Cookies Policy
This Cookies Policy explains what cookies and similar storage technologies MyPT uses, why, and how you can control them. It complements our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. They allow the site to remember things about you between visits — login state, preferences, language, etc. Similar technologies include localStorage, sessionStorage, and service workers.
Cookies and storage we use
1. Strictly necessary (always on)
These are required for the Service to work. You cannot disable them without breaking core features.
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| session_id | Keeps you logged in across pages | Session or 30 days if "remember me" |
| csrf_token | Protects against cross-site request forgery | Session |
| cookie_consent | Remembers your cookie preferences | 365 days |
2. Functional (on by default — opt-out available)
These improve the experience but the Service works without them.
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| theme_preference | Remembers light/dark mode choice | 365 days |
| last_route | Resumes you on the page you left | 30 days |
| localStorage:journey_cache | Caches XP and quest state offline | Until cleared |
3. Analytics (opt-in)
We use Plausible Analytics, a privacy-friendly alternative to Google Analytics. Plausible is cookieless by design — it does not set any cookies on your device, does not track you across sites, and does not collect personally identifiable information. It only counts aggregated visits and the page paths visited.
Because Plausible is cookieless, no cookie banner is required for it under GDPR. If you still want to opt out, set your browser's "Do Not Track" header or use a privacy extension like uBlock Origin which blocks plausible.io.
4. Third-party (set by external services we embed)
A handful of third-party domains may set their own cookies when their content loads:
- Stripe — payment processing pages set Stripe cookies for fraud prevention. Only when you reach a checkout step.
- Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com, fonts.gstatic.com) — fonts are loaded from Google. Google does not set cookies via this endpoint, but their IP-level logging applies.
We do not use Facebook Pixel, Google Ads tags, TikTok pixels, LinkedIn Insight, or any other advertising tracker on this site.
How to control cookies
You can block or delete cookies at any time from your browser settings:
- Chrome. Settings → Privacy & security → Cookies and other site data
- Safari. Settings → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Firefox. Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Edge. Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Cookies and site data
Blocking strictly-necessary cookies will break login. Blocking functional cookies will reset your preferences on each visit. Blocking third-party cookies has no impact on most of the site.
Changes to this policy
If we add or remove tracked cookies, we update this policy and the "last updated" date above.
