Cookie controls and browser storage
This notice records which browser technologies can appear on 3witchpots.org, why each one is used and which controls remain with the visitor.
A practical definition of a cookie
A cookie is a short text record placed on a device through a web browser. On a later request, the browser can return that record so a site remembers a setting such as language or colour theme. A first-party cookie comes from the site being visited; a third-party cookie comes from an integrated external service.
Technologies grouped by purpose
1. Storage needed to deliver the site
Essential records support core page behaviour. Blocking them can prevent a requested feature from working. Typical examples include:
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
ru-theme | Stores the selected display preference (Light/Dark Theme) | 1 Year |
__cf_bm | Cloudflare Bot Management - Protection against automated attacks | 30 Minutes |
The stated basis is legitimate interest under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR; these strictly necessary functions do not rely on a separate consent choice.
2. Aggregate measurement, subject to consent
The measurement service currently named is Cloudflare Web Analytics It is configured as an aggregate audience-measurement tool rather than a visitor profile. The implementation described here does not keep IP logs, set tracking cookies or use fingerprinting; it reports totals such as page views and broad device class.
Where consent is required, the recorded basis is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.
3. Attribution after an affiliate-link click
A casino link can pass through that operator's affiliate platform. The receiving operator may then place its own cookie so a later registration can be attributed to this site. 3witchpots.org receives combined click or conversion reporting and does not hold the operator's individual account data.
The operator's privacy and cookie notices govern the exact identifiers, duration and purposes used after leaving this domain.
How to change your choice
Browser-level settings
Every mainstream browser allows stored records to be removed and future storage to be limited. The relevant help pages include:
Blocking every category can also block functions that a page needs in order to respond correctly.
Cross-site protection
Firefox, Safari and other current browsers include controls that restrict third-party cookies and cross-site tracking. Keeping those protections active provides an additional browser-side safeguard.
