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 work more efficiently, provide a better browsing experience, and supply useful information to website owners. Cookies allow websites to recognize your device, remember your preferences, and understand how you interact with the site. When you visit FreeGamesFoFun at freegamesfofun.com, our servers may send one or more cookies to your device. These cookies may be "session cookies," which are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser, or "persistent cookies," which remain on your device for a set period of time or until you manually delete them. Cookies do not typically contain personal information that directly identifies you, but the information stored in cookies may be linked to your personal information that we collect and store through other means. This Cookie Policy explains the types of cookies we use on our free social entertainment platform, why we use them, and how you can control your cookie preferences. By continuing to use our platform after being presented with our cookie consent banner, you consent to the use of cookies as described in this policy.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
We use several categories of cookies on the FreeGamesFoFun platform, each serving a specific purpose. Below are detailed tables for each category of cookies we employ.
Essential Cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary for the platform to function properly. They enable core features and cannot be disabled without affecting the usability of the site.

3. Third-Party Cookies
In addition to our own cookies, we may also use cookies set by third-party services that appear on our pages. These third-party cookies are placed by external services that we use to enhance the functionality and performance of our platform. Google Analytics is the primary third-party service we use, which helps us analyze traffic patterns and understand how visitors navigate through our site. Google may use the information collected through these cookies to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity, and provide other services relating to website activity and internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required by law or where such third parties process the information on Google's behalf. The data collected by Google Analytics is aggregated and anonymized, meaning it cannot be used to identify you personally. For more information about how Google handles data, please visit Google's Privacy Policy. We do not allow third-party advertising cookies on our platform, as FreeGamesFoFun is a free entertainment platform that does not display third-party advertisements. We carefully review any third-party services before implementing them to ensure they align with our commitment to protecting your privacy.
4. LocalStorage
In addition to cookies, FreeGamesFoFun uses browser LocalStorage technology to enhance your experience on our platform. LocalStorage is similar to cookies in that it stores data on your device, but it differs in several important ways. Unlike cookies, LocalStorage data is not sent to the server with every HTTP request, which makes it more efficient for storing larger amounts of data locally. LocalStorage data persists until it is explicitly cleared by you or by our platform's scripts, and it does not have an automatic expiration date like cookies. We use LocalStorage primarily to save your game progress, virtual scores, and preferences for our arcade games, including Golden Grid Scratch. This ensures that your game state is preserved even if you close your browser and return later, providing a seamless and enjoyable entertainment experience. The data stored in LocalStorage is accessible only by our website and cannot be read by other websites or third parties. You can clear LocalStorage data at any time through your browser's developer tools or settings. Clearing LocalStorage will reset your saved game progress and preferences, and you will need to set them again on your next visit. We do not store any personally identifiable information in LocalStorage.
5. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You have full control over the cookies stored on your device. In addition to the cookie consent banner we display when you first visit our platform, you can manage cookies through your browser settings. Below are instructions for the most popular browsers:
Google Chrome
Click the three-dot menu in the top-right corner, select "Settings," then navigate to "Privacy and security" and click "Cookies and other site data." From here you can block all cookies, block third-party cookies, or clear existing cookies. You can also add specific sites to your allow or block lists for more granular control.
Mozilla Firefox
Click the hamburger menu (three horizontal lines) in the top-right corner, select "Settings," then go to "Privacy & Security." Under the "Cookies and Site Data" section, you can manage and clear cookies, as well as set your preferred level of tracking protection (Standard, Strict, or Custom).
Safari
Go to "Safari" in the menu bar, select "Preferences" (or "Settings" on newer versions), then click the "Privacy" tab. Here you can manage website tracking, block all cookies, or manage website data to remove cookies from specific sites. Safari also includes Intelligent Tracking Prevention to automatically limit tracking.
Microsoft Edge
Click the three-dot menu in the top-right corner, select "Settings," then navigate to "Cookies and site permissions" and click "Manage and delete cookies and site data." You can choose to block all cookies, block only third-party cookies, or clear existing cookies. Edge also offers tracking prevention at Basic, Balanced, or Strict levels.
Please note that if you use multiple devices or browsers, you will need to manage your cookie settings on each one individually. You can also use our cookie consent banner to update your preferences at any time by clearing your cookies and revisiting our site.
6. Impact of Disabling Cookies
While you have the right to disable or reject cookies, please be aware that doing so may affect the functionality of certain features on our platform. If you disable essential cookies, core features such as age verification persistence may not work properly, and you may be prompted to verify your age each time you visit the site. Disabling functionality cookies will mean that your game progress, virtual scores, and preferences for games like Golden Grid Scratch will not be saved between sessions, resulting in the need to start fresh each time you visit. If you disable analytics cookies, it will not affect your ability to use the platform, but it will limit our ability to understand how visitors use our site and make improvements accordingly. We recommend keeping essential cookies enabled for the best possible experience on FreeGamesFoFun. Even with all optional cookies disabled, you will still be able to access and enjoy our free arcade games, though some convenience features may be unavailable. Disabling cookies will not prevent you from accessing our content, but it may reduce the personalization and convenience of your experience on our platform.
7. Changes
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legislation, our business operations, or our use of cookies and similar technologies. When we make changes, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. If we make significant changes to how we use cookies, we will provide a prominent notice on our platform, such as updating the cookie consent banner to inform you of the changes and request your consent again where necessary. We encourage you to periodically review this Cookie Policy to stay informed about how we use cookies and related technologies. Your continued use of the FreeGamesFoFun platform after any changes to this Cookie Policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms. If you have questions about specific changes, please contact us using the details provided below.
