Cookie Policy

Last updated: 15 September 2026

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser. They let a site remember you between requests - for example, that you are signed in. We also use similar technologies such as localStorage to store your session token.

Cookies we use

Strictly necessary

These are required for the service to work. They cannot be disabled without breaking sign-in and mailbox access.

  • Session / auth token: kept in your browser's local storage as gamermail_token so you stay signed in. Removed when you sign out. Expires after 7 days.
  • Security cookies, used to protect forms against cross-site request forgery.
  • Preference cookies: remember choices such as your dark-mode setting and which domains you have already dismissed.

Analytics and advertising

Non-essential, only on public pages

On public pages (this website, the blog and our tools) we may use Google Analytics to measure aggregate traffic, and Google AdSense to display advertising. These services may set their own cookies.

  • Google Analytics: aggregate, anonymised usage statistics for public pages. We do not run analytics inside your mailbox.
  • Google AdSense: may set cookies to serve and measure ads, including personalised advertising where you have consented. Google's own explanation is at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
