Legal and browser storage information

Cookie Policy

Effective date: August 3, 2026 · Last updated: August 3, 2026

Current categories

Essential storage remembers whether a visitor accepted or rejected optional tracking so the site can honor that choice. Analytics storage is optional and defaults to denied. If accepted, Google Analytics 4 may set first party cookies including _ga and _ga_* to distinguish browsers and sessions.

Chess game storage

The Play Chess experience uses essential local storage on the visitor's device to retain the current game and move history, selected difficulty, and mute preference after a refresh. The Reset Saved Game control clears this chess storage, including the saved moves, difficulty, and mute setting.

Advertising and preferences

Advertising storage is inactive because Google AdSense is not enabled. The current preference category is limited to the consent choice. Future categories will be documented before use.

Your choices

Visitors may accept or reject optional tracking and later reopen Cookie preferences from the site footer. Browser controls can also remove cookies and local storage, which may cause the consent question to appear again.
