1. What these things are
A cookie is a scrap of text a site asks a browser to hold. Local storage and session storage manage the same trick by another route. All three are set out below, and all of it is published by Arcade Viking ehf. company no. 20421-0160, who keeps Arcade Viking.
Six items get written altogether. Each one sits behind something you can watch working on the page, and not one of them trails anybody to another website.
2. The three cookies
| Name | Kind | Behind what | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
av_grown | Necessary | Holds the age confirmation, so the question is put once instead of on every page. | 180 days |
av_store | Necessary | Carries whatever you settled in the storage bar, and the moment you settled it. | 12 months |
PHPSESSID | Necessary | Written on the word-sending page alone. Binds the form to your session so forged submissions bounce. | Until the browser shuts |
3. The three storage keys
| Key | Kind | Behind what | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
av_hoard | Local storage | The size of the hoard, plus when the daily gift was last taken. Take it away and no bench can recall what you hold. | Until cleared, or until the hoard is reset |
av_since | Session storage | When the current sitting began, which is what the 35-minute reminder counts from. | Until the tab shuts |
av_shown | Session storage | Which reminders have already appeared this sitting, so none of them arrives twice. | Until the tab shuts |
All six stay put on the machine. Not one of their values reaches our servers, and the size of your hoard is unreadable to us.
4. What is missing on purpose
There is no counting package here. No advertising cookie, no social widget, no tracking pixel, no third-party script of any sort. Type is set in fonts already on your machine, and every drawing comes off our own domain. That leaves the Counting and Notices switches in the settings panel governing precisely nothing today: they stand there so that if either ever arrives, it arrives switched off, waits until you say otherwise, and this page is rewritten before it runs at all.
5. Changing your mind
- Open from here, or from the link in the footer of every page.
- Your browser will block or bin site data of its own accord too. Worth knowing: block the necessary row and the age question returns on every single page, while the hoard stops being saved at all.
6. Edits, and contact
This page is rewritten whenever the list above shifts. Questions to contact@arcadeviking.com, or by post to Arcade Viking ehf. company no. 20421-0160, Víkurbraut 20, 780 Höfn, Iceland. Privacy covers the rest.
