Impower Games Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy was last modified on June 14, 2021.


We use technologies on this website to collect information that helps us improve your online experience. In this Cookie Policy, we refer to these technologies (which include cookies, pixels, web beacons and gifs) collectively as cookies. This policy explains the different types of cookies used on the Site and how you can control them. We may change this Cookie Policy at any time. Please take a look at the last effective date at the top of this page to see when this Cookie Policy was last revised. Any changes in this Cookie Policy will become effective when we make the revised Cookie Policy available on or through the Site. Any personal information that we collect through the use of cookies is obtained through transparent notice to you and through your consent. Where applicable, we provide you with the opportunity to opt out. We hope that this Cookie Policy helps you understand, and feel more confident about, our use of cookies. Please also see our Privacy Policy to understand the other ways in which we use information we collect about you. If you have any further queries, please contact us.


What is a cookie?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer or mobile device. They are widely used in order to make websites work, or work in a better, more efficient way. They can do this because websites can read and write these files, enabling them to recognize you and remember important information that will make your use of a website more convenient (e.g. by remembering your user preferences).


Cookie Usage

We do NOT track and sell your data to third-parties. We only use cookies for 2 things:

Account Sessions: Used for logging into user accounts, for accessing any user preferences for browsing, and for caching data locally for offline access. These are technical cookies (such as preference cookies, session cookies, load balancing, etc.) strictly necessary for the provision of the service. We believe that these are considered “consent-exempt” cookies pursuant to GDPR regulations, and therefore are not subject to preventive blocking.

Protection against Abusive traffic We utilize hCaptcha to detect abusive traffic on our website without user interaction. Per the hCaptcha cookie policy, the creators of hCaptcha:

“believe the hCaptcha anti-bot service (i.e. the Service embedded by websites, games, or mobile apps) includes only so-called "consent-exempt" cookies pursuant to GDPR regulations. Examples of such exempt cookies include:

  • Technical cookies strictly necessary for the provision of the service. These include preference cookies, session cookies, load balancing cookies, etc.
  • Statistical cookies managed directly by us (i.e. first party, not third-party cookies), where the data is not used for profiling.”

What Information is Collected About Me

Generally, all data we collect from you is via form submission. Some data, though, is determined from your browsing history. This can include things like user preferences, and session identification tokens.

Here is a list of cookies that may be set by Impower Games or third-party services, and what their purpose is.

@impower/UNIQUE_DEVICE_ID

  • A random unique identifier used to identify your unique device. This is necessary so that your changes to a project can be differentiated from changes originating from a different device (e.g. When you are simultaneously collaborating with another user in the game engine or simultaneously editing your game on multiple devices).
