1. What Are Cookies?
No, not the chocolate chip kind. Although those are great too. Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the website remember things about your visit — like whether you're logged in, what language you prefer, or whether you collapsed the sidebar.
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar technologies we use on www.gamosy.com (the "Platform"), why we use them, and how you can control them. This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.
2. How We Use Cookies
We categorize our cookies and similar technologies into the following groups:
2.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the Platform to function. Without them, you can't log in, stay authenticated, or use core features. They're like the engine in your car — the car doesn't work without them, and you can't opt out of having an engine.
Legal basis: These cookies do not require consent under the ePrivacy Directive (Art. 5(3)) because they are strictly necessary for the service you requested.
2.2 Functional Cookies & Local Storage
These cookies and local storage items remember your preferences, like sidebar state or layout style. They make the Platform more comfortable to use but are not strictly necessary. Think of them as the "quality of life" updates in a game — nice to have, not required to play.
2.3 Analytics Cookies
These cookies help us understand how you use the Platform — which pages you visit, how long you stay, and what features you use most. This data helps us improve the Platform. We use Google Analytics 4 on public marketing pages (homepage, blog, developer pages) to understand acquisition and SEO, and PostHog inside the authenticated application (/home) to measure feature usage and product flows. Analytics cookies are only set after you accept cookies via our consent banner.
2.4 Error Monitoring
We use Sentry to track errors and crashes. When something breaks, Sentry helps us identify and fix it quickly. Sentry may set cookies or use similar technologies to collect error context.

4. Third-Party Services
Some cookies are set by third-party services that we use. These services have their own privacy policies:
- Google LLC (Google Analytics 4): Google Privacy Policy · Google Analytics data practices
- PostHog: PostHog Privacy Policy
- Sentry: Sentry Privacy Policy
- Supabase: Supabase Privacy Policy
- Stripe: Stripe Privacy Policy (Stripe may set cookies during checkout)
5. How to Manage Cookies
You have several options for managing cookies. Like a good RPG, we believe in giving you meaningful choices:
5.1 Browser Settings
Most browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically:
- View what cookies are stored on your device
- Delete all or specific cookies
- Block cookies from specific or all websites
- Set preferences for first-party vs. third-party cookies
Here are links to cookie settings for major browsers:
5.2 Consent Withdrawal
If you previously consented to non-essential cookies, you can withdraw your consent at any time by clicking the Cookie preferences link in the site footer. The cookie banner will re-appear and you can change your choice. You can also clear your cookies through your browser settings; after clearing, you will be asked for your consent preferences again on your next visit.
6. Do Not Track & Global Privacy Control
We honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. If your browser sends a GPC signal, we will treat it as a request to opt out of non-essential data collection, equivalent to a "Do Not Sell or Share" request under CCPA.
Note: The older "Do Not Track" (DNT) browser signal does not have a universally accepted standard for how websites should respond. We currently do not respond to DNT signals but do honor GPC signals as described above.
7. What Happens if You Disable Cookies?
If you block or delete cookies, here's what might break — consider this the "debuff list":
- Strictly Necessary cookies disabled: You won't be able to log in or stay authenticated. The Platform becomes essentially unusable. Game over.
- Functional storage disabled: Your preferences (sidebar state, layout, theme) won't be remembered between sessions. Minor inconvenience, like losing your UI settings after a reinstall.
- Analytics cookies disabled: No impact on your experience. We just won't be able to track how the Platform is used, which makes it harder for us to improve.
- Error monitoring disabled: No impact on your experience. We may be slower to detect and fix bugs that affect you.
8. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when we add new cookies, remove old ones, or change how we use them. When we make significant changes, we will update the "Last updated" date and notify you through the Platform.
We recommend reviewing this policy periodically. Cookie recipes may change, but we'll always be transparent about what's in the jar.
