1. What cookies are

A cookie is a tiny text file that a website leaves in your browser. On your next visit the site can read it back – to recognize the browser, recall a choice you made or measure how its pages are used. Related tools, local storage among them, do much the same job, and this policy applies to them too.

Cookies are part of how the modern web works: they keep pages secure, remember settings and make many everyday features possible. They are not programs, cannot install anything and cannot carry viruses, and each one can only be read by the site or service that set it.

2. Types of cookies the Site may use

Since the Site only publishes information about Ice Fishing – with no accounts, forms or payments – it gets by with very few cookies. These are the categories it may use:

Essential – keep the Site running and protected, for instance by balancing traffic between servers. The Site cannot work without them, so they stay on.
Preferences – remember small choices, such as a notice you closed, so it stays closed as you move between pages.
Analytics – tally visits and show which guides get read, in totals only. They inform improvements and are not used to single anyone out.

Cookies on the Site are not used to target advertising, and cookie data is never sold. When the law requires your consent for non-essential cookies, they are set only once you give it – and that consent can be withdrawn whenever you like.

3. Third-party cookies

Outside services that support the Site, such as a statistics tool or a network that delivers content quickly, may set cookies of their own. They do so under their own privacy terms and decide how long those cookies last. Casino sites reached through the Site's buttons set separate cookies again, covered by their own policies and not by this page.

4. How long cookies last

Some cookies vanish as soon as the browser closes; these are session cookies. Others, called persistent cookies, stay until a set expiry date – a few days in some cases, up to two years for analytics – unless you delete them first. Essential cookies on the Site are usually session cookies, while preference cookies last long enough to remember your choice on your next visit. The browser's settings list each cookie with its expiry date.

5. Managing cookies in your browser

You stay in charge of cookies through your browser, where you can review, block or remove them:

Chrome – Settings → Privacy and security → Third-party cookies, or Delete browsing data.
Firefox – Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data.
Safari – Settings → Privacy on a Mac, or Settings → Safari on iPhone and iPad.
Edge – Settings → Cookies and site permissions.

Private or incognito windows offer another route, since they discard their cookies when closed. Mobile browsers have the same options, usually under Privacy or Site settings in the app menu.

6. What happens if you disable cookies

Switching off preference and analytics cookies does not stop you from using the Site – every Ice Fishing guide, table and page can still be read. Blocking essential cookies may affect how certain pages display, and small choices such as a closed notice will not be remembered. On casino sites where Ice Fishing is played, refusing cookies may make it impossible to sign in. Any of these choices can be undone later in your browser.

7. Changes to this policy

When the Site starts or stops using a service, or when the rules on cookies change, this policy will be updated – a new analytics tool, for example, would be added to the categories above. The version on this page, dated at the top, is always the current one.
