Cookies

The short version

This site sets no cookies. Not for analytics, not for advertising, not for attribution. That is why you have not been asked to agree to any, and why there is no banner in your way.

The two things that are stored

Both are browser storage rather than cookies, both hold the single character 1, and neither is ever sent to a server.

• cc:loader, in sessionStorage. It records that you have already seen the opening animation so it is not replayed on every page in a visit. Closing the tab discards it.
• cc:age-ok, in localStorage. It records that you confirmed you are 18 or over, so the age check is not put in front of you on every visit. It stays until you clear this site's data. Nothing is stored if you answer that you are under 18 — the question is simply asked again next time.

Under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations both are strictly necessary storage for a service you asked for, so neither requires consent. You can clear them at any time through your browser's site data controls — clearing cc:age-ok means the age check appears again.

Things that reach other people's servers

• Google Fonts — your browser fetches the typefaces from fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com. Google sees your IP address. No cookie is set.
• Vercel — our host, which keeps standard server logs. No cookie is set for this site.

The game is separate

app.playcaptainscall.com is a different service on a different host. It holds accounts and sessions, so it does use storage, and it carries its own cookie notice. Following a link from here does not carry any consent with you.

If this changes

If analytics or anything else requiring consent is ever added, this page changes first and a consent request appears before anything is set. It will not be added quietly.
