Cookie Policy for Rotten-Brains
1. Overview
Greetings from Rotten-Brains. We hope that this Cookie Policy will provide you with information about how we use browser storage technology on our website. We are dedicated to giving you control over your online experience and being open and honest about how we manage user data.
2. How Do Cookies Work?
Websites have the ability to transmit tiny text files called cookies to your browser, which are subsequently saved on your device. They are frequently used to improve the functionality of websites and give information to the site administrators. Similar functions can also be performed by other comparable technologies, including session storage, local storage, and web beacons.
3. How We Use Cookies and Browser Storage
Data minimization is a priority at Rotten-Brains. Here is exactly what we use:
- 3.1. Essential session cookie: when you sign in we set a signed session cookie that keeps you logged in. It is required for the service to work and is not used for tracking or advertising.
- 3.2. Server-side account data: your account and activity (profile, watch history, posts, playlists) are stored on our servers so they follow you across devices. What we store and why is described in the Privacy Policy.
- 3.3. Local browser storage: preferences such as theme and player settings are kept locally in your browser and stay on your device.
4. Categories of Locally Stored Data
The information kept on file by your browser could be:
- 4.1. Preferences: The themes and language settings that you prefer to watch.
- 4.2. Session Information: Transient data used to keep your online session alive.
- 4.3. Player state: transient playback preferences such as volume and subtitle choices. (Watchlists, reviews, and watch history are stored on our servers — see the Privacy Policy.)
5. Local Storage's Objective
The data that is locally saved has multiple uses:
- 5.1. Enhancing User Experience: We can offer a more customized and effective browsing experience by keeping track of your preferences.
- 5.2. Preserving Functionality: For certain aspects of our website to function properly, local storage is required.
- 5.3. Staying Signed In: the essential session cookie is what lets your watchlists, ratings, and reviews follow you across browsing sessions and devices.
6. Mastery of Your Information
The information kept in your browser is entirely under your control:
- 6.1. Browser Settings: You may examine and remove locally stored data in the majority of online browsers. For detailed instructions, please consult the help documentation of your browser.
- 6.2. Clearing Data:Using your browser's options, you may always remove all locally saved data from our website.
- 6.3. Disabling Local Storage:You can disable local storage in your browser's options, though this is not advised as it might affect how the site functions.
7. Advertising Cookies
Free accounts are shown ads from third-party ad networks, which may set their own cookies or use similar technologies to serve and measure ads. Those cookies are governed by the ad network's own policies. Premium accounts are not shown ads and no ad-network code runs for them.
8. Modifications to This Policy
This Cookie Policy may be updated periodically to reflect modifications to our policies or for additional operational, legal, or regulatory purposes. It is recommended that you periodically examine this policy.
