Cookie Protocols

Last Updated: 25 October 2023

1. What Are Cookies and Local Storage?

In the Shadow Galaxy Empire, cookies and local storage are small data files placed on your device to ensure our simulations run smoothly. They act as your digital passport, remembering your preferences and your balance of Dark Matter Cores without requiring a registered account.

2. Strictly Necessary Technologies

We deploy strictly necessary cookies required for the core functionality of our website. These ensure the Nebula Loom and Hyperjump Crash load correctly, secure the platform against malicious bots, and apply your age-verification status (18+) during your session.

3. Performance and Analytics

We may use anonymised analytics cookies to understand how citizens navigate the Shadow Galaxy Empire. This helps us monitor server load, identify broken links, and improve the overall performance of our interstellar games. This data cannot identify you personally.

4. Managing and Disabling Cookies

You maintain full command over your device. You can choose to disable cookies or clear local storage through your browser settings. Please note that doing so will permanently erase your current balance of Dark Matter Cores and reset your progress in the empire.

5. Consent Mechanism

In accordance with UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), you will be presented with a consent banner upon your first arrival. By continuing to use the Shadow Galaxy Empire, you consent to our use of essential local storage required to provide our free social casino service.
