Cookie Policy
Last Updated: 24/10/2023
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you enter The Papyrine Kinetic Burst Expanse. They act as navigational beacons, helping our servers remember your preferences and maintain your momentum across the site. Without cookies, the frictionless slip-planes of our platform would struggle to recognise your account as you move between pages. They are essential for providing a seamless, high-speed user experience. This policy explains how we use them in accordance with the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR).
2. Types of Cookies We Use
Our platform utilises several distinct categories of cookies to function correctly. We use 'Strictly Necessary' cookies, which are vital for core functionality like logging in and age verification. We also deploy 'Performance' cookies to monitor the velocity of our site and identify any atmospheric drag that might slow down your experience. Finally, 'Functional' cookies are used to remember your specific settings, such as your preferred grid density in Fracture-Planes. We do not use advertising cookies, as our platform is entirely free-to-play.
3. Purpose of Each Cookie Category
Strictly Necessary cookies ensure that you can securely access your Kineti-Slip balance and verify that you are 18 or older. Performance cookies collect anonymous data on how users interact with our simulated games, allowing us to optimise the tension-and-release animations. Functional cookies save you from having to re-enter your preferences every time you face a new Swarm Gale. Each category serves a specific, documented purpose aimed at enhancing your journey through the expanse. We only deploy non-essential cookies if you have given us your explicit consent.
4. Managing and Disabling Cookies
You have full control over the cookies that are stored on your device. Most web browsers allow you to view, manage, and delete cookies through their settings menus. You can configure your browser to block all cookies, but please be aware that this will cause rapid molecular degradation of your user experience on our site. Specifically, you may be unable to log in or access your Kineti-Slip balance. For detailed instructions on managing cookies, please consult your browser's help documentation.
5. Consent Mechanism
When you first arrive at the expanse, you will be presented with a cookie consent banner. This banner allows you to accept all cookies or configure your preferences to only allow strictly necessary ones. You can withdraw or alter your consent at any time by accessing the cookie settings link in our global footer. We adhere strictly to ICO guidance, ensuring that your consent is freely given, specific, and informed. Your choices will be respected across all your high-speed dashes on our platform.
