1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other device when you visit a website. They are widely used across the internet to make websites function more efficiently and to provide information to the site owners. Cookies allow a website to recognise your device on subsequent visits, remember your preferences, and deliver a more tailored browsing experience. They are an essential component of modern web technology and are used by virtually every website you visit. Cookies themselves do not contain executable code and cannot be used to install malware or viruses on your device. At NeonFern, we use cookies responsibly and transparently, and we want you to understand exactly how and why they are used on our free social gaming platform.
2. How We Use Cookies
NeonFern uses cookies to ensure our platform functions smoothly and to provide you with the best possible experience when browsing our free social slot games. Our use of cookies serves several important purposes. We use cookies to remember whether you have confirmed your age through our age verification gate, so you do not need to verify every time you visit. We use cookies to store your cookie consent preferences, ensuring we respect your choices regarding non-essential cookies. We use cookies to gather anonymised data about how visitors interact with our platform, helping us identify which pages are most popular and where navigation can be improved. We also use cookies to remember your browsing preferences, such as any display settings you may have configured. It is important to note that because NeonFern is a free social platform with no real money transactions, we do not use cookies to track financial activity, process payments, or store any sensitive financial information.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are strictly necessary for the operation of the NeonFern website. Without these cookies, certain core features of the platform would not function correctly. Essential cookies on NeonFern include those that record your age verification status so that you only need to confirm your age once per session or within a defined period, and those that store your cookie consent choice so we know whether you have accepted or declined non-essential cookies. These cookies do not collect personal information for marketing purposes and cannot be disabled without impairing your ability to use the site. Essential cookies are typically session-based, meaning they are automatically deleted when you close your browser, though some may persist for a limited duration to maintain your preferences between visits.
Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use NeonFern by collecting anonymised and aggregated data about page views, navigation patterns, session duration, and traffic sources. This information allows us to measure the performance of our platform, identify areas for improvement, and make data-driven decisions about content and features. Analytics cookies do not identify you personally. The data they collect is processed in a way that prevents individual identification. We may use trusted third-party analytics providers to assist with this data collection, and any such providers are bound by their own privacy policies and data processing agreements. You can opt out of analytics cookies through our cookie consent banner or by adjusting your browser settings.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies enable enhanced features and personalisation on NeonFern. They remember choices you make as you browse the platform, such as display preferences or previously viewed game categories, and use this information to deliver a more consistent and convenient experience on return visits. Functional cookies may also support features such as embedded content from third-party services. Like analytics cookies, functional cookies can be controlled through your browser settings or through the preferences indicated on our cookie consent banner. Disabling functional cookies may result in a less personalised browsing experience but will not prevent you from accessing the core features of the platform.
4. Managing Your Cookies
You have full control over the cookies stored on your device. When you first visit NeonFern, our cookie consent banner gives you the option to accept or decline non-essential cookies. You can change your mind at any time by clearing your browser cookies and revisiting the site, at which point the consent banner will appear again. Additionally, most modern web browsers provide settings that allow you to view, manage, and delete cookies. You can typically find these settings in the "Privacy" or "Security" section of your browser preferences. Common browsers such as Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, and Microsoft Edge all offer robust cookie management tools. Please be aware that if you choose to block all cookies, some features of NeonFern may not function as intended, particularly those related to age verification and session management.
5. Third-Party Cookies
In some cases, NeonFern may use services provided by third parties that set their own cookies on your device. These third-party cookies are governed by the respective privacy and cookie policies of those providers, not by this NeonFern Cookie Policy. Third-party cookies on our platform are primarily related to analytics services that help us understand site usage patterns. We carefully select our third-party partners and only work with providers who maintain strong data protection standards. We do not use third-party advertising cookies on NeonFern, and we do not allow third parties to use cookies on our platform for the purpose of serving targeted advertisements. If a third-party service is embedded on our site, such as a font provider or analytics tool, its cookies will be subject to that provider's own policies, and we encourage you to review those policies if you have concerns about third-party data collection.
6. Updates to This Cookie Policy
NeonFern may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, the introduction of new technologies, or updates to applicable regulations. When we make material changes, we will revise the effective date displayed on this page. We may also notify you of significant updates through a banner or notice on the platform. We recommend that you revisit this page periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies and what options are available to you. Your continued use of NeonFern after changes to this policy have been posted signifies your acceptance of the revised terms.
