Cookie policy

We know, cookie policies aren’t exactly thrilling reading. But since you’re here, and probably care at least a little about your privacy, let’s walk you through what cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can control them. No jargon. No tricks. Just the facts, with a bit of heart.

What are cookies anyway?

In simple terms, cookies are small text files that your browser stores when you visit a website. They help the site remember stuff, like your preferences, your session, and how you interact with the pages. We don’t use them to track your every move or sneak ads into your feed. Ours are here to make your experience smoother and more enjoyable.

The cookies we use

Here’s a quick rundown of the types of cookies you might encounter on Minesweeper24:

  • Essential cookies:These are the bare-minimum cookies that keep the site running. Think of them as the “engine oil” that makes the site function properly. Without them, things would break, like game boards not loading or settings not saving.
  • Performance & analytics cookies:These help us understand how people use the site. For example, how many players click “Play Again,” or which mode is most popular. We use tools like Google Analytics, but all data is anonymous, no personal info, no names, no weird profiling.
  • Preference cookies:These remember the little things: your last difficulty level, dark mode, sound settings, etc. Basically, anything that makes the game feel more you.

Third-party cookies

We don’t use third-party advertising networks. Zero interest in selling your data or hitting you with targeted ads. If we embed something external, (like a leaderboard widget or analytics tool, they may set a cookie, but only for functionality, not for creepy tracking.

How to control cookies

You’re in control. Always. Most browsers let you disable cookies entirely or wipe them whenever you want. Just head to your browser settings, clear cookies for this site, or use private browsing mode. Easy.

Just keep in mind: turning off cookies may limit some features, like saving your high scores or preferred settings.
