian users will receive any consent and withdrawal choices required by applicable law.
6. Managing browser storage
Users can delete or block cookies and local storage in their browser settings. Blocking the session cookie may prevent registration, login, account functions and protected forms from working. Blocking the daily visitor cookie prevents reliable inclusion in the daily unique count. Clearing preference storage resets language, settings and locally stored results on that device.
7. Changes and contact
This policy will be updated before new advertising, external analytics, embedded-media or external counter technology is activated. Questions can be submitted through our contact form.
