Maroon Pixel never uses invasive cross-site advertising cookies. You can reconfigure or revoke your cookie choices at any time:
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small data files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website operators in order to make their websites work efficiently, provide secure authentication, and provide aggregated reporting information.
2. Categories of Cookies We Use
We categorize cookies and storage mechanisms into two distinct types:
A. Strictly Necessary & Essential Cookies (Always Active)
These cookies and local tokens are mandatory for the website to function properly. They facilitate secure server handshakes, remember your consent preferences, and prevent cross-site request forgery (CSRF). Because they are essential, they cannot be turned off.
B. Performance & Analytics Cookies (Optional / Opt-In)
These cookies allow us to measure visitor counts, traffic sources, and page responsiveness so we can improve site performance. All collected data is strictly aggregated and anonymized. These cookies remain completely dormant until you select "Accept All".
