Cookies are small files that a website saves on your device. Similar technologies, like your browser's local storage, do the same job. Some are needed to make a site work. Others are used for advertising and statistics, and we only use those if you say yes.
What the site stores today
Just one thing. When you answer the cookie banner, we save your choice in your browser's local storage, under the name htcg-consent, so we don't ask you again on every page. It stays on your device and isn't sent to us or anyone else. It's kept until you clear your browser data.
Our hosting provider, Cloudflare, may also set a strictly necessary cookie to protect the site from attacks and bots.
There are no advertising or analytics cookies on the site at the moment.
Advertising, coming soon
We plan to show adverts through Google AdSense to pay for the site. When we do, Google will show a consent message asking whether you agree to advertising cookies. Google and its partners only use those cookies to personalise adverts if you agree. If you don't, you may still see adverts that aren't personalised. You can read how Google uses cookies in advertising and change your ad preferences in Google's Ads Settings.
We'll update this page with the details on the day the adverts start.
Changing your choice
Use the Change cookie settings link at the bottom of any page. You can also clear your browser's site data for howtocookgammon.com, or block cookies in your browser settings, and the site will still work.
