What this policy covers
This policy describes cookies and similar browser technologies used on worldsown.com. Cookies are small values stored by a website or its service providers. Worldsown also uses local storage, which remains in your browser but is not automatically sent with every web request.
Analytics cookies
Google Analytics loads on every page in Consent Mode. Without consent, it sends cookieless measurements while Analytics storage and cookies remain denied. If you accept analytics, Google may use Analytics storage and cookies to measure pages visited, approximate location derived from an IP address, device and browser information, referral sources, session events, and engagement. When storage is allowed, Google Analytics may set cookies such as _ga and property-specific _ga_* values to distinguish browsers and sessions.
Analytics information helps identify broken pages, understand which guides are useful, and prioritize improvements. It is not used by Worldsown to build a direct profile containing your real-world identity.
Advertising consent
Worldsown does not currently load advertising scripts or set advertising cookies. The site’s Privacy choices control manages optional analytics only; it is not an advertising consent management platform.
Before advertising is served to people in the EEA, United Kingdom, or Switzerland, Worldsown will publish a Google-certified consent management platform message, such as AdSense Privacy & Messaging, and keep advertising storage, user data, and personalization denied until that platform records the required choice.
When AdSense is enabled, Google and its partners may use advertising cookies to serve and measure ads based on visits to Worldsown and other sites. You can learn how Google uses partner-site data and manage personalized advertising through Google Ads Settings.
Local browser storage
The game uses local storage for functional information including a generated character identity, display name, selected world, settings, sound levels, equipment arrangement, hotbar layout, quest progress, and solo-world state. This storage is necessary to remember choices and restore gameplay on the same browser.
Local storage is separate from cookies. It has no automatic expiry and normally remains until Worldsown removes it or you clear site data in your browser.
Managing cookies and storage
Use Privacy choices, available on every page, to accept or reject Analytics storage and cookies and to change your decision later. Withdrawing analytics consent removes accessible Google Analytics cookies and returns measurement to cookieless Consent Mode. This does not affect the game.
You can also block or delete cookies and local storage through your browser’s privacy or site-data controls. Clearing all local storage can reset consent, preferences, local progress, and the browser identity used to reconnect to a character, so do so with care.
Changes and questions
Cookies and storage may change when new site or game features are introduced. This page will be updated when those changes are material. Questions can be submitted through the contact form.
