A clear breakdown of the cookies AuroraZone uses — and how you stay in control.
AuroraZone uses only essential and functional cookies. We do not use advertising cookies, tracking pixels, or third-party analytics. Last updated: May 2026.
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website when you visit it. They help websites remember your preferences and settings between visits, and allow certain features to work correctly. Cookies are widely used and generally safe — they cannot run programs or carry viruses.
AuroraZone also uses sessionStorage and localStorage — similar browser-side storage technologies that work only within your current session or persist locally on your device. No data stored this way is sent to our servers.
We use cookies strictly to:
We do not use cookies for:
Below is a complete list of all cookies and browser storage used by AuroraZone:
| Name | Type | Storage | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| az_age_verified | sessionStorage | Stores confirmation that the user has passed the 18+ age verification. Prevents the popup reappearing during the same browser session. | Session (cleared when browser closes) | |
| az_cookie_consent | localStorage | Stores your acceptance of the cookie notice so the banner does not reappear on future visits. | 1 year (or until manually cleared) | |
| az_game_prefs | localStorage | Optionally stores your last game speed preference (normal / turbo) to preserve your settings between visits. | 30 days (or until manually cleared) |
These cookies are strictly necessary for the platform to function. Without them, core features like the age gate and cookie consent notice would not work. These cannot be switched off while using AuroraZone. They store no personally identifiable information.
These cookies improve your experience by remembering your preferences (e.g., game speed setting). They are not required for the platform to work, but make your visit more convenient. You can disable them via your browser settings without affecting core platform access.
AuroraZone does not load any third-party scripts that set cookies. Specifically:
The responsible gaming links on our platform (GambleAware, NCPG, Gamblers Anonymous) open in new tabs. Their own cookie policies apply once you visit those external sites.
You have full control over cookies on your device. Here is how to manage them in the most common browsers:
You can also clear localStorage and sessionStorage via your browser's developer tools (Application → Storage).
Deleting essential cookies (such as az_age_verified and az_cookie_consent) will cause the age verification popup and cookie banner to reappear on your next visit. This is expected behaviour.
When you first visit AuroraZone, a cookie notice banner is displayed. By clicking "Got it", you consent to our use of functional cookies as described in this policy. Essential cookies are set regardless of consent, as they are necessary for legal compliance (age gating) and basic platform operation.
You may withdraw your consent at any time by clearing your browser cookies and localStorage. Your withdrawal will take effect immediately.
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page will reflect the most recent revision. We encourage you to review this page periodically. Continued use of AuroraZone after any updates constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
If you have any questions about our use of cookies or this policy, please contact us:
For information about how we handle your personal data beyond cookies, see our Privacy Policy.
