This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies EVANTGAMES uses, why we use them, and how you can control or delete them at any time. It complements our Privacy Policy.
This Cookie Policy explains, in plain language, exactly what cookies EVANTGAMES uses, why they are used and how you can control them. The Cookie Policy below groups cookies into five categories, states the legal basis for each and describes how to withdraw consent at any time. If you only need a quick answer, the summary tables inside the Cookie Policy are designed to give you the essentials in under a minute.
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device to remember information about your visit. They can hold preferences (such as your theme, language or last-viewed category), authentication tokens (that keep you logged in), or anonymised measurement identifiers used to understand traffic patterns. Modern browsers also use “local storage” and “session storage” for similar purposes; when this policy says “cookies”, we include those related technologies too.
Cookies are described as first-party when they are set by the domain you are visiting (in our case https://evantgames.com/) and third-party when they are set by another service loaded on the page, such as an analytics provider or an embedded social widget. First-party cookies are typically less sensitive because they are limited to the site that created them; third-party cookies are more powerful and can, if misused, track behaviour across multiple websites — which is why we restrict them tightly on EVANTGAMES.
We group cookies into the five categories below. Non-essential categories only load after you have given consent through our cookie banner.
| Category | Purpose | Type | Retention |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Session, security, CSRF/XSRF protection, load balancing, cookie-consent memory | First-party | Session or up to 12 months |
| Preferences | Theme, language, category filter, layout choices | First-party | Up to 12 months |
| Analytics (anonymised) | Aggregated visits, popular pages, device stats — no personal identifiers | First / Third-party | Up to 14 months |
| Advertising / affiliate | Click attribution for verified download partners, ad frequency capping | Third-party | Up to 30 days |
| Social embeds | Optional Telegram, Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest widgets | Third-party | Varies per provider |
Under GDPR and UK-GDPR our legal bases for using cookies are as follows. For strictly necessary cookies we rely on our legitimate interest in operating a secure and functional website. For preferences we rely on your implied preference (you clicked a setting to change it) as well as consent when applicable. For analytics, advertising, affiliate and social-embed cookies we rely on your explicit consent given through the cookie banner. Consent can be withdrawn at any time, without penalty.
You always have full control over cookies used on EVANTGAMES. The primary interfaces are:
A small, carefully selected group of third-party services may set cookies on EVANTGAMES when loaded. Each is bound by its own privacy policy, which we recommend consulting for full detail.
Anonymised page views and aggregated device statistics. IPs are truncated before storage.
Contextual ads via Google AdSense with an opt-out link available in section 10 of our Privacy Policy.
Click attribution for verified download partners. No behavioural profiling.
Edge caching, DDoS mitigation and bot filtering.
Only loaded on demand for pages that include Telegram, Instagram, Facebook or Pinterest widgets.
Retention periods vary by category. Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Preference cookies live for up to twelve months so your choices persist between visits. Analytics cookies expire within fourteen months. Advertising and affiliate cookies typically expire within thirty days. You can shorten any of these windows by clearing cookies through your browser at any time.
Some of our third-party providers process data on servers located outside your country of residence. Where such transfers occur, we rely on legally recognised safeguards, including the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses and equivalent mechanisms, to ensure your data remains protected to the same standard as under GDPR / UK-GDPR.
EVANTGAMES honours the browser Do Not Track (DNT) signal. When DNT is enabled we disable analytics and advertising cookies by default, even before you interact with our cookie banner. Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals are treated in the same way.
No. Analytics and preference cookies do not directly identify you; they store non-personal identifiers such as a session key or a filter setting.
No. We never sell, rent or trade user data collected through cookies. See our Privacy Policy.
Email contact@evantgames.com and we will action the request within 7 days as required by GDPR / UK-GDPR.
No. We do not use canvas, audio or font-based fingerprinting techniques.
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our tools, providers or in applicable law. The Last updated date at the top of this page always reflects the latest revision. Material changes are announced on the homepage and, where practical, via the cookie banner itself so returning readers see the change immediately.
A well-written Cookie Policy is more than a legal formality — it tells you exactly what happens on your device when you visit our website. This Cookie Policy names every category, its retention period and its purpose, so nothing is hidden in fine print. If a new tool is introduced, the Cookie Policy is updated first and the change is announced on the homepage.
