Cookie Policy
Cookies are tiny text files that your browser drops onto your phone or computer when you visit a website. Each cookie holds a bite-sized bit of info, like a digital Post-it note, that helps the site remember things between clicks, your age-check status, the pages you enjoy, or how fast the images loaded.
Why We Use Them
We use cookies for three big reasons. First, the essential cookies remember that you cleared the legal-age gate so you don’t have to re-enter your birth date on every page. Second, the performance cookies tell us which stories you read, how long you stay, and whether a video stutters, which helps us fix slow spots and make new content you actually like. Third, the preference cookies recall simple choices such as the language you picked or whether you muted our background music, so the site feels familiar next time you visit. We do not set any cookies that sell your personal data to outside advertisers, and we do not let anyone sling third-party ad trackers on our pages.
How Long Cookies Stay
Some cookies vanish the moment you close your browser; others stick around for a few days or weeks so you skip the age gate and enjoy quicker load times. We do not keep any cookie longer than we need for the job it was meant to do.
How You Can Control Them
You are the boss of your browser. In your settings you can delete all cookies, block new ones, or tell the browser to warn you each time a site tries to set a cookie. If you block our essential cookies the site will still open, but you may have to enter your birth date on every click, and some images or videos might load more slowly.
Changes to This Policy
Tech evolves, laws change, and we love to tinker with the site, so we may update this cookie policy from time to time. When we do, the fresh version appears here right away and the new date at the bottom lets you know it is live.
