What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored by a browser. Similar technologies include local storage and session storage. They can recognise a browser between page requests without reading unrelated files on a device.
Essential technologies
Essential storage supports navigation, security, login continuity, load balancing, payment-flow integrity and consent choices. Blocking it can prevent parts of the site from working correctly.
Preferences and performance
Preference storage can remember language or display choices. Performance technologies can measure page loading, errors, device categories and navigation patterns so the experience can be improved.
Security and referrals
Identifiers may help detect suspicious sessions, prevent misuse and record whether a campaign or referral led to a visit. They do not provide access to passwords or wallet recovery phrases.
Managing cookies
Use browser settings to inspect, block or delete stored data. Private-browsing modes usually remove session data when closed. Blocking all storage may sign you out or disable preferences and transaction steps.
Retention and updates
Some data lasts only for the browser session; other identifiers remain for a defined period or until removed. Categories and durations may change when site functionality is updated.
Questions
Use the Help Centre or Live Chat if you need more information about browser storage or privacy choices connected with an Astromania account.
