Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how GamesDaily uses cookies and similar technologies. We use essential cookies to keep the site working, analytics cookies to understand usage, and affiliate tracking cookies where applicable.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your preferences and understand how you use it.

2. How GamesDaily Uses Cookies

We use essential cookies for site function, analytics cookies to understand usage, and affiliate tracking cookies where applicable. Some store links use affiliate tracking so we can earn a commission if you make a purchase. This does not change the price you pay.

3. OAuth & Account Session Cookies

When you sign in with Google, we set the following cookies:

• gd_session — keeps you signed in. It is HttpOnly, Secure, SameSite=Lax, and valid for 7 days (renewed automatically while you are active).
• gd_oauth_pkce — bundles the OAuth state (CSRF protection) and the PKCE verifier used during the Google login flow. It is HttpOnly, Secure, SameSite=None, expires after 10 minutes, and is deleted after the callback.

Blocking or deleting gd_session will disable account features, but anonymous browsing will continue to work.

4. Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. Some features may not work correctly if essential cookies are disabled. See our Privacy Policy or Terms of Service for more details.
