This page explains how we use cookies and similar technologies. We separate essential functionality from optional categories (statistics, marketing). Your decision is stored with a pseudonymous ID and timestamp so that we can document it.
To run the game we store a session identifier, language/theme preferences and your cookie choice. The consent is also saved in our database (table "consents") with a hashed session ID and timestamp. We keep these records for up to 6 months (revoked entries are removed sooner) and erase them on request. The information is used only to provide the service and to document your decision; we never share it with third parties.
We load Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics only if you opt into the statistics category. IP addresses are anonymised and the data is used solely to improve the geo game. A marketing category is prepared, but we do not run marketing scripts without your consent.
You can update your choice at any time via the cookie banner or the “Cookie settings” link in the footer. When you disable optional categories we log the withdrawal in our database and stop loading statistics or marketing scripts. You may also delete stored cookies in your browser to show the banner again.
