Cookie Policy
A clear explanation of how we use browser storage technologies on RoyalOakGathering.com.
Last updated: January 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how RoyalOakGathering.com uses browser storage technologies when you visit and use our Platform. We are committed to being transparent about our practices.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites function properly and provide information to site owners. RoyalOakGathering.com primarily uses localStorage, which is similar to cookies in that it stores data in your browser, but differs in that the data never expires automatically and is never sent to our servers with HTTP requests.
2. How We Use Browser Storage
We use localStorage to store the following information on your device:
Essential Storage
These storage items are necessary for the Platform to function:
- royaloak_age_confirmed — Stores whether you have confirmed you are 18 or older. Without this, you would need to re-confirm your age every visit.
- royaloak_balance — Stores your current virtual coin balance. This allows your progress to persist between sessions. Without this, your coins would reset every time you refresh the page.
Preference Storage
- royaloak_cookies — Stores your cookie consent preference so we do not show the consent banner on every visit.
3. Third-Party Resources
RoyalOakGathering.com loads fonts from Google Fonts. When your browser requests these fonts, Google may set its own cookies. We have no control over these cookies. Please refer to Google's Privacy Policy for details on their cookie practices.
We do not use any third-party analytics, advertising, tracking, or social media cookies.
4. How to Manage Storage
You can clear all locally stored data at any time by:
- Clearing your browser's browsing data / history
- Using your browser's developer tools to clear localStorage for our domain
- Using a private or incognito browsing window (data is automatically cleared when you close the window)
Please note that clearing your locally stored data will reset your virtual coin balance and age confirmation, meaning you will need to re-confirm your age on your next visit.
5. Your Consent
When you first visit RoyalOakGathering.com, we display a cookie consent banner. By clicking "Accept All", you consent to our use of localStorage as described in this policy. By clicking "Decline", only essential storage items will be used. Regardless of your choice, the Platform's core functionality remains available.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
