Cookie Overview and Purpose
Game Growth Hub uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to provide, protect, and improve our user acquisition analytics platform. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help us deliver personalized experiences, maintain security, and analyze platform performance.
We use cookies for essential platform functionality, user preferences, security measures, and analytics. Our cookie usage is designed to enhance your experience while respecting your privacy and providing transparency about data collection practices.
Essential Platform Cookies
Essential cookies are necessary for basic platform functionality and cannot be disabled without affecting service delivery. These cookies enable user authentication, session management, security features, and core platform operations.
Essential cookies include login session tokens, security verification codes, platform preference settings, and load balancing identifiers. These cookies do not track users across other websites and are strictly limited to platform functionality requirements.
Analytics and Performance Cookies
We use analytics cookies to understand how users interact with our platform, identify popular features, and detect technical issues. This information helps us improve platform performance, user experience, and service reliability.
Analytics cookies collect aggregated usage statistics, page load times, error rates, and feature utilization metrics. This data is used internally for platform optimization and is not shared with third parties for marketing purposes.
Functional and Preference Cookies
Functional cookies remember your preferences and settings to provide a personalized platform experience. These cookies store dashboard configurations, notification preferences, display settings, and other user-customized options.
Preference cookies enable features like remembering your preferred data visualization formats, dashboard layouts, and integration settings. These cookies enhance usability by maintaining your customizations across sessions.
Third-Party Integration Cookies
Our platform integrates with various ad networks and analytics services, which may set their own cookies for authentication and data synchronization purposes. These cookies are governed by the respective third-party privacy policies.
Third-party cookies are used only for integration functionality and are not used for cross-site tracking or advertising purposes. Users can manage third-party cookie preferences through their integration settings and browser controls.
Cookie Duration and Expiration
Different cookie types have varying retention periods based on their purpose and functionality. Session cookies expire when you close your browser, while persistent cookies remain until their expiration date or manual deletion.
Essential cookies typically last for the duration of your session or up to 30 days for security purposes. Analytics cookies may persist for up to 2 years to provide meaningful usage insights. Preference cookies are retained until manually cleared or account deletion.
Cookie Management and Controls

Local Storage and Similar Technologies
In addition to cookies, we use local storage, session storage, and similar technologies to enhance platform performance and user experience. These technologies store data locally on your device for faster access and improved functionality.
Local storage is used for caching dashboard data, storing temporary calculations, and maintaining application state. This data is not transmitted to our servers unless necessary for platform functionality and is subject to the same privacy protections as cookies.
