Webplay Games uses four types of cookies on the Webplay Games Website: (i) functional cookies, (ii) analytical cookies, (iii) advertising cookies, and (iv) marketing cookies.

(i) Functional cookies.

1. Functional cookies are essential for the proper layout and navigation of a website. It concerns cookies (1) that are placed with the sole purpose of facilitating communication over an electronic communication network or (2) that are strictly necessary for providing you with the information-society service as requested by you.

(ii) Analytical cookies.

1. Analytical cookies are used to analyze and map the use of a certain website, so that the quality and/or effectiveness of Webplay Games's services can be improved.

(iii) Advertising cookies.

(iv) Marketing cookies.

1. Marketing cookies track the effectiveness of our advertisement campaigns and/or create groups of users that are interested in our products. These groups can be used to try and re-engage users with Webplay Games through advertisements on other websites.

Webplay Games uses four types of cookies on the Webplay Games Website: (i) functional cookies, (ii) analytical cookies, (iii) advertising cookies, and (iv) marketing cookies.

(i) Webplay Games cookies

A full overview of the cookies placed via your browser can be found via our Cookie Consent Module - if available in your region -, or via your browser's Developer Tools which you can open with ctrl+shift+i on Windows or cmd+shift+i on Mac.

(ii) Developer cookies

1. The developers of the games on the Webplay Games Website, can also include cookies in their game. For example, to track how much points you earned during a game. Webplay Games is not responsible for this processing: only the developer decides which cookie data is processed and for what purpose. However, because Webplay Games feels it is important that your data is also safe when you play a game, we took two measures. In the first place, we included contractual safeguards in our contracts with the developers. In the second place, we've prepared this list of the cookies used by our game developers, categorized per game, to inform you on behalf of the developers.* That way, you can determine based on the games you play, which cookies may be placed and whether you want to change your cookie settings because of that.
   
   

   Google Analytics Blockage Please note that we do not use Google Analytics on any of our websites. However, it is possible that one of the game developers we work with tries to use Google Analytics for tracking in-game activities. We actively try to find these implementations and overwrite them for users from the EU. To opt out of being tracked by Google Analytics across all websites, please visit: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

   
   
   * Please note that this list may not be complete, since randomized cookies that are placed with less than 100 website visitors are not included in the list. Furthermore, the cookies used by developers may change over time. Therefore, we automatically update this list daily.
