1. About this Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy applies to LuaCheia.org and
explains the use of cookies, browser storage
and similar technologies when users access or
interact with the website.
It should be read together with our
Privacy Policy
,
which explains how LuaCheia processes personal
data more generally.
2. What are cookies?
Cookies are small pieces of information that a
website or third-party service may store on a
user's device through the web browser.
Cookies can perform different functions,
including maintaining technical functionality,
remembering preferences, supporting security,
measuring website usage or enabling other
online services.
Similar technologies, such as browser storage,
may perform comparable functions without using
traditional cookie files.
3. Browser storage used by LuaCheia
LuaCheia currently uses browser session storage
for certain account and authentication
functions.
When a user logs in, information necessary to
maintain the authenticated session may be
temporarily stored in the browser using
session storage.
Session storage is generally limited to the
current browser session and may be cleared when
the relevant browser tab or window is closed,
depending on browser behavior.
This storage is used for essential account
functionality and is not used by LuaCheia for
advertising or behavioral profiling.
4. Strictly necessary technologies
LuaCheia may use cookies, browser storage or
equivalent technical mechanisms where necessary
to provide a service requested by the user or
to ensure the security and correct operation of
the website.
These technologies may support functions such
as authentication, session management, security,
fraud prevention, technical preferences and
access to protected account areas.
Where a technology is strictly necessary for a
service explicitly requested by the user, it
may be used without prior consent where
permitted by applicable law.
5. Analytics technologies
LuaCheia may use analytics technologies to
understand how visitors use the website and to
improve its structure, usability, performance
and content.
We intend to use Google Analytics 4 for website
measurement and statistical analysis.
Google Analytics may use cookies or similar
identifiers to collect information such as
pages visited, approximate session duration,
general device or browser information,
interactions with the website and information
about how visitors reach LuaCheia.
Analytics technologies that require consent
will not be activated until the user has made
the relevant consent choice.
6. Google Analytics
LuaCheia may use Google Analytics 4, a web
analytics service provided by Google.
Google Analytics may set or access identifiers
such as the
_ga
cookie and related analytics cookies in order
to distinguish users and sessions and generate
statistical information about website usage.
The precise cookies, identifiers and retention
periods used by Google may change depending on
the configuration of the service and updates
made by Google.
Where consent is required, LuaCheia will block
analytics functionality until the user chooses
to allow analytics cookies or similar
technologies.
Users who refuse analytics consent will still
be able to use the essential functions of
LuaCheia.
7. Cookie consent
When LuaCheia uses non-essential cookies or
similar technologies that require consent,
users will be provided with a consent
interface.
The consent interface will allow users to make
a genuine choice regarding non-essential
technologies, including the ability to refuse
analytics technologies where applicable.
Refusing non-essential cookies will not prevent
access to the website's essential functions.
8. Changing or withdrawing consent
Where processing is based on cookie consent,
users may change or withdraw their consent at
any time.
Withdrawal of consent does not affect the
lawfulness of processing carried out before
consent was withdrawn.
LuaCheia may provide a cookie preference
control or equivalent mechanism allowing users
to review their choices.
9. Third-party technologies
Some third-party services used by LuaCheia may
use their own cookies or similar technologies
when users interact directly with those
services.
These third parties may process information
according to their own privacy and cookie
documentation, subject to applicable data
protection law.
LuaCheia does not control all technologies
placed directly by independent third-party
websites after a user leaves LuaCheia.org.
10. Stripe and payment services
LuaCheia uses Stripe to process payments for
Stars.
When a user proceeds to Stripe's payment
environment, Stripe may use cookies or similar
technologies for purposes including payment
processing, security, fraud prevention and
operation of its services.
Technologies used directly within Stripe's
environment are governed by Stripe's own
privacy and cookie practices.
LuaCheia does not use Stripe's payment
technologies for behavioral advertising.
11. Advertising and profiling cookies
LuaCheia does not currently use advertising or
behavioral profiling cookies for the purpose
of showing personalized advertisements on the
website.
If advertising or profiling technologies are
introduced in the future, this Cookie Policy
and the consent system will be updated before
those technologies are activated where consent
is required.
12. Social media links
LuaCheia may provide links to external social
media platforms.
A standard external link does not necessarily
mean that the social media platform places
tracking cookies on LuaCheia.org.
Once a user visits an external social media
website, that platform may use its own cookies
and similar technologies according to its own
policies.
13. Browser controls
Most browsers allow users to view, delete or
block cookies and other website storage through
browser settings.
Blocking strictly necessary storage may affect
some website functions, including login,
account access or other features that depend
on technical session information.
Browser controls operate independently from any
consent settings provided directly by
LuaCheia.
14. Duration of cookies and storage
Different cookies and storage technologies may
remain available for different periods.
Session-based technologies generally expire or
are cleared at the end of the relevant browser
session, while persistent cookies may remain
for a defined period unless deleted earlier by
the user.
The duration of third-party cookies, including
analytics technologies, may depend on the
settings and policies of the relevant provider.
LuaCheia will configure non-essential
technologies in accordance with applicable
requirements and the purposes for which they
are used.
15. Personal data and cookies
Information collected through cookies or
similar technologies may constitute personal
data where it can directly or indirectly relate
to an identifiable individual.
Information about how LuaCheia processes
personal data, applicable legal bases,
recipients, retention and user rights is
available in our
Privacy Policy
.
16. Changes to this Cookie Policy
LuaCheia may update this Cookie Policy when
technologies used on the website change or
where necessary to reflect changes in
applicable law or guidance.
The current version will be published on this
page together with the date of the most recent
update.
Where a change affects technologies requiring
consent, the consent mechanism will also be
updated where necessary.
