WHAT ARE COOKIES?
Cookies are small files which websites store on your computer, phone, tablet or other device.
Cookies and similar technologies help websites operate, remember information and understand how visitors use their services.
Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, pixels and other technologies which store information on, or access information from, your device.
In this policy, we use the term “cookies” to cover these technologies where appropriate.

Some storage may be necessary to provide game functions you request.
Where the game uses storage for purposes which are not strictly necessary, we will ask for your consent before using those technologies.
