1.2 Please note that different cookies may be used if and when you re-direct to a different website from our Website. If you sign in via a third party, such as through your Steam, TikTok, Twitch or YouTube account, you are redirected to that provider, which may set its own cookies on its website in accordance with its own cookie policy.

2. What are Cookies?

2.1 A cookie is a small text file that a website requests to store on your computer or mobile device when you visit the site. Cookies enables us to, for example, make available a functioning website and/or to provide you with the best user experience on our Website. When we say “cookies” in this Cookie Policy, we may also refer to other similar tracking technologies that store any data locally on your device, whether they collect any personal data or not. There are multiple types, categories and durations of cookies, which we briefly describe below.

2.2 There are primarily four different categories of cookies, namely strictly necessary, performance, functional and targeting cookies. We currently only use strictly necessary cookies on our Website.

(a) Strictly necessary cookies are those which are necessary for the core performance, security and stability of a website or otherwise necessary in order to provide you with a service you have requested. These cookies are not used to track you or for advertising, although some of them, such as a cookie that keeps you signed in, contain an identifier linked to you.

(b) Performance cookies collect information about the pages or screens you visit and other performance metrics helping the website operator to analyse statistics to ultimately improve website functionality.

(c) Functional cookies are used to recognize you when you return to a website enabling the website operator to personalize its content for you.

(d) Targeting cookies collect information about the pages you have visited and any links you have followed, which is often times shared with third parties for the purpose of tailoring advertisement to your interests.

2.3 Cookies can mainly have two different durations referred to as either session or persistent cookies.

(a) Session cookies remember your activities on a website. For example, they keep you logged in to your account as you browse a website.

(b) Persistent cookies remain over time, even after your session ends. Persistent cookies are commonly used for user authentication.
