Cookie policy
Last updated: 23 June 2026
This page explains how PlayNib uses cookies, localStorage, and similar browser storage. Core play works without accounts, so most saved game state stays on your own device.
Necessary browser storage
Necessary storage helps the site remember game progress, guest IDs, room participation, puzzle stats, streaks, quiz edit tokens, and basic preferences. This storage is needed for no-login play and is not used for advertising personalization.
You can clear this data in your browser settings, but doing so may remove local game progress, streaks, saved guest IDs, and no-login edit access to drafts.
Optional analytics cookies
Google Analytics is disabled unless it is enabled in deployment settings. When enabled, PlayNib loads Google Analytics only after optional cookie consent. Analytics helps understand page views and general site usage.
Optional advertising cookies
Google AdSense is disabled unless approved ad units are configured. When enabled, advertising placements stay away from active gameplay controls.
Google and other third-party advertising vendors may use cookies or similar technologies to serve ads, measure ads, prevent fraud, and personalize ads where permitted. Visitors can reject optional cookies and still use core PlayNib features. Where Google requires a certified CMP, that CMP manages advertising consent separately from PlayNib's simple optional-cookie banner.
Before serving ads to visitors in the EEA, the UK, or Switzerland, PlayNib will use a Google-certified consent management platform where required by Google policy. Until that is configured, AdSense should remain disabled for those regions.
Consent management platforms
A consent management platform, or CMP, is a tool that asks visitors for legally required consent choices and passes those choices to advertising or analytics providers. PlayNib's simple cookie banner controls optional site cookies. Google AdSense Privacy & messaging, or another Google-certified CMP, should be used before serving ads in regions where Google requires certified consent handling.

Use this button to reset your cookie choice on this browser. The cookie banner will appear again on the next page load if optional cookies are configured.
