Cookie Policy
Last updated: August 2025
What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to site owners.
Flario uses a combination of cookies and browser localStorage. Most of your game data (scores, XP, achievements) is stored in localStorage — this is not a cookie but works similarly, storing data only on your device and never sending it to our servers.
Our Commitment
Flario uses the minimum number of cookies necessary. We never use tracking cookies that follow you across other websites. We never build advertising profiles about individual users. All advertising is contextual — based on the game being played, not your browsing history.
Cookies We Use
| Name | Type | Duration | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
| flario_v1_* | Functional | Persistent (localStorage) | Stores your game progress, XP, achievements, scores, streak, theme preference, and sound setting. Essential for the platform to work. Not a cookie — stored in your browser's localStorage. |
| flario_consent | Functional | 1 year | Remembers your cookie consent choice so we don't ask every visit. |
| flario_install_dismissed | Functional | Session | Remembers if you dismissed the PWA install prompt during this session. |
| _ga, _ga_* | Analytics (optional) | 2 years | Google Analytics 4 — helps us understand aggregate usage patterns like which games are most popular. Only set with your explicit consent. Anonymised. |
| NID, ANID | Advertising (optional) | Varies | Google AdSense contextual advertising. Non-personalised by default. Only used for serving relevant, non-behavioural ads. Not used if you have enabled Child-Safe Mode. |
Managing Your Cookies
You can control and manage cookies in several ways:
- Cookie consent banner — When you first visit Flario, you can choose which optional cookies to accept. You can change this choice at any time.
- Browser settings — Most browsers allow you to view, manage, block, and delete cookies. Refer to your browser's help documentation for instructions.
- Game data — You can clear all your locally stored game data at any time via Settings → Clear All Data in your profile.
- Child-Safe Mode — Enabling this in Settings prevents any advertising cookies from being set.
Note that blocking all cookies may affect the functionality of Flario. In particular, blocking localStorage will prevent your game progress from being saved.
Third-Party Cookies
Google Analytics (when consented) and Google AdSense may set their own cookies. These are governed by Google's privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy. We have configured Google AdSense to serve non-personalised ads only, which significantly limits the cookies it sets.
